I’ve been away for a bit, so please give me a bit of latitude with a few more pics about my recent vacation to the pacific coast of Canada.
My last post was all about my favorite food group- seafood! But I’ll have you know I ate regular food as well and here are the pics.
Nah, just kidding. Here’s the seafood. I love it too much.
Steamed mussels and halibut from a cafe in the small village of Tofino.
Thats a fruit salsa on top of a fillet of grilled halibut, aspargus, and red onions. The sweetness matched well with the spiciness of the fish.
Speaking of Halibut- How bout some (halibut) fish and chips from Port Alberni? Right off the dock.
Or the Cod fish and chips from a diner in the Harbor city of Nanaimo?
Or find a hippie taco stand in the botanical gardens adjacent to the Pacific Rim National Park–
They’re famous for their fish tacos seen below. Thats another fruit salsa over a very spicy grilled salmon in a crunchy blue corn tortilla shell. I’m not a huge fan of Fish Taco’s, but I gotta say these were pretty darn good. Spicy and sweet, the fresh salmon really worked well with the other ingredients.
Thats all folks. I promise to resume my Arkansas themed posting next. Thanks for indulging me and please tell us of your culinary exploits next time you take a trip!
