Afíshonado Raised in Queens, the owners/chefs behind Afishonado, April and Leo, have been influenced by several ethnicities and cultures which can be seen in their interpretation of food. Both are trained chefs and lovers of food and flavors. Through their experiences working in restaurants and catering, and having been exposed to local ethnic food scenes, they collaborated to create Afíshonado, a concept created when a search for fish tacos was almost nil to none unless found in the Rockaways or at expensive Mexican-themed restaurants. The ideology is to offer an alternative to meat tacos by using seafood. Afíshonado offers a variety of seafood tacos, from beer-batter-fried and pan-seared cod and shrimp, clams, oysters and crab. They also offer a vegetarian option using tofu as an alternative. Each taco is paired with toppings such as fried onions, slaw and pico de gallo or corn and black bean salad. Sauces vary from mild tomatillo to spicy roasted tomato salsas or zesty creamy sauces using sour cream. Additionally, each taco comes with a side dish of fried plantain chips with a special garlic mojo sauce. AVM casa AVM casa is a local manufacturer of high-quality soy wax candles, beeswax lip balms and spa products. All products are handmade, hand-poured and hand-labeled in Bronxville, NY. Using only pure fragrance and essential oils and a quality 100 percent soy wax that melts smoothly, the candles will provide any space with romantic ambiance and pure scented heaven.
