These were the juiciest fish tacos I’ve ever had! And the spicy mayo ~ well that just took it over the top! My family and I recently went to North Carolina to my brother-in-law’s wedding (congrats Sean & Simone)! While there, we ventured out and happen upon this restaurant called Bakersfield East Blvd. We had no idea what to expect because we just stumbled upon it. The staff there were super nice and quickly recommended the short rib tacos as the all time best! So we did and WHEW they were DELISH! And as always when I happen upon a really great anything to eat I day dream about, how to go home and recreate it with my own spin! I decided to go with fish tacos to make it healthier and broiled the fish instead of frying it! I went with the spicy mayo, well just because I love spicy mayo! Honey let me tell you, these were some of the best darn tacos I’d eaten EVER! And YES I am patting my own back, you will too, if you try this recipe!
It all begins with a little cabbage and bell peppers
What a perfect flavor marriage
There is nothing like well seasoned anything to eat
