How it All Began

Hi, my name is Shawnee. Up until 2012 the only fish I had ever consumed was either caught by someone I knew or pressed into a patty and fried. Ah, the perils of being a non-catholic and growing up on a lake. Okay, so it was a flipping HUGE lake, but still, there is only so much Northern and Walleye a girl can take.

My husband, on the other hand, was brought up Catholic. Lenten fish fries were the norm for him.

One day, we were chatting and I mentioned that I had never been to a Friday Night Fish Fry. Growing up in the great north, every night was fish night somewhere. The whole Friday night thing during Lent was foreign to me.

Us being the quirky, somewhat spontaneous people we are, decided to check out a fish fry that Friday, and we decided to start at our local Catholic church.

So, that is how this whole thing began.

Since it is currently not the season of Lent, heck, we are closer to Advent than Lent, I am going to attempt to recap our fish fry experiences, along with a rating, strengths, weaknesses, overall experience, and of course, tartar sauce quality. I am assuming that eventually I will run out of places to go and will get to go back to some of our favorites, but just in case, check out some of these places during Lent! It is a lot of fun to see what churches, organizations, and restaurants have to offer!
