Expat Success Story - Chocolate Cream Pies come to Downtown Rosarito, Baja Sur Mexico

Diego's Pies opened just a few months ago on the main street in Rosarito to make pies for the expats and the locals in this area. The owner's name is Dennis and he retired from being a plant manager but did not want to stop being active. So he learned from a pastry chef friend of his how to make pies. He found a great location on Blvd. Benito Juarez, bought his ovens and all the other items he would need to open his pie shop and had his grand opening. His pies are great and he has been making more pies every week since he opened.

On offer are delicious fruit pies and you can choose from Apple, Cherry, Boysenberry and Peach. Or you can opt for the creamy favorites, Banana, Chocolate or Coconut. Dennis also tempts you with the good old classics, Pumpkin, Pecan and Lemon Meringue, my favorite. He also has a lunch menu and offers different specials each week.

Diego's has been a gathering place for a Thursday lunch group that discusses American politics and world events. It is open to everyone and the participants may change from week to week and the topics are usually current events. It is attended by a very diverse group of Americans and Canadians with views that start from the extreme left and reach the extreme right and with everything in between. It is an intelligent group that has lively debates over lunch and pie. If you are in town on a Thursday at noon stop in and join the discussion.

August 1st Diego's had a party celebrating the sale of its 750th pie. The party was a huge success and everyone had a great time and enjoyed the special food that was cooked for the occasion. There was a raffle for cash and coupons and one lucky winner took home $150. Diego's has promised another party when the 1,000th pie is sold. At the rate they are going out the door it will be very soon.

The pleasant weather in Rosarito at this time of year has been bringing a lot of people from the desert areas of the United States and Mexico to enjoy the beach during the day and the local entertainment at night. It is great to see the town coming alive again and that all of our guests will be returning to their home towns and sharing with their friends and family the great time that they had in Rosarito.
