Back to Patricio's on a Friday during Lent.  This means no meat for me and the Wife so we ordered Fish Tacos and Shrimp Tacos at Patricio's.  Probably would not order any of these again as the Fish Tacos were mostly breading and very little fish.  Shrimp Tacos very bland.  Stick to the meats here.  I love the Carne Asada and will be back for that.

Opening a new warehouse in Kona so I have been going there quite often.  Last week I ate at Patricio's and loved the Carne Asada Burrito.  On this visit we were not eating meat so I went for the Fish Tacos and my Wife went for Shrimp Tacos with Beans and Rice.  Of course we started with the delicious Tortilla Chips and Salsa which you need to pay for but it is worth it.  The Fish Tacos were just ok.  There was not much fish but the Pico de Gallo, Sauce and Hot Sauce were good.  Wife did not say much about the Shrimp Tacos but she finished them both.
I want to go back when we can eat meat and try the Taquitos, Enchiladas and more Tacos.

This Ribeye was incredible.  My Wife seasoned and cooked it perfectly.  Served with Pesto Cauliflower and Asparagus.  Our take on eating low carb!

SASHIMI AND AVOCADO

APPETIZER AT HOME

Pretty much one of our all-time favorite appetizers and something we are blessed to enjoy often living in Hawaii.  This Ahi block was pure heaven.  Bright red, glossy and so delicious.  Only problem is fresh Ahi is around $40 a pound right now.
