The 22 Essential Restaurants in Ensenada, Mexico
"Inside a welcoming, white stucco home where the walls are covered in local art, chef Miguel Bahena and chef Carolina Verdugo have embraced a “creative Baja California kitchen” approach to a menu that’s a breath of fresh air and where the cozy dining room is ideal for a quiet, romantic meal. Ceviche shakeado is a combo of yellow tail, and scallops in lime juice with chile serrano, chile chiltepín, and cactus mixed in a cocktail shaker, which adds effervescence to the spicy liquid. Meanwhile, camarones en costra de pepita, or pumpkin seed-crusted shrimp over a piquant shrimp chile atole (spicy porridge) salsa, looks to southern México for inspiration." - Bill Esparza
