[!@#$%!]

Cool, with the exception of Suchfriends, this thread now has every poster here who might be able to help me with something: tacos.

1. Baja or Al Pastor?

baja CALIFORNIA (that's lower california not just "lower") is a fish taco, al pastor is usually pork but cooked like shawarma (like, hm, kosher pig. but tasty). used to be a middle eastern thing but got porkified by the mexicans. so depends where you are. i'd say go with whatever you fucking want.

2. Should the fish be grilled or fried or deep fried?

i haven't had a good fish taco in ages but i recall a light crispy batter so i'd go with quickly deep fried. however i've never been to baja california so i don't know how they make them there.

3. Are they really better south of the border?

south of your border you have france so i will say yes, anything is better there

4. How many should a reasonable-bordering on greedy person order in a single go?

14

5. Restaurant/cafe or street vendor?

whoever can better wash their hands after wiping their arsehole. im gonna go with restaurant, though it's no guarantee

6. Cheese or no cheese?

cheese on a taco is a tex-mex atrocity.

a fish taco ought to be fresh and light. a taco al pastor does NOT go with cheese. butterfat and pig fat is just too unholy.

Sorry for hijacking, but had to seize the opportunity.

thanks for getting this thread back from armpit city

i'd suggest pursuing more research on the tacos al pastor concept
