"El Gato y el Pinguino" (The Cat and the Penguin!) restaurant in Old Mill, San Quintin


Hi

Being thousands of miles from Baja and missing it terribly, I was flicking through the tv channels yesterday in England and came across a 30 min travelogue devoted to a restaurant called "El Gato y El Pinguino" near Old Mill, San Quintin.

The Cat and the Penguin are two friends or brothers, one fishes and the other cooks in their restaurant. The program just followed them going out to catch the fish and then them cooking it. Admittedly the programme wasn't mega interesting but it was great seeing Baja, and watching guys drinking Pacificos (ah, the memories!). It did seem rather cold though, everybody was wrapped up, must have been filmed in the winter.

So if anyone knows the Cat or the Penguin, you can tell them they made it onto English TV!
