Signature Dish
The Lobster Tacos Are A Tasty Treat At Oli’s Fashion Cuisine In Wellington Story and Photos by Julie Unger
One of the most popular items at Oli’s Fashion Cuisine in Wellington is its signature dish, Lobster Tacos. Co-owner and Executive Chef Dustin Parfitt said that the dish is made with fresh Maine lobster, flown in live to the restaurant. When Florida lobster is in season, that is offered, as well. Large pieces of lobster meat are cooked to perfection and sit nestled within a set of tacos filled with citrus quinoa, avocado, cilantro lime slaw and aja aioli. “They’ve gone over really well,” Parfitt said. “On Tuesday nights, we have half-priced appetizers at Oli’s, so you can come try them for half the price.” The poached Maine lobster is complimented by its accompaniments. “We’ve always done mini tacos here,” Parfitt
said. “There are four renditions of them, and they all have a different sauce and different ingredients. They’re fun.” It’s a fun and special meal that pairs well with Oli’s other taco offerings — Tuna Tacos, Skirt Steak Tacos and Blackened Chicken Tacos — all of which are happy hour items. People come in and order them all, Parfitt said, mixing and matching to get a unique blend of flavors. Oli’s offers a fashionable, modern atmosphere with something for everyone. This month marks the sixth anniversary of the popular restaurant, named in honor of the community’s namesake, C. Oliver Wellington. wellington the magazine | november 2016
