Stroll along San Antonio’s famous River Walk and you’ll see colorful parasols, glowing lights and numerous winding pathways to explore. This charming area — one of the city's most popular attractions — is the brainchild of Robert H. H. Hugman, a young architect with a big vision. The same can be said for Canopy by Hilton San Antonio Riverwalk’s executive chef Jose Arturo Trevino.

Trevino, who dreamed of being an architect as a child, now puts his creative instincts to work at Domingo, where he constructs mouth-watering dishes that feature a unique mix of elevated Mexican fare and modern culinary flair. In an homage to the beauty of San Antonio’s River Walk and his Mexican heritage, chef Trevino uses each dish to tell a story that is equally beautiful to the eye as it is pleasing to the palate.

Take the ever-popular fish tacos – a great shareable appetizer or main dish. Each element is carefully choreographed, from the sustainably sourced micro greens to the perfectly warmed tortillas. After all, details are important to chef Trevino. From picking the right color of the plate for maximum visual impact to the meticulous arrangement of each component of the dish, he has eyes on it all. Constantly evolving, adapting and inventing, chef Trevino respects tradition and ignites innovation through his delectable creations.

The personal thrill that chef Trevino experiences when creating in the kitchen is perhaps only surpassed by the delight he feels while watching guests’ facial expressions as they take their first bite. This fish tacos recipe — bursting with simple, fresh ingredients, flavorful spices and undeniable heart and soul — is no exception and elicits joy and acclaim every time.
