| A good meal ought to begin with hunger. Medusa's Sunshine Taqueria
With their not-too-hot, flavorful salsa, it is easy to continue chip-dipping, but we suggest that you save room for other menu items. If you want an alternative starter, get the albondigas. Brothy, and of course, with meatballs, it kick starts the appetite. There is a wide selection of beers, but Fausto raves about their horchata. If you haven’t tried this sweetened, cinnamon-spiced rice milk drink, we recommend it, and they make their own. Medusa’s has a wide variety of classic Mexican dishes with a few interesting variations. Julia’s favorite menu entrée is the butternut squash enchiladas, although years ago we remember it only as an occasional special. Corn tortillas conceal the squash and potatoes, but don’t expect Julia to offer you a taste once she has started digging in. This taqueria can boast that they use fresh ingredients. Pintos, black beans, or refritos (your choice) are a welcome addition to their excellent fish or shrimp tacos - Fausto’s top pick. He loves that stack of seafood, with shredded cabbage and two tortillas underneath, so you can actually pick it up. Request mild or hot salsa, both made by Medusa’s. It’s an excellent place to stop for a quick, delicious meal if you’re heading north along the coast or spending some time exploring Hearst-San Simeon State Park. We are planning a trip that includes breakfast next time, at Medusa’s. |
