"Los Angeles’s best pescado zarandeado vendor relocated to Bloomington with a tricked out food trailer for grilling whole fish over mesquite, Playa Los Corchos style. Chef Anthony Placencia, working alongside his Nayarit-born mother, Maria Carrillo, and other family members, has created a one-of-a-kind tacos de pescado zarandeado recipe — served in a car dealership parking lot. Plascencia’s signature dish gets marinated in a homemade adobo that has a base of salsa huichol to bring out the natural flavors of mesquite-grilled sea bream, snook, or Barramundi, among others. The full package includes tacos de frijól, an assortment of salsas, handmade corn tortillas, plus sliced red onion, cucumber, and limes to garnish the tacos. Order pescado zarandeado “estilo Los Corchos” for an add-on of octopus and shrimp zarandeado that offers a true taste of the beach in Bloomington. Find the stand Thursday through Sunday from 10 a.m. to 7:30 p.m." - Bill Esparza
