High end mexican. $8 a taco because you put half a head of shredded cabbage on it, and two baby shrimp, F off with your mayo and sriracha drizzle.

This is why I don't eat tacos unless I can get authentic Mexican street food quality in places like SoCal or Texas, etc. I want simple, delicious meat on a fresh corn tortilla without all the fancy bull####. Sometimes more is not better and food doesn't necessarily have to be re-invented to be delicious.
One of the worst dishes I ever had was at a higher end restaurant and was supposed to be a Caesar salad. This is a classic dish that shouldn't be screwed with and if you want to go high end you can make the dressing table side. Instead of a classic salad it was kale and other micro greens with an anchovy vinaigrette. I was pretty upset that they would call this a Caesar salad.
