I like tacos too. Do you think there is such a thing as a five star taco restaurant, or is that an oxymoron? ;)DA Cairnshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14891944631357476250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6476099636163002549.post-65153485613793319442014-04-30T01:44:45.964-07:002014-04-30T01:44:45.964-07:00I lived in Honolulu for about 6 months, but I was ...I lived in Honolulu for about 6 months, but I was there with YWAM, and we definitely didn't do fancy on our budgets.

I cannot spend exorbiant amounts on food when grocery shopping, or when I am simply eating out. One of my favorite places to eat here in Southern California are the local taco stands, which make amazing homemade style burritos and enchiladas. That might not ring some people's bells, but I see a lot of customers coming and going, so I think people enjoy it. Plus you can sit outside with friends, and look up at the local mountains. It is great.

Some wonderfully fancy brunches on the beach were pretty wonderful and some beautiful sunset dinners overlooking the ocean with an escargot appetizer. Those were pretty memorable and the remembering is a treat in itself. Thanks for making me think about it.

And I wouldn't really call that a fancy place. (I live in California. We don't really dress up.)<br /><br />Liz A. from <a href="http://lawsofgravity.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Laws of Gravity</a>Liz A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16531953467834426316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6476099636163002549.post-79591616021951755242014-04-29T00:47:01.893-07:002014-04-29T00:47:01.893-07:00Hmm...both menus sound pretty exotic to me.

A local fisherman had just arrived home with a large catch of fresh jumbo shrimp. We stopped and asked if he was selling. He was. We bought a pound or so, stopped at the store for garlic, butter and rice, and went back to our condo. Stir fried the shrimp in butter and garlic and served all over rice. Best shrimp dinner I have ever had. I still salivate thinking about it. When you live inland like I do, you remember those seaside experiences!
