Edith's Restaurant - Menu Sample
Edith's Restaurant - The cuisine of the Baja Peninsula
|
Salads
The Orchards of the Todos Santos oasis have traditionally supplied vegetables to the Cape region, happily, noeadays some varieties are grown that, up to a few years ago, here were completely unknown. |
Caesar
Proudly prepared at your table, for two or more diners, according to the original recipe from the Caesar's Hotel in Tijuana, probably the best known dish originating in Baja. |
Mixed
An anthology of the greens and vegetables grown organically in the region of Pescadero & Todos Santos, washed only with purified water. Ask your waiter about our family salad. |
Choice of Dressings
Extra virgin olive oil & balsamic vinegar; Ranch; Italian; Thousand islands; Blue cheese. |
|
Soups
The difference between soups and outright stews is very subtle, if any, in Baja cooking, so we have limited ourselves to offering those ideally suited to start your meal. |
Aztec Soup
A traditional tortilla soup, garnished with roast dried guajillo peppers, cheese & avocado. |
Today's Soup, Bisque or Chowder
Depending on the freshest produce from the orchards of Todos Santos or the catch of the day in Punta Lobos; different every day. Your waiter will gladly inform you. |
|
Special cheese turnovers
Hand- patted corn or wheat flour tortillas, cooked on the griddle and stuffed with cheese, fresh mushrooms, red bell peppers and bacon. |
Cheese turnovers
The hand- made tortillas, be they corn or flour, together with the regional cheese, make these unique. |
