Drink of the Week: The Bilbao at Fellow, Los Angeles

  • November 16, 2021
  • Brad A. Johnson
At Fellow in Los Angeles, The Bilboa is a modern riff on a gin martini made with rosemary-lemon-infused vermouth. It is herbal and citrusy and floral and fresh yet also surprisingly viscous and creamy, making it extremely enjoyable to sip.

Update – Review: Acre, Farm-to-Table in San Jose del Cabo, Mexico

  • June 27, 2021
  • Brad A. Johnson
A lot has changed at Acre in San Jose del Cabo since I originally visited and fell in love with this restaurant five years ago. But many things also remain the same. The restaurant still sits in the middle of a dusty, 25 acre farm on the outskirts of town, accessible by a meandering dirt road...

  • June 13, 2021
  • Brad A. Johnson
Mexican cuisine in Los Cabos has for decades been defined by steak and lobster. If not for the accompanying margaritas and periodic mariachi, one might have easily forgotten they were in Mexico. But that's changing. These are the restaurants redefining what it means to eat Mexican food in Los Cabos.

Hotel Review: Nobu, Los Cabos, Mexico

  • June 6, 2021
  • Brad A. Johnson
Nobu Hotel is a vibe, not a place. Opened in 2019 on the sparsely developed Pacific cape of Cabo San Lucas, this 200-room outpost is a sexy mashup of Japanese and Mexican motifs with a soundtrack straight out of Ibiza.

Hotel Review: The Cape, Los Cabos, Mexico

  • May 31, 2021
  • Brad A. Johnson
Thompson Hotels' first foray into Mexico, The Cape Hotel opened several years ago at the southern edge of the tourist corridor that connects Cabo San Lucas on the south with San Jose del Cabo to the north. This is where the Pacific merges with the Sea of Cortés. A bargain for Los Cabos, this is a fun, sexy hotel.

Hey, OC. FYI in case you missed it, @ryegoods has opened a new location on Red Hill in Tustin, just down the street from Flight/Mess Hall. Same incredible breads and pastries as the original on the peninsula. No lines here, plus a huge seating area. #sourdough #pastries #coffee #orangecounty 322 9
One more post from our lovely stay at @fstokyo. Delicious lunch at @maisonmarunouchi, the casual sibling to @sezannetokyo. Excellent all around. And clearly popular with Tokyo's ladies who lunch: the clientele during our visit, almost entirely women. Quite the see-and-be-seen crowd. 57 1
I’m not sure which I liked better about the @fstokyo, the valet greeter and escort from the train station, the view of the trains from our room, or the super comfy pajamas. Excellent service all around. #Tokyo #Japan #hoteljunkie 79 3
I think @sezannetokyo ⁠has a #footfetish, and I’m ok with that. Truly fantastic lunch. Impeccable service. ⁠ 63 1
We had a really fun "Lost in Translation" moment at @meatman_roppongi. Google Translate failed hilariously. Delicious meat/fat overload anyway. Great staff, charming hospitality. Lots of sake. Thank you, @fstokyo for securing the reservation! #Tokyo #Roppongi #sake 76 1
Well, that was interesting.  A toast to 2022. And looking forward to ‘23. Cheers, and safe travels to all. 81 1
