Hidden (really hidden) is an oasis in the middle of the desert. Located at Kilometer Marker 176.5, just 7 miles north of San Filipe, is a lovely community of homes built on the ocean and surrounding a golf course. La Caras de Mexico is one of the few golf courses south of Mexicali. It is well groomed and is popular with locals and visitors alike. Sparse on water, the greens are not as green as those in the States, but they are nicely trimmed and do the job.
In the middle of all the homes and greens is the Pavilion Restaurant. The building and courtyard are lovely. Found inside are the golf shop and meeting room right next to the restaurant. Yoga was getting finished as we were leaving. I only saw ex-pats enjoying the property and locals working there.
We sat outside I in the courtyard since the weather was gorgeous. Our server was very attentive and took care of us timely. My only gripe was that I ordered the spinach and bacon omelette, but was given a spinach mushroom omelette. Not being a mushroom fan, but knowing their health benefits, I ate it. For what it was, it was good. The toast was delicious and tasted freshly made. The hash browns wet re perfect as well.
My friend had the Spa Omelette made with egg whites, onions, peppers and cheese. He said it was very good.
Paired breakfast with a couple of Chavelas that really hit the spot.
If you're looking for a quiet, peaceful place away from the hubbub that is San Filipe, come have breakfast, lunch or dinner. The sun and fresh air are waiting. read more
