The fish taco is San Diego's most famous contribution to the taco canon. You can get one at fast food joints, taco trucks, and more than a few high-end restaurants.

But the fish taco didn't begin in San Diego, as Adrian Florido reports in the Fronteras series on how tacos are transforming the American palate.
