High on my list of favourite things to do in Cabo, is brunch.  There a few better things in life than taking in the stunning coastal landscape with vibrant culinary flavours, with a mimosa in hand. Many brunch spots in Cabo offer fresh seafood, featuring dishes like ceviche or shrimp tacos, which perfectly capture the essence of the region. You can also indulge in traditional Mexican breakfasts, such as chilaquiles topped with fresh avocado.

Here are a few of my favourite spots:


All-Inclusive brunch:
When I just want it all, I head to Acre in San Jose. It’s worth the drive! This gorgeous restaurant has a brunch that includes the entire menu and 2 cocktails per person. After a leisurely brunch with live music, you can walk the grounds to see the puppy rescue and animal sanctuary. I love this spot for celebrations! This experience is available on weekends only and requires reservations.

Sunday Funday:
If you’re looking for football and live music, head to Sanchos in the marina. This laid-back locals hangout boasts a marina view and its budget-friendly. Every Sunday they serve homemade pozole, that is a family recipe from their head cook (I don’t even know what magic that goes into it)… but they start simmering the broth Saturday night and it’s not ready until Sunday morning. Ask for a Hugo Spritz and tell them Fifi sent you.

 

Cool off with French flair: When it’s melting hot in Cabo, I head to see my friend Brenda at Panache Restaurant. This French restaurant has an extensive brunch menu, my favourite is the crouque madame (served with tater tots!) and washed down with a fresh peach bellini. Bonus, they have air conditioning, which is such a life-saver for summertime brunching. They also have my favourite French toast in Cabo.


Feet in the sand: You can’t beat the view as Cascadas Beach Grill. You can have your omelet with the feet right in the sand, and a view of the arch in front of you. This is a great spot for mid-range casual, with a full breakfast menu with ocean waves as your soundtrack.


Local Secret hole-in-the-wall: I was stumped on this one, so I asked local DJ, Yeeyee Solano. He told me about his favourite spot,  El Huarachazo. I have been told that you must order the Chilaquiles con carne or the huevos rancheros. This is authentic Mexican cuisine and a great affordable option! On Saturdays they serve Menudo, a Mexican delicacy. No alcohol served here, so enjoy a café con leche with your brunch.
