In 1988, world-famous Chef Alfredo Bellinghieri creator of the original Fettucine Alfredo acquired a small hotel in a sleepy fishing village on the northeastern coast of Baja California on what at the time appeared to be a whim.

Alfredo had a vision.

When he saw the Sea of Cortez on the east, encircled by the Sierra Madre mountains to the west, nature at its best uncontaminated by urban sprawl, abundant sea life, warm ocean waters, hot springs flowing from the ground, he knew that he had stumbled upon was no less than a piece of paradise. Today, his daughter Palma took it upon herself to finally make Alfredo’s dream come true. To make his vision a reality.

Palma Bellinghieri is a second-generation culinary artist and chef. She was born and raised in Mexico City and is a graduate of the prestigious Villa Pierrefeux Institute and Centre International de Glion, Hotel Management School in Montreaux, Switzerland.

Daughter of world-renowned Sicilian born chef and Mexico City restaurateur Alfredo Bellinghieri creator of the Original Fettucine Alfredo (at “Alfredos” in the Zona Rosa), Palma integrates generations of family, international upbringing and restaurant recipes, into nutritious eating and healthy lifestyles.
