Fish Tacos al Pastor

Lamb-based (thus the "shepherd-style" name)

Al pastor (from Spanishlit. shepherd style), also known as tacos al pastor, is a dish, developed in Central Mexico, based on shawarma spit-grilled meat brought by the Lebanese immigrants to MexicoBeing derived from shawarma, it is also similar to the Turkish döner kebab and the Greek gyros. Although shawarma and döner are usually lamb-based (thus the "shepherd-style" name), gyros and tacos al pastor in Mexico are pork based. 

Senior editor Rick Martinez looooves tacos al pastor, but on his last trip to Mexico City, he opted for fish tacos al pastor at Contramar. He did not think he could possibly like a fish taco more than a pork one until that moment, hence the origin…
