Sunday Brunch and Belly Dancers!
For those of you who are going to be in the Rosarito area this weekend, Ruben's Baja Grill (across from Las Gaviotas on the free road, approximately
eight miles south of the Rosarito Beach Hotel), there will be an all-you-can-eat buffet with champagne/mimosas included and entertainment provided by
a local belly dancing club.
We attended last year and a very good time was had by all.
There was a waiting list for tables, especially on the patio where the performers were. Many children, toddlers to teens, spontaneously joined the
dancers, showing off their own moves.
See ya there!

We used to go nearly every Sunday but the consistency of the quality of cooking started to go really down hill the past few months, half cooked bacon,
burnt sausage links, cold food that should be warm, great mimosas and atmosphere though. I would love to see them get their act together again. Ruben
is such a doll.

Good Food Now
Ruben opened another location in downtown Rosarito last year and he had some ups and downs at his main location because he wasn't there to supervise
things.
He is back full time and the food has returned to the high quality level.
Last Sunday, he did a paella (shrimp, mussels, scallops, chicken, sausage) for the first time and asked every table of customers what they thought of
it.
He cares, he listens and he will take care of his customers. He has a passion to do things right.

Are the Belly Dancers on the menu?

You got my attention with the belly dancers--quite an art and worth seeing if done well. Unfortunately, Rosarito isn't on the travel schedule for
this weekend.

Dear Fishbuck
I think that you will need to ask for the secret menu, hee hee!

Like Demiteri, Ruben is a "Restaurateur" in the classic sense. He is very concerned about his customers, correcting any problems and improving the
food, the service and your experience at his restaurant.
Here he is last winter with is daughter.

Demiteri, I haven't heard that name in quite some time. He was absolutely the best!! I sure miss him at LaFonda. Itr's nice now but the old LaFonda
had character. I would even go solo. Loved it and felt very comfortable.
