Fish tacos out of a food truck?
Shooooooooots! I go chance 'em!!!!
So the best thing you can do for yourself when visiting a place that you're not from is to ask a local on - "where da good kine grindz?"
Sure enough, one of my customer's at Bank of Hawaii gave me da scoops on where to go, to check out some ono kine grindages!
"Ono Fish and Shrimp" was the place of choice for my afternoon lunch, as you can find this little food truck in Kaunakakai town, just next door to the business - Molokai Fish & Dive.
Business hours here are limited, as they are only opened from Monday to Friday from 11: 00 AM to 02:30 PM. They are closed on Saturday & Sunday (see my pic).
The menu there is pretty simple, as they offered five different items, and they were -
1. Taco Plate ($12.00), or you can do Ala Carte ($10.00). They do fish or shrimp tacos.
2. Sirloin Steak Plate ($15.00)
3. Fish & Chips Plate ($11.00)
4. Butter Garlic Shrimp Plate ($12.00)
5. Steak & Shrimp Plate ($14.00)
I'm not sure if the menu changes from day to day, as my Molokai trip was just a day trip.
Upon looking over the menu, I decided on the Taco plate, as I wanted to sample the Fish Tacos with fresh mango salsa. Sound Yummy right?
So my Taco Plate consisted of (2) freshly made to order - Fish Tacos (the fish used was Ono, or for you mainland folks - Wahoo), a scoop of white rice, and a green salad. I also bought a bottled water to wash down my meal.
What can I say about the Fish Tacos???
Absolutely broke da moufth deeeeeeeeeeeeelicious!!!
The fish was cubed, marinated, and grilled perfectly! The fish & mango salsa was folded into a soft shell taco that was slightly grilled. The mango salsa was really mind blowing good!!! I only wished I had a 3rd tacos, but of course overeating will only make me more fatter that I am! Buwahahahahahaha!
Folks, although the food was sold out of a food truck, there was covered outside seating in the back area of the food truck.
Just a quick tip..........as soon as I opened my food container to get some pics for Yelp, the next thing ya know, I had to compete with the flies!!! Lol!
I also had to eat fast to beat down the flies from getting to my meal, so if you don't dig that kinda environment, may I suggest you take your meal back to your hotel, or maybe eat your meal in your rental car?
