Cut the fish into thick cubes. In a deep bowl, mix the flour, a pinch of salt, and baking soda. Gradually add water and mix until a liquid batter forms. Heat vegetable oil in a pan over high heat for 5 minutes. Dip the fish in the batter and fry in the oil until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the fish from the oil and dry with paper towels to remove excess grease. In a deep bowl, make the special sauce by mixing mayonnaise, sour cream, Tabasco, lemon juice, minced garlic, and cilantro. Heat the tortillas on a griddle or in a microwave and assemble the tacos. For each taco, place a handful of shredded cabbage, 3-4 pieces of fish, and 2 tablespoons of the special sauce.
