I ate this one during a recent Exotic Taco Wednesdays. It's python from a farm in Vietnam. Chef Maria Mazon chopped it up, and then simmered it in a stew of sweet chipotle tamarind sauce that tasted like Asian marinade.
This is no biggie for her campus-area restaurant Boca Tacos y Tequila. She is continuously pushing the envelope and staying a leg ahead of everyone else in town (two metaphors in one sentence!). And all, at casual prices.
To be honest, Boca would probably have been a lot higher on this list. But as it turns out, python tastes kinda weird!
THOU SHALT: Go crazy with your salsas. On this particular visit she was offering roasted bell pepper salsa, basil salsa, hoisin chipotle salsa, chile morita cilantro oil and honey wasabi!
