We say goodbye to Los Cabos the only way we know how… with a margarita in hand and ceviche on the table.

This shrimp ceviche served inside a pineapple was an absolute standout. Fresh, bright, a little tropical, and such a fun creation—we loved every bite. 🤤

Los Cabos, you’ve been delicious. ❤️

Now… onto the next stop of our sourcing adventure. 🔥

Another day, another Baja adventure.

Today we went snorkeling in La Paz and found ourselves surrounded by all kinds of beautiful fish—including this little pufferfish.

And because no Casa Fuego day is complete without eating something delicious, we made our way to the iconic Birksmarcito on the Malecón for another ceviche verde.🍤

Only two weeks left of our sourcing trip, and we’re getting more excited by the day. We’ve found some amazing things along the way, and we absolutely cannot wait to bring them home and start adding them to the Casa Fuego menu.

Another day, another aguachile.

Today was all about slowing down, relaxing, and enjoying a sunny day in Cabo San Lucas. We started with an aguachile verde—fresh shrimp covered in a bright, spicy sauce made with lime juice, fresh cilantro, green chiles, cucumber, and a little salt. Fresh, cold, spicy, tangy… basically the perfect way to start a Baja day!!

Then we took a walk around the marina before discovering Santa Maria Beach —a beautiful little spot with crystal-clear turquoise water, golden sand, and the kind of views that make you want to stay all day.

And of course, we had to finish the day with a Cabo sunset. Watching the sky change from bright blue to warm oranges, pinks, and purples was the perfect ending to another delicious day in Baja.

The sourcing trip continues… and apparently so does our aguachile addiction. 🤤

What a beautiful surprise I had this evening!

Today was an exhausting day. After traveling and doing so much since leaving Comox, it felt especially hard to get out of bed this morning… and even harder to get on another flight.

Casa Fuego is currently in Cabo San Lucas, and we’re here to discover the flavors that surround the amazing La Baja — especially all the incredible seafood and regional cuisine. 🌵🌊🦐

After arriving at our hotel, all we wanted was a small, quiet place where we could have a delicious dinner, slow down, and simply relax for the night.

And then we found "Cenaduría Casa León".

What a beautiful surprise! An amazing Mexican restaurant serving authentic antojitos, with the kind of atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. The decoration, the music, the flavors… everything was just perfect!

For those who may not know, a cenaduría is a traditional Mexican eatery, usually a casual, cozy place that opens in the afternoon or evening and specializes in homemade-style antojitos: tacos, tostadas, enchiladas, sopes, quesadillas, pozole and many other comforting Mexican dishes. They’re the kind of places where you go to eat something delicious, enjoy good conversation, and feel a little bit of Mexico in every bite.

Tonight, after such a long day, Casa Fuego couldn’t have asked for a better little discovery.

And this is only the beginning of our Baja culinary adventure…

Today Casa Fuego explored MERCADO HIDALGO TIJUANA — one of those places where you can truly feel the heart of Mexican food and culture!

This traditional market is a must-visit if you want to discover local ingredients, flavors, and products all under one roof. And of course, we couldn’t leave without exploring every corner!!! 👀

From piles of dried chiles, spices and Mexican cheeses, to beautiful clay dishes, molcajetes, traditional Mexican candy, piñatas and so much more… you can find pretty much everything you can imagine!

For Casa Fuego, places like this are always a source of inspiration. We love seeing the ingredients, cookware, colors, and traditions that make Mexican cuisine so special.

Another day of exploring, tasting, and bringing a little more of Mexico back with us! 🇲🇽

Another stop at one of my all-time favorite taco spots in Tijuana: El Auténtico Taco Tijuanero ®, formerly known as Taconazo!

This place brings back so many memories, and every time I’m in TJ, I have to come back for these tacos. Their adobada tacos are packed with flavor, especially when you add their chile de árbol salsa 🌶️🔥 — that combination is SO good!

But honestly… the star for me is their cilantro cream salsa. It is absolutely to die for! Creamy, fresh, full of cilantro flavor, and somehow it makes those tacos even better.

Tijuana has no shortage of amazing taco spots, but this one will always have a special place on my list. 🌮

A little piece of Mexico in every detail.

Today we stopped at a Mexican expo and couldn’t resist admiring all these beautiful handmade clay pots, cups, plates and traditional sets.

There’s something so special about Mexican pottery—the colors, the textures, the craftsmanship, and the traditions behind every piece.

As Casa Fuego, we’re always inspired by the beautiful things Mexico creates and the stories behind them. 🔥🇲🇽

From one little taco truck to a Tijuana favorite!

I’ve been coming to Tacos El Nuevo Poblano for many, many years, back when it was just one small truck parked in a corner.

It’s amazing to see how much it has grown! That little corner is now home to their beautiful, completely renovated spot, with lots of tables, bathrooms, multiple trompos of adobada, and a space that is always full of people!

They make their tortillas from scratch right in front of you, you can see the whole process, and their REAL guacamole is absolutely delicious. And of course, their tacos de asada are some of my favorites in Tijuana!

As Casa Fuego, stops like this are a huge part of our sourcing trip. We come back to places that have inspired us for years, looking for flavors, traditions, and ideas that keep us connected to authentic Mexican food. ❤️

Watching a small taco truck grow into something this special is truly inspiring. 🔥

After driving through the stunning La Rumorosa, surrounded by massive hills, dramatic rock formations, and breathtaking views, we made our way to Tecate, Pueblo Mágico.

And of course, we couldn’t visit Tecate without stopping at El Mejor Pan de Tecate, one of the town’s beloved bakeries! Tecate is famous for its traditional pan dulce, and this place had everything we could dream of — conchas, puerquitos, donuts, orejas, and so many more freshly baked treats.

A sweet stop on our Mexican sourcing adventure… because no road trip through Baja is complete without pan dulce! ❤️

Before heading to the next town, we had to make one last stop at Centolita, a little local market where you can find some of the best machaca in town.

Machaca is a traditional northern Mexican ingredient made from dried, seasoned beef that is shredded into fine pieces. Traditionally, drying meat was a practical way to preserve it in the hot, dry climate of northern Mexico. Today, it’s a beloved staple—especially for breakfast with eggs, tomatoes, onion, and chile, or in tacos, burritos, and so many other dishes.

And of course, we couldn’t leave Navojoa without stocking up on regional dried chiles!🌶️ These local ingredients are exactly what we come looking for on our sourcing trips—authentic flavors that carry the character of each region and inspire what we create at Casa Fuego.

One last taste of Navojoa, one more stop for ingredients, and now we're getting ready for the next town and the next flavor adventure! 🇲🇽🔥
