Fauna
Valle de Guadalupe, Mexico
At Bruma in Valle de Guadalupe, Fauna puts Baja California’s produce at the centre of a contemporary Mexican meal. Chef David Castro Hussong and pastry chef Maribel Aldaco Silva work with the region’s ingredients in a dining room that opens towards gardens and the surrounding wine country. The setting is an important part of the experience, but the cooking gives visitors a reason to make the journey in its own right. Expect an inventive approach rather than a catalogue of familiar Mexican dishes. The restaurant’s connection to Bruma brings together dining, vineyards and accommodation, making Fauna a natural choice for travellers exploring the Guadalupe Valley.
