Best Fish Taco in Toronto (so far)!

As I left work today, after staying a little late to finish a project I was working on, I kept feeling guilty about wanting to take a break from everything and spend some me time.  It's been a rough and busy last few weeks, no wait, months... ok years!! And I could really use a few hours to myself.  My husband was happy to stay home with the kids so this was my opportunity to enjoy and savour the escape.  Accept, since I've had kids, I've had the 'guilty mom syndrome'.  Anytime I get a chance to take time to myself, I feel like I am cheating on my kids and my family.  I feel as though I am being selfish and that I am putting their needs aside.  They could be the happiest kids with my husband or the grandparents watching them, but it wouldn't matter.  I will still feel horrible about not being there with them.  Often, I  ask myself, perhaps I should be enjoying these free moments of mine with them instead.

Apparently this feeling never goes away for a mother.  Fantastic!  I kept contemplating on the way to my car, should I just go home?  I can go shopping next week.... Naaaa, I'll just stick to the plan!  Off I went to one of my favourite areas in the city - Yonge & Eglinton (North)!  Of course, I had to grab a bite to eat first, and that's when I discovered Fish Street Market & Open Kitchen!  This place has a 95% rating on urbanspoon and there is a good reason for that.  The lady who took my order was really sweet and helpful and describing the types of dishes on the menu.  The cook in the back is pretty entertaining and clearly enjoys his job, and the fish taco I had was AMAZING! DELICIOUS!  There were so many flavours sparking my tastebuds in this wonderfully wrapped light taco, filled with fresh, moist juicy fish!  The juice dripped through my fingers as I took a bite of this colourful contraption surrounded by soft pieces of fish in a wrap with just the right amount of fresh cilantro.  A+
I will definitely be coming back!
