This year, the Bailliage of Los Cabos joined the global celebration of World Chaîne Day with a spectacular lunch event at Don Sanchez in Los Cabos.

Located at the southern tip of Mexico’s Baja California Peninsula, Los Cabos is known for its stunning beaches, vibrant culture and dynamic culinary scene.

Under the leadership of Bailli Fabrizio Frías, the Bailliage developed a special concept for the 2025 World Chaîne Day “Tastes of the World” theme, bringing together the unique flavours of six talented chefs, each representing a different country.

The Chefs presented these extraordinary dishes with wine paired with wines selected by the Bailliage’s Vice-Echanson:

Volker Romeike (Germany)
With over 40 years of experience, Chef Romeike presented a lobster cocktail with citrus mayo, brandy, horseradish cream, mock caviar and quail eggs.

Emanuele Olivero (Italy)
A master of Italian tradition, Chef Olivero offered a braised artichoke stuffed with ossobuco and caramelized piquillo mayo.
