Fish Tacos.... Really?!
I'm from the south... the deep south. I adore seafood of all sorts... especially fish. But in a taco!? It doesn't even sound appetizing. This is why I have made faces galore when friends order this dish out at restaurants and I refuse to taste it. Tacos are supposed to be beef or chicken (unless I'm making them at home and then they are ground turkey or tofu crumbles - but I digress). Period. Well... in the spirit of trying new things, I sucked it up and decided to order fish tacos when out with a friend in Orlando recently. Deep breaths and a shot of tequilla (plus a margarita)... and I ate it. Hmmm... not nearly as odd tasting as I anticipated. Not something I'd voluntarily order just because I was in the mood for it, but not bad. My friend tasted my order and said he'd had better and begged me not to give up yet on them. Well... I was proud of myself. For at least a decade now I have purposely NOT tried this dish... now I had. Not bad. Now I'll have to find something new to make faces about.
