A great dessert Burrito
A flour tort with a couple squares of a hersery bar, fold it like a chimi and deep fry or pan fry very quickly then sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Yummy!!!!!!!!! Can also be placed on the grill like a quesadilla. k

Jesse,
Good luck to you! I recommended your restaurant to some family members who wanted a new place to try, they will be there next week. I make great
tacos with fresh shrimp, any sauce goes, garlic/butter, chipotle, crema fresca and some lettuce/cabbage for garnish, you can call them "Monica's
tacos"!!

To Bajalero's potato taco add raisins and schreded casrrots like my wife's aunt did with her tamales.
Comitans Hawaiian Taco add spam as they do to everything.
my wife's mother used to make flour tortillas with cottage cheese--they were to kill for. Never heard anyone else doing this.
Hook, now you got me thinking about food.

Jesse, if you really want to impress people, at least the dinner crowd, set up a small comal on a raised platform in the dining area. Hire a lady
wearing indigenous dress to sit there on a petate making tortillas by hand. There is nothing that can compare with a fresh, hot tortilla right off
the comal. Just for show, you could have her occassionally grind some corn on a metate. Of course your hoped for volume would require supplementing
the masa from the kitchen, but the visual and olfactory effect would be killer.
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

Take crab meat and combine it with cooked carrots, celery, onions and mango. mould it into small cakes and refrigerate. Take balls and roll in egg
yellow and then in coconut. Deep fry until golden brown. Place several in a tortilla with shredded lettece and drizzle a mustard, balsamic vinegar
sauce over it.
At a feast of egos, everyone leave\'s hungry...

Sounds like a great taco, but I think they should be dipped in the white of the egg to hold together and brown.

I re-invent the taco almost daily. The recipie starts out; ""open the refrigerator door, see what's inside and make a taco out of it."

It will work with just the yellow. However, your right about the white. I just like the way it browns up with the yellow. Hell just use the whole egg.

take a whole wheat tort and spread it with cream cheese and spread your favorite jam, roll it up and fry till golden brown sprinkle with powder
sugar. Yum! Vegi tacos, spicy fried zuc"s and black beans, cheese, tom let. onion, avacado's. Topped with carrot and cabbage salsa. Gotta go and get a
taco fix!
We all want a peaceful world, filled with love and laughter, but we fill ourselves with anger and hate trying to fiqure out how to achive it.

Jesse, I recommend Tacos Japon?s. This was the Okinawan effort to satisfy the Jarheads' craving for Mexican fare in the mid 1950's. The problem was
lack of corn, white or yellow. So they made their masa from rice. Quite tasteless, very crispy when fried, but that was all we had. For the
adventurous there was Tacos Unagi, (eel), Tacos Tako, (octopus, how extraordinarily appropiate) Tacos Kujira, (whale), Tacos Ebi, (shrimp), Tacos
Sakana, (fish), Tacos Gy?niku, (beef) and Tacos Sea Urchin. The one taco everyone was afraid to try was Tacos Fugu, (blowfish) This was a delicacy
that was fatal if the fugu was not properly prepared.
Your clientele will probably be limited to grizzled, old, retired Marines from the Naval Service Retirement Home and some Japanese tourists with
cameras dangling from their necks. Good luck with the new menus and rice tortillas. RRC

They do that in Old Town San Diego and the people wait in line on the sidewalk to buy tortilla's (flour) for 50cents a piece. They are very good but
the show and smell is what does the selling.
ElNido's in Rosarito does the same thing but they cook them on a tin sheet over a oak fire and when I go in for breakfast I may not really be hungry
but after watching the lady and smelling the aroma's I am starved when the Nopales and eggs finally get to the table.

Tortilla's 50cents a piece, that sounds very expensive?

You got it--but even my wife pays the price because of the show and the aroma. Six bucks a dozen and she will not share them with anyone. I guess they
are really good--they smell great--perhaps if she drops one I can tell you how they taste.
I guess I should tell you she only weighs 112 pounds.

WE had a lady in camp, Lois, who sipped Tequila for over 50 years and the doctors told her to quit when she was 86. I closed her eyes about 6
months later. What do they really know????
