Tú sabes más que pescao frito. You’re so clever and street-smart that nothing gets past you.TLDR
You’re so clever and street-smart that nothing gets past you, and the phrase exaggerates this in a humorous way by comparing your “knowing” to the taste of fried fish, playing on how “saber” in Spanish can mean both “to know” and “to taste”.
It often carries a tone similar to “You’re sharp as a tack” or “You’re too smart for your own good,” said with affection and a bit of joking awe.
Context
This is a humorous Spanish saying used to describe someone who is extremely clever, astute, and street-smart. It implies the person is very quick-witted, difficult to fool, and adept at navigating complex situations.
Our culture appreciates that kind of street smarts, that practical intelligence, often with a good dose of humor and exaggeration.
