Perfectly Delish: on the hunt for the perfect fish taco in Los Angeles

I'm off to Camp Blogaway in the mountains east of Los Angeles to hang out with my fellow food bloggers and work on my food writing and photography. As my husband said, it’s my type of camping – heating cabins, eating s’mores, getting massages, and talking social media over a few glasses of Mad Housewife wine.

I won’t have time to do more in the area except go through a In-N-Out Burger drive thru with my carpool gals, Vanessa of ChefDruck Musings and Melissa of Stockpiling Moms. If there is one thing I miss about living in Southern California is the Mexican food. That’s why I’m excited to watch Bravo’s new web series, Perfectly Delish: the pursuit of the most scrumptious foodie treats in L.A., hosted by Top Chef’s Betty Fraser.

In the premier webisode below, Betty is on the hunt for the perfect fish taco. She stops at Mary Sue Milliken's and Susan Feniger's Border Grill in Santa Monica. (You may recognize Mary Sue and Susan from Food Network’s Too Hot Tamales show.)

I was really intrigued that they used a piece of grapefruit in their tacos along with a juice made from limes, oranges and grapefruits. I’m going to have to try that! They also use sustainable fish like mahi mahi, halibut or tilapia and grill, not deep fry it.

Healthy taco recipes

I hope the show inspires you to make your own healthy tacos at home. Here is some inspiration for you:

• Carne asada and fish tacos
• Staying slim on Cinco de Mayo (crab and shrimp tacos)
• Mother's Day dishes: Sautéed Tequila Lime Shrimp Tacos with Mango and Pineapple Salsa and Spicy Black Beans
