Go Fish DC

Shrimp and Mahi Mahi tacos
 Shrimp and Mahi Mahi tacos
Earlier this week my mind was blown by an incredible lunch that came from a truck of all places.  Now Philadelphia is chalk full of food trucks, but the trend has yet to catch on quite as strong in DC so I was pleasantly surprised to stumble upon this local delight through Twitter.

The woman who runs Go Fish DC graduated from L'Academie de Cuisine and has put together quite the fare of lobster rolls, crab cakes, shrimp tacos, and daily soups.  The best part about her business is that it moves around the city and through the outlying suburbs of Montgomery County.

I highly recommend the Maryland Crab soup, and the Mahi Mahi tacos are great if you come very hungry.

Disclaimer

I had a very difficult time coming up with a name for this blog.  I want Urban Prep to be a reflection of who I am and the kinds of things that I like and would confidently recommend to others.  For that reason, I gravitated toward a name that identified with my style, hence the "prep."  That being said, this blog will not fill your reader with pink and green, monograms, lace, and Lilly.

Rather, this blog will be grounded in class and iconic prep styles, while challenging those very norms by creatively incorporating and evolving with modern design and fashion.  I thought "urban" paired with "prep" solidified those goals well.

Bear with me while I repeat much of what will be included on my {About Me} page at the top of my blog. I am a 19 year old college sophomore and DC native in the process of transferring from one university in Philadelphia to another back home in DC. I created Urban Prep as an outlet for sharing inspiring and creative fashion, design, art, photography, food, and travel. I hope that someday in the near future Urban Prep will become a hub for busy but creative and curious people who wish to stumble upon new ideas every day without pouring through dozens of blogs on their own time. Finally, I am always open to feedback and would love to hear from you. Thanks for reading.
