Best Tuna Tacos Ever!
I think one of my favorite food experiences during my trip to Napa was at a little roadside food stand with outdoor tables called Gott’s Roadside. Before going to Napa, my mom told me that we had to try the fish tacos from Gott’s. I’ve never been a fan of fish tacos. To be honest, the idea kind of grosses me out. But my mom swore up and down that these were the best tacos she has ever had and, possibly, the best meal she had in Napa. So, on our way from Calistoga to Napa, we stopped on the side of the road in St. Helena, CA at 11 a.m. and tried the fish tacos. And they were, without a doubt, some of the best tacos I have ever had. Mouthwateringly delicious.
A few months later, I was still thinking about those tacos. I could still taste the delectable combination of fresh avocado, rare ahi tuna, and spicy sauce. I searched everywhere online for a copycat recipe, but none was to be found. Fortunately, the menu specifies the ingredients used in the tacos: ahi poke, avocado, green cabbage, cilantro, toasted sesame seeds and spicy mayo in crispy taco shells. Unfortunately, exactly what is used to marinate the tuna is not listed. Neither are the ingredients that make up the spicy mayo sauce. So, there I had to improvise. The results of my improvisation? RIDICULOUSLY TASTY. If you can’t make it out to Napa for the original, these are just as good. Here’s what you need…
