Guided Tour
MEXICO CURATED – TRANSBORDER EDITION

Take a journey around Tijuana–a multidisciplinary city by nature!

Start your day with freshly made pastries at La Ventanita del Pan, then enjoy a walk around the block to Café Paramo, both located in one of the oldest neighborhoods in the city.

Your journey will then take you to MATIZ, who carries amazing handmade pieces by local artists. OBJECT will greet attendees with a welcoming mezcal tasting from Tahona Store and a special presentation of Califerne Loteria.

Lunchtime! Enjoy an amazing menu paired with a selection of Natural Wines at VIVO. Across the street find Aruba Day Drink Bar, where Kevin, the cocktail dude, offers a fresh easygoing ambiance.

Last, but not least, a contemporary art show from Galeria L86 at BRECHA, a Culinary Art School sister project.
