Cafelix

Cafelix
Located: Downtown of Todo Santos, Baja California Sur, Mexico...about a block from Hotel California!
You'll love if: You dig 80's music, art, comfy couches, and a good place to write.
I came here at least twice (I wanna say 3 times) while I stayed in Todo Santos for my turtle rescue for a week. We went back a couple days ago and knew I wanted to go back before leaving Mexico.
The first time I went I got chai each time, once a frapp then a hot chai latte...either vanilla or spiced. The Vanilla was very sweet, maybe too sweet for me, which is saying a lot. I really loved the spiced chai though, it was a very strong chai flavor. I think the hot chai was my favorite, but it was also nice to have while doing some journal writing. This time I decided to try something other then Chai, which can be hard for me sometimes. I chose the Mokka Blanco, which is a White Mocha, I think I still preferred the Chai.
The decor is colorful with the artwork hanging around. They also have free wifi, gotta love that. If you are ever out running around and just want a snack they have many granola bars and snacks that you can pick up. The goodies in the case also look delicious. My Mom also enjoyed the 80's music...
My only complaint about the food was that it was cold. The syrup that came with my waffles and french toast was the packaged kind which didn't help warm it up either. Maybe their lunches are better.

If you can give me tips on doing better cafe reviews....let me know! I'm getting into the gist of it still.

CinnaRolls

I love coffee. I am one of those coffee shop type of girls.
I might even meet my future husband in a coffee shop. Romantic right?
I would like to start blogging about different cafe's I hit here and there.

We recently went on a trip to La Paz here in the Baja. I had the brilliant idea to head to one before the drive home.
We chose a place called CinnaRolls Bakery&Coffee.
As I went to look at the menu I was thrilled to see they had Chai & not only did they have chai, they had a whole menu of different Chai's. I saw Chocolate Chai and I was sold. I never had chocolate Chai before, I thought it would be interesting.
I then chose to have a cinnamon roll, which had different flavors such as almond, chocolate, regular, and raisin. Again, the chocolate sold me.
I was ready for one sweet chocolate morning.
My Mom ordered the Mocha and a regular cinnamon roll, and Ed who is not into sweets in the mornings such as Mom and I, went with iced tea and a sandwich.
My Chocolate Chai was pretty okay, I was disappointed that it tasted like Hot Chocolate more then anything. You could not taste too much of the Chai spice. The cinnamon roll on the other hand was heaven, if you have some killer sweet teeth like I do then you would probably agree.

Mexican Fall Season.


Fall is my favorite season.
Sweaters & Scarves.
Everything Pumpkin.
Warm scents in the home.
Hot coffee and drinks.
Colorful leaves.
Warm colors.

This is the closest to fall I get here in Mexico.
Cloudy morning which was comfortable enough to wear a hoodie in the morning.
Enjoying an amazing mocha in a peacock mug.
Buying a mini pumpkin in 90 degree weather.
