>Taco Adobe — mmmm mmmm mojo! — CLOSED

The mojo here is a garlic sauce called mojo de ajo, commonly found in Mexican cuisine. I love camarones mojo de ajo, which are shrimps seared or grilled in a fabulous garlic sauce. I’m kinda addicted to this dish, but only when done well. Some places just can’t get the sear right. At Taco Adobe, they get this dish more than right. It’s absolutely intoxicating, to the point that you wish they had thrown on another 8 shrimps for you to savor. The garlic makes this dish so aromatic and flavorful you’ll want to lick the plate when you’re done. Well, I did the next best thing, I wiped my plate clean with the corn tortillas that came along with it.

About Me

This blog is a journal of mostly my eating adventures, but also, other things I'm passionate about, including travel, the arts, and also, necessities to complete my life. Centered predominantly in and around Orange County, CA, some will extend to Los Angeles, San Diego and beyond. I am constantly searching for delicious food to eat and fun things to do, nothing is out of bounds. Sometimes it doesn't end well, but I can definitely say, it will always be an interesting journey.
