Brunch may be a Cabo San Lucas specialty—why get up before 11 when you’re on vacation?—but few local eateries excel at this traditional transitional meal like Pan di Bacco. The Neapolitan-themed bakery, café, and restaurant blends a host of hearty breakfast delicacies with the more sophisticated fare one would expect during a lengthy, Italian-style lunch…including a trio of daily wine pairing options as a multicourse meal upgrade. Begin your day in paradise with soup and freshly baked focaccia or ciabatta bread, sample starters like “Italian” fries with truffle oil or poached egg bruschetta, graze on heart-healthy fruit and vegetable salads, then settle in with European specialty dishes like leek and bacon quiche or a Spanish potato and onion tortilla frittata. The thin-crust, rectangular-shaped pizzas are also superb, particularly the Regina Margherita with classic Neapolitan tomato sauce, mozzarella and parmigiano grana padano, and the Vegetariana Dell’Orto with baby organic zucchini, peppers, onions, tomato sauce and mozzarella. As a midday meal capper, pair traditional Italian desserts like tiramisu with a double shot of Illy espresso, or one of the café’s many specialty coffee drinks.
