Taco thread...poll..hard shell or soft shell..

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Hey All,

I was thinking about Tacos when reading the Dinner thread and I thought I would start a poll to see if AZers prefer hard or softshell tacos. If you have a short minute..please take part in this poll. Be sure to take time and think about your response as changes will not be permitted.

Check out this thread... http://forums.alpinezone.com/17759-dinner-thread-whats-cooking-69.html if you want to discuss dinner foods..other than Tacos. What is your favorite kind of Taco?


I like hard beef tacos..they're really good..Amigo Mios on the southside of Allentown has my favorite tacos. It's an authentic Mexican restaurant in the first floor of a row-home and the cooks are Mexican..not high school kids like at the chain Mexican establishments. They make their own salsa..and their margaritas are only $3.75.

authentic = 2 small corn tortillas

hard shell = gringo

Me, I like soft shell chicken tacos as my #1 choice. But it has to have some HOT sauce/salsa for my "culinary burn enjoyment"

Generally speaking I almost always prefer soft foods over hard foods. If for no other reason than than the number of times I hear in my line of work "I broke this tooth eating a crunchy X" which I hear a heck of alot more than "I broke this tooth eating a soft X" (although that happens too)

Soft, at least when I buy them I know they aren't all broken already.

What kind of fish do you guys use in fish tacos?? Mahi Mahi could be cool..

As much as I like Mahi Mahi, I like a much flakier fish for tacos. My very favorite is tile fish. Cod, much easier to find in the Northeast, works well too.

Mmmm, fish tacos, soft shell, home made salsa, avocado chunks. Yum!

Choco tacos are good along with tacos with chorizo..for some reason there might be as many different varieties of tacos as shrimp..

 

[Paul]

I prefer enchilladas.

+1


Anyway I like soft shell with good carne asada (marinated skirt steak over charcoal)

Fish taco (mild white fish) with shredded cabbage, guac, and pico de gallo kick ass too!

 

[hardline]

i like my tacos soft

 

[Phillycore]

I still think the best taco comes between two thighs and it should never a crunchy one

 

[Moe Ghoul]

I like soft shells, but we use hard shells for taco salad. Basically everything in a taco, salad style, with crushed shells tossed in.

 

[hardline]
