Fish Don't Fry In The Kitchen

Beans don't burn on the grill.




Okay okay.

It's fish dinner season here in the Newk.

And we wanted to tell you about a couple of the places
where you can get your fish fix.

But first, we should be honest with you.

We aren't the most religious of people here at thenewk.com.

But damn it, we love a good fish fry.

So every lent, we try to pack in as much deep-fried deliciousness
that we possibly can.

And the fact that we can wash it down with tartar sauce, and
hot sauce, and copious amounts of mac-n-cheese...

Makes us think there might actually be a god above.

Now look, we understand that religion is a hot button issue, not
only in this town, or this country, or this world.

And we fully expect a few of our spiritual readers to send some
blessed emails our way.

So we'll thank you all in advance for those.


Enough talkie talkie, lets get to the grub...
