There, he gained new experiences and played with new gastronomic trends at various restaurants in the Baja Peninsula and Loreto Mexico resorts, including Villa Margarita, Pueblo Bonito Rose Hotel, Westin Los Cabos, Hotel Marquis Los Cabos, and Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach Hotel. His jobs ranged from garde manager to banquet chef.

Every meal at Danzante Restaurant is a feast prepared by Chef Gerardo. Guests are invited to indulge in Loreto Baja California delicacies, like mushroom-stuffed clams and Zarandeado style fish.
