Today’s episode of Baja Window to the South is all about the food and gastronomy of Baja California as we go to the Galardón Gastrónomico 2023 event where the best restaurants in Rosarito were awarded for their great cuisine!👩🍳
We also speak with Chef Ruffo Ibarra of ORYX Restaurant who tells us about how he started cooking, his participation at Bocuse d’Or, and what his team winning the Social Commitment Award means for Mexico🏆
Meanwhile, Baja Californian Chef Javier Plascencia won the Chef of the Year Award at Guía México Gastrónomico (Mexico’s Gastronomic Guide) 2023. Congratulations to this Baja Californian gastronomic talent!🥇
Our host Olga SanchezdelaVega learns all about Proyecto Salesiano Tijuana, A.C., a charity organization that provides shelter, food, education, and workshops for kids, teenagers, and young adults❤️
Finally, our foodie Denisse Jacobo (Foodiefromtj) goes to Manhattan Lounge Bar Tj in Tijuana: a 1920s-themed bar where she tries out their deliciously tasty smoked cocktails!🍹
