Dobson's to Host Baja Food & Wine Week from March 9-14

Dobson’s Bar & Restaurant’s acclaimed Chef Martin San Roman, recently named a culinary Ambassador of Baja as part of the Baja California Ministry of Tourism’s Outstanding Host program, will present a week-long celebration of the cuisine and wines of the region from March 9-14.

The Baja French inspired dinner will feature four courses paired with wines from Guadalupe Valley, known as the Napa Valley of Mexico, including Alximia Winery, Monte Xanic and Las Nubes. The dinner is $60 per person and includes 3 tastings of wine (tax and gratuity are additional). Reservations are highly recommended.

Each dish in the celebratory menu will marry Chef Martin’s classically French techniques with select ingredients and flavors from Baja.

• First Course: Bleu corn tostada served with mussels and chanterelle mushrooms, pinto beans and chicharron or baked Baja clams with chorizo, smoked marlin, and gratin with Ramonetti cheese;
• Second Course: Cream of lobster Puerto Nuevo style or Tempura oysters and arugula salad with wine caramelized carrots and prune vinaigrette;
• Third Course: Braised short rib with red wine, black olive and Pasilla chile sauce over a grilled fresh cactus or fresh scallops on a crust of ancho chile and molasses and mango chives beurre blanc or grilled Tecate quails with fig sauce and red wine risotto; and
• Fourth Course: Apple burrito with vanilla and olive oil ice cream or date and cheese tart.
