During my research of Tijuana, the resturant Misión 19 appeared again and again. We booked a reservation before we even left LA! Misión 19 is the flagship restaurant by Javier Plascencia. He introduced a new style of cooking aptly called Baja Med. It takes advantage of local and traditional Mexican ingredients and pairs them with Mediterranean and Asian cooking styles. All of the ingredients come from a 120 mile radius of the restaurant.
We ordered the 6 course chef's tasting menu and loved every single dish that came out. The combinations of ingredients, technique, and presentation were phenomenal. This was by far my favorite meal of the trip.
