THRILLIST: Why You Absolutely Need to Take a Trip Down to Tijuana, Mexico

January 20, 2017 mgardiner

Back in the day, when I went to Tijuana I didn't have a guidebook. I just had a friend I'll call Paco, one of my best high school buddies. His last name happened to match that of Tijuana's mayor at the time, and we all used to take his advice on Tijuana. After all, he was, we'd … [Read more...]

September 20, 2016 mgardiner

We’ve been looking the wrong way. For years, San Diegans have been told our wine country lies just north of the county line, in Temecula. But maybe we should have been focusing on a different line: the border with Mexico. Only about two hours south of San Diego, the Valle de … [Read more...]

WORLD FARE: In the open in El Jardin

July 29, 2015 MAG Leave a Comment

I'm not good with disguises and trying would have been worthless. I'd cooked with Ryan Steyn, chef-owner of El Jardin por Ryan Steyn (El Porvenir, Valle de Guadalupe, Baja California), the week before. He knew I was a food writer and his whole place (kitchen included) was out in … [Read more...]
