ART WALK IN PUERTO LOS CABOS

We will take you to a beautiful yacht. Inside, a finely decorated table and glasses of Champagne awaits. The canapés arrive and a melody is heard in the background. No need to worry, the yacht will remain anchored all the time. Think of it as your floating luxury living room.
Outside is a promenade with an approximate length of 600 meters bordering the marina. On it you’ll find 15 bronze sculptures and 50 screens representing the life and work of surrealist painter Leonora Carrington.

ART TO TABLE BY LA REVOLUCIÓN
6:40 PM
You will cross the bridge back by car back to San José del Cabo until you make it to La Revolución restaurant. Its decoration and contemporary style will call your attention the second you enter. You will be greeted by the manager and directed to the back of the restaurant, to the Dalton Gin Bar.
A palette, acrylics and brushes have been placed on a small table. On the side a canvas, still unpainted, rests on an easel. The waiter offers you the “Mezcal Revolución” drink made from mezcal brought from states with the proper regional denominations such as Oaxaca.
In front of your chair you will find the tasting menu. Funny thing, it is practically blank. Suddenly Walton appears and welcomes you to the home of Art to Table. Briefly he will share his life, his passion for painting, how it is he came to San José and why he chose surrealism as his inspiration.
Minutes later enters Alex, the head chef at La Revolución. He greets everyone and also shares a little about his story, why he chose gastronomy as a profession, what inspires him when it comes to conceiving an author’s dish and some anecdotes of life in San José del Cabo.
What you will listen and witness next will entertain you but, above all, surprise you. Walton will take a brush, the palette and check the colors in each paint tube. Alex will not know the ingredients that have been placed inside the small containers resting on a palm basket. This will be an artistic duet: Walton will create a four-course tasting menu inspired by 10 strokes in five different tones.
After the tenth stroke, inspired by the sunset and the colors around him, Chef Alex will relay Walton and interpret the work with the ingredients inside the basket. Without hesitation, he will take control of the kitchen and begin the preparation of your meal. Each dish will be accompanied by the best Mexican wine from Valle de Guadalupe, a region north of the peninsula.
One by one the dishes will arrive at your table. The Chef will explain the reasons behind each dish guided by Walton’s strokes. For the next ninety minutes an amazing atmosphere, the Mexican warmth, the smile and the collaboration between Walton and Alex, plus a good glass of wine, will be the main ingredients to create this great moment.
THE WAY BACK
9:00 PM
It’s time to wrap up the evening. There are no goodbyes, rather a see you soon back again at the table of La Revolución. Outside your driver will be waiting to take you to the entrance of your hotel, so you can digest every moment where art was the protagonist of a unique experience in Cabo San Lucas. We are sure this one will remain forever imprinted on the canvas of your memory.
