Re: WOW!!!! This Challenge Has Been Met ....

Zee, if you're still in Ensenada, you really must go have a dinner at El Rey Sol in downtown, Adolfo López Mateos 1000. Ensenada Experience - El Rey Sol Restaurant

Really -- you won't regret it. One of the best meals I've ever had. When we were there last year for two weeks, we ate there 3 times. Loved it!
