🐟 It's the first Friday of May, Wisconsin — and I have a question that's going to start a fight in the comments.
The patios are opening. The farmers markets are firing back up. Sandals are out, the grill cover is off, and somewhere in this state, someone is already arguing about whether perch or walleye is the superior fish fry.
So let's settle it. (Or, more likely, not settle it at all.)
Drop your hometown's BEST Friday fish fry in the comments — the one you'd drive across the state for. 👇
Bonus points if:
🍺 They serve it with a Brandy Old Fashioned that actually has a brandied cherry
🥔 The potato pancakes come with applesauce AND sour cream (don't make me choose)
🐟 It's somewhere a tourist would never find on Google
Whether you're loyal to a Fox Valley supper club, a Door County tavern, a Green Bay church basement, or a hole-in-the-wall in your own backyard — I want to know.
I'll be reading every single one. Then I'll be very, very hungry.
(Tag a friend who owes you a fish fry date. It's spring. The excuses are over.) 🌷
