Don’t settle for the expected. The Asian food movement has taken over the Western Hemisphere, but we’ve found some of the most creative interpretations right here in Cabo San Lucas—with Francisco Zuniga’s menu of Mexican, Asian, and fusion dishes at Los Barriles. The experienced restaurateur has successfully fused the flavors of Baja and Asian to create dishes that pop. We’re particularly fond of the flamed fare (ask your server for details), as well as the Thai seafood soup (a hot pot with shrimp, scallops, and calamari that is prepared in coconut milk and a ginger lemongrass broth). The Korean barbecue for two is an absolute feast: It features shrimp, scallops, filet mignon, lobster, and chicken and is served with an assortment of sauces, grilled veggies, and salads for only $46 U.S. Live music is performed Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 6:30 p.m. Miguel Hidalgo, Cabo San Lucas, (624) 143-1619. Daily 7 a.m.–11 p.m. All major credit cards and vouchers accepted. $–$$$ A.A.
