Food Scene
So many great places to eat, so little time. Each time we visit, there's a new discovery, so we'll try to update after visits.
Flora Farms is great for all meals particularly Sunday brunch, with delicious cocktails and usually, live music. Offered at the farm: organic produce, bakery, gift shops, jewelry store, farm tour. For dinner, recommend taking a taxi as it’s difficult to navigate the dirt roads at night. Reservation recommended.

The town of Todos Santos is a 75 minute drive north of San Jose, past Cabo San Lucas. It's a quiet, magical town with wonderful galleries, shops without the big resorts. I recommend stopping at Hacienda Cerritos for lunch with a stunning view of the water or Cerritos Colony to watch the surfers or take a surf lesson.
