Mariana And Benito’s guidebook
Food scene
Los Poblanos is a Lavender farm/Inn that has a delicious restaurant that is all local and handmade food. The property has a beautiful view of the mountain, an outdoor patio, a pond, a rose garden, and quails and alpaca that roam the property. My favorite way to visit Los Poblanos is to make reservations for just after sunset so I can arrive early, walk around a bit and enjoy a drink while watching the sun set on the mountains.
