Mexican Food Worth the Flight

Cabo at NightI have been so fortunate that I’ve traveled to so many countries and tried so many restaurants around the world! I am often asked where to go, but I try to never to give recommendations for “my favorite this” or “favorite that”.  There are so many phenomenal ones, how could there be one favorite?

Ok, I’m going out on the limb and I’m going to give you my “favorite restaurant”-  It was referred to me by one of my oldest and best friends Richard Holbrook, famous Product Designer and Mexico-Connoisseur.

So, looking for a little sun and fine-food, it was off to Cabo San Lucas!

The last time I was in Cabo, I was 20 camping on the beach and the place has changed.  Unfortunately, I can’t say for the better.  And unless you stay at a 5-star resort like “Las Palmillas”, it looks like another Spring-break hell-hole by the beach.

But hidden away up a little dirt road, 100 yards from the water is “Edith’s”, my favorite restaurant for fine-Mexican food and ambiance.

Forget what you know about Mexican food like Taco Bell, this is sophisticated fine dining.  The guests all look like they walked off a yacht or the polo grounds or something.  The appetizers are mouth-watering (don’t miss the tortilla soup), and the flame-grilled lobster and filet mignon is out of this world.

So, if you are ever in Cabo, or if I have convinced you enough here, go get your plane tickets.
