I was told about a family style Basque restaurant on the way to Mexicali. I suppose it's on I-8. Anyone know of it.
Also, the trip is about the same distance going via Palm Springs and through San Diego. Any recommendation on which way to go? Roger

    Sorry, I haven't heard about it.
     
    Are you driving?  Are you going in a group?
     
    Have you read anything about Baja lately? Please read up on the latest news.

      Maybe someone else has info on the possible Basque restaurant, so I will limit my comment to the route choice.
      The traffic on the L A to Dago segment would be enough to turn me off totally. Use the 10 to Indio and then the old rt 99 down to the Border if you really intend to go. I seriously recommend avoiding ANY after dark driving anywhere near the 8 or in the Imperial Valley at night!!!  The Border area is no safer in SoCal than it is near Nogales or El Paso further East.

        They shoot Americans with regularity.
