**Beer-Battered Spotted Bass Taco with Avocado Mousse, Cabbage Slaw, Chipotle Remoulade and Fresh Corn Tortilla**
Jonathan called serving a taco on Top Chef a ballsy move and committed to executing the simple form perfectly. He pressed fresh masa tortillas on a flat top, fried the bass in a light beer batter (using 500 g beer to 400 g cake flour for a delicate crust), and built each taco with avocado mousse, a cabbage slaw and a chipotle remoulade.
{Jonathan}: "When you make something simple, it's got to be the best version of it. I'm going to focus on a beer-battered bass fish taco - now that Brandon's not here, I feel like I'm in the limelight."
Named one of the top four dishes.
{Danielle}: "This was so good. I actually am not a big fan of corn tortillas, and I loved it."
{James}: "I think it's a great fish taco. The fish is really nice and juicy."
{Tom}: "It's a great fish taco. Yeah."
{Kristen}: "It takes some confidence to serve a fish taco plain and simple, knowing what everyone else before him made. It was golden and super moist inside, and all of the layers you put underneath smartly were in perfect harmony."
