You may think of croquettes as the tap dancing kickline that shows up every Christmas, but you don't have to go to Radio City Music Hall to enjoy these. These little delights are filled with fresh fish and yummy potatoes, then breaded and fried. Topping these beauts is a delectable, delightful caper aioli, bringing all the richness and saltiness you'd want. Santa Claus is months away from coming to town, but you can get your croquettes right now and right here.
