On my first trip crossing the US/Mexico border at San Yisidro, just outside of San Diego, I spent a week across the border discovering the best things to do in Tijuana, Mexico. On this trip, we’re taking Baja a bit further with a Mexican Road Trip from Tijuana to Rosarito, Puerto Nuevo, Ensenada, Valle de Guadalupe, Tecate and Mexicali. The state of Baja California in Northern Mexico is home to beautiful landscapes and delicious Mexican food, and I’m on a mission to explore the best things to do (and eat) across the region! On this first episode of Travel Deeper Mexico (Baja Edition), we head south from Tijuana to Rosarito, Mexico where we eat an incredible breakfast at El Nido Restaurant in downtown Rosarito. The main attraction here is Machaca de Venado, or shredded deer meat with quail eggs and freshly made tortillas. El Nido Restaurant has been here since the 1970s and it is a must-stop on your way down through Baja to Ensenada. Next we made a quick stop at the Playas of Rosarito for a coconut water, and to watch all the hungover souls from a wild weekend and Papas and Beer and the other beachside clubs in Rosarito. Rosarito is very well known to be a party city, and many spring breakers come down to enjoy the bars and clubs here. While still in Rosarito, we head over to Tacos El Yaqui, one of the most recommended places on this Baja trip. Tacos El Yaqui is also a Rosarito staple, established in the 1980s. The main attraction here (and only thing they sell) is the carne asada tacos on flour tortillas. Tacos El Yaqui was honestly one of the best tacos I've had in Mexico... and thus, one of the best Mexican Foods I've ever had. From Rosarito, we drove south down Baja to Puerto Nuevo; said to be the Lobster Capital of Mexico. They actually sell more lobster in Puerto Nuevo than anywhere else in the world. We visited Ortega's Restaurant overlooking the water, and had a beautiful and delicious spread of sweet, tender lobster! Again, with incredible homemade tortillas, rice, beans, and lots of great salsas. If you ever have the chance, I highly recommend coming to Baja and driving to Puerto Nuevo. The lobster here was incredible! From Puerto Nuevo, we keep driving south to Ensenada, where we will explore the best things to do in Ensenada on the following day. Our first day back in Baja California, Mexico was perfect, and I can't wait to share the rest of the episodes from this Mexican road trip with you, as we seek out the best things to do and best Mexican Food in Tijuana, Rosarito, Ensenada, Puerto Nuevo, Ticate, Mexicali, and my personal favorite Valle de Guadalupe, Mexico's wine country!
