Sashimifest just kicked off in San Felipe, and it’s already looking like a new local favorite. Think of it like the Shrimp Festival, but this time it’s all about sashimi. The setup’s pretty much the same: everyone hanging out on the malecón, live music playing, the beach right there – just a solid day to enjoy good food and good company.
What really makes it fun is the sashimi itself. You’ve got local chefs showing up with their best stuff, each one putting their own twist on this simple, fresh dish. Some go for classic flavors, while others throw in a bit of spice or something unexpected. There’s also a friendly chef competition going on, so you know they’re all trying to bring their A-game. And the best part? You get to sample as much as you like – it’s basically a sashimi lover’s dream.
The live music gives it that extra kick, with the usual mix of local bands and maybe a surprise act or two. You’ve got people chilling by the water, wandering from booth to booth, and just soaking up the vibe. Sashimifest feels laid-back but lively, with the perfect mix of beachy San Felipe energy and fresh seafood galore.
