Punta Chivato Dinner


Hi, i am testing the waters as far as doing a 6 course dinner with wines in Punta Chivato in March. Theres a large group that would fly in from La Paz and Cabo, and i already have a small group of Mexicans from Mulege and Sta Rosalia who would join. My question is how many people in the area would be interested in joining us for a nice evening of food, wine, and dance.

The dinner would be held at the Lujans hacienda, and i think theres a new hotel that would be open by then since Posada Las Flores is too expensive and not very good. My idea is to charge around 500 pesos per person, and perhaps use most of the profits for a local charity. I am still working on the details, so nothing is written on stone yet.

A charity dinner cooked by Jesse and you are haggling over $10?

Sheesh. Fishbuck won't be anywhere near there. And, if Jesse is looking to donate a substantial portion of the proceeds to charity, why in the world would anyone want to haggle over ten bucks??? Seriously.

What are you stupid? 500 pesos is 40 dollars at the current exchange rate.
And no one is haggling.
And how the hell do you know if I be there?
Shut up!
