La Tuna in San Jose del Cabo honours local traditions combined with the chef's own influences. The margaritas are great too! Here's the article on the family behind this hot new... Continue Reading →
Dinner at Cascadas Beach Grill is always a highlight! Club Cascadas de Baja has always struck me as a true original: the unique design, the intimate size, the cozy comfort, and the friendly staff all make it a welcoming environment. While I have never had the pleasure of staying at Club Cascadas, I often wander... Continue Reading →
A friend's daughter recently graduated from high school, and the friend asked for recipes for her "college survival kit." I dug out this recipe of my mother's because it's an easy and tasty supper dish, and great for a student because it would give her several portions at a reasonable cost. The Bisquick holds the...

There’s something special about homemade soup, especially when it’s made with fresh garden vegetables. My friend Cheryl introduced me to this variation on borscht that I had never experienced before.

We were fortunate this week to have friends visit and offer to make us fresh ceviche. This is a traditional dish made with raw fish and fresh produce. Its origins are thought to be Peru, but it is found in many coastal areas throughout Latin America, where fresh fish is in abundance. I am nervous about... Continue Reading →
One of my favourite delights of fall is making borscht with fresh vegetables. In recent years, I would visit the farmers' market and the butcher to get what I needed. This year, I was able to make this soup with my own harvest and the generosity of some neighbours. Borscht is made many different ways.... Continue Reading →
