I made this recipe in my culinary class, and it tasted just like the tacones we get at another place in Vancouver, BC called "Go Fish". Only thing we added to each of the tacones was a 1/4 sheet of Nori (Japanese Sushi seaweed) to wrap with the tortilla wrap. Then it was complete and tasted just like what we get at 'Go Fish'.

It's a big city now, with all the big city advantages and disadvantages. I miss the small town feel but love the restaurant choices and the people friendly improvements.
My writing is mainly non fiction on historical bits, and I have brief and so far unsuccessful forays into historical fiction. Someday.....
I don't think I'm a great cook but I'm the kind of cook who can walk into the kitchen and find good things in the fridge and pantry and make it into a meal that everyone thinks is pretty darn good. Sometimes I use a recipe and sometimes...not so much.
I have a great collection of cookbooks, and I love reading them and studying the pictures. Sometimes I even cook the recipes, LOL! And that is why I love Zaar, an unending source of recipes and pictures. It's heaven!
