Eat this rum-battered fish sandwich at Yellowbelly in the Central West End

The rum-battered fish sandwich at Yellowbelly takes us away to dining seaside at a tropical resort. The mild-tasting cod is battered with a rum-based allspice dram; the rum’s alcohol brings levity to the crisp crust. The fish is outfitted with a garlic-cayenne tartar sauce, housemade pickles and a carrot-cabbage slaw dressed in a Japanese mayonnaise and a dash of apple cider vinegar. The final flourish comes with the squishy-sweet Hawaiian bun, crowned with togarashi and sesame seeds, which has pineapple and brown sugar baked in.
