THIS is my favorite local lunch spot. Always was, always will be when a visit to the grandparents is in order.
No meal and no Reno visit is complete without a Tiger Shrimp Tamal: soft, sweet corn all around, topped tender shrimp covered in garlic cream crack.
The Kale and Beets Salad: the only time I don't hate kale. It's baby kale so it's only a little bit waxy, and the salad itself is full of good stuff besides. Sweet beets in vivid color, oranges for acid, cranberry and candied walnuts for texture, goat cheese to add a little extra, and a smooth vinaigrette to pull it all together.
Can't just eat a salad? Pick Pastor Pork Tacos. You get steaming-warm corn tortillas to wrap around these flavorful pieces of pork. Chopped on the smaller side for more sauce-clinging surface area and a marinade that soaks all the way through, the flavor cuts real deep. Dig deeper and you'll see the bits of pineapple too. They add the sweet n' juicy.
There is something special about Twisted Fork. They have a creativity, a quality, a polish and attention to detail that keeps you coming back. I love you, Twisted Fork, you are forever on my Reno radar!
