How we started our Cafe,

Bonjour Madame

As the covid pandemic slowed down the farmers markets, it was time to settle down somewhere. We picked Todos Santos, for its smooth climate, the cosmopolitan community, and its situation halfway between La Paz and Los Cabos.

We first started into a food court in the historic part of the village but then we discovered that cute little place of Plaza Victoria in the booming area of Las Tunas. Just a bit off the road and close to the beach this cute hidden yard with its arcades seemed the perfect spot to start our new business.
