Just 45 minutes north of Los Cabos lies Miraflores, a small agricultural town surrounded by mountains and blessed with a unique microclimate that contrasts beautifully with the typical desert landscape of Baja California Sur. To celebrate its distinctive flavors, you'll find one of the region's most authentic and charming experiences: Kitchen to the Farm, a new culinary journey from Mar del Cabo that blends cooking, nature, and a touch of starlit magic.
The setting is Tiky Cabo, an organic farm that supplies fresh produce to Encanto, Mar del Cabo's restaurant. Now, it opens its gates to travelers seeking more than a meal—those yearning for a genuine connection to the origin of every ingredient.
The culinary journey with authentic flavors
The experience begins in the late afternoon. Guided by skilled chefs, guests walk through the farm and harvest seasonal vegetables with their own hands. The journey continues with a hands-on cooking class where artisanal pasta and fresh proteins are prepared for the evening's menu.

Dinner, served al fresco, becomes a celebration of local flavor and creativity. While dishes vary with the seasons, some favorites include grilled oregano cheese drizzled with wild honey, heirloom tomato cream with mountain oregano, spinach spaghetti with guanciale, and carrot cake made with fresh farm carrots—a bite of the land's soul in every forkful.
As night falls, flavors give way to stargazing. Gathered around a warm bonfire, guests enjoy decadent desserts while the countryside sky lights up above. For those seeking a deeper connection with the cosmos, a stargazing session is available to complete the experience.

More than a dinner, it's a tribute to the land, to flavor, and to the beauty of the present moment. An invitation to savor slowly, cook with purpose, and gaze at the stars with wonder.
