12th Annual Sabor a Cabo International Food and Wine Festival

December 9 –

The biggest food and wine festival in Los Cabos returns on Saturday, Dec. 9 at the Quivira Clubhouse in Cabo San Lucas. Over 50 local restaurants and 25 regional wineries are expected to participate in the main event, as are celebrated international chefs Dieter Koschina, Enrique Olvera and Richard Sandoval.

Koschina is originally from Austria, but became a household name in Portugal, where his Vila Joya (House of Joy) was awarded two coveted Michelin stars, and in 2012 became the country’s first restaurant to crack The World’s 50 Best Restaurants list. It’s currently ranked 98th best worldwide.

Not to be outdone, Olvera has two restaurants currently ranked among the top 50 worldwide:  Pujol in Mexico City, and Cosme in New York City. He made big news locally in 2015 when he opened a seafood-focused Pacific fusion restaurant, Manta, at The Cape: A Thompson Hotel in Los Cabos.

Sandoval, another Mexico City born chef (and television personality), has now opened over 40 restaurants around the world, from the U.S. and México to Serbia and Qatar. Among his many projects are two acclaimed restaurants in Los Cabos:  hip tourist corridor based eatery, Toro Latin Kitchen & Bar; and La Biblioteca de Tequila, a tequila and comfort food mecca at Breathless Cabo San Lucas Resort & Spa.

The musical headliner has not yet been announced, but organizers have hinted that it will be a famous international group commonly associated with the 1980s. Ticket proceeds go to benefit local charities. For more information, click the Learn More button.
