Searching for the BEST Fish Tacos around SLO

This
last weekend
was
aka
at
Cal Poly.

SLO
had
like 10,000
extra people
roaming around
in town!
(that's quite a few)


You
could not
have
asked
for better weather
for
Polywood
...
maybe
80 degrees
soft breezes...
perfect!
The
bright blue skys
and
warm
sunshine
gave me a craving
for the beach
a beer
and some fish tacos


off to Avila

We
are still
doing
that
no sugar
no flour
no preservative thing
so
FISH TACOS
are
becoming
a staple
in our diets


We were
(and still are)
on a hunt for the best fish taco in SLO County


we
scooted
to
the
end
of
IMG_0730

to
Pete's Pierside Cafe

Pete's has been around forever

I used
to
know
the
REAL
Pete!
Great guy,
jovial
happy -
loved Mexico,
the Caribbean
and
all of
Latin America, really
and the food!!
OH, Yes!

Pete was a foodie!
(I wonder what happened to Pete.....)


Salmon tacos,
yes, please!
and crab cocktail
(as crab is in season right now)

and
a couple
Red Tail Ales

We grabbed this little table
in the
warm sun
with a view of
San Luis Harbor

Wild Salmon Tacos
and
the Red Tail
scale of 1 - 10 maybe a 5
fish was GOOD
not enough cabbage
and only one tort

Onlookers

No

with
our feathered friends

Next stop
for
fish tacos?
Maybe Splash Cafe,
or
The kilt
or Schooner's
...we will let you know


That Phinn...




ok -
way too much information
I know
but I had to
giggle
as Phinn proudly found himself the bottle of
Fanny Wrapper's
(the best lingerie shop in SLO)
brand of KY Jelly
and decided
to chew it up
Why is this funny? I know you are asking....


I guess it is because one of my favorite blogs is about

LIFE

written by

a gal with

three young kids

Her youngest is Fin.

He found the KY Jelly
decided to
spike his hair
with it
and ultimately won the best
crazy hair
at Awanas....
I guess the Fin and Phinn thing got me....
OK!
not so funny



The next few blogs will be about
our hunt for the
best fish tacos
in SLO county
