Cebollajo by Casa del Tío

More Than Dinner

Cebollajo is a four-course tasting menu cooked by Chef Raymond and his team — rooted in Oaxacan flavors and techniques, built on what Baja California Sur gives each day: fish from the Sea of Cortez, vegetables from local growers, tortillas off a wood-fired comal. It isn’t à la carte. You sit down, and the kitchen takes care of the rest.

The name

Onion, Garlic and the Beginning of Every Recipe

Cebolla and ajo — onion and garlic. It’s how Raymond starts so many of his dishes, and it became the name of the kitchen that grew out of cooking for friends and guests at Casa del Tío.
