The experience: Im not the biggest sea food fan but I do enjoy some fish tacos every now and then. Especially the ones I learned how to make. Not only did I learn to make fresh fish tacos, I learned how to make delicious guacamole. We first made the white sauce made up of yogurt and mayo with a hint cumin and chile. Then we mashed up the avocados with a scoop of Taquera salsa for the guacamole. For a beverages, we made refreshing cuba libres.
