Fast Food Fish Friday – week 1 – Arby’s Cajun Fish

arbys_fish2808.jpg

I know you’re expecting a video but starting today until Good Friday, every Friday will be a review of fast food fish for those of us who have no choice. Well, I have a choice, I could eat pasta or soup but then I couldn’t bitch about having to eat fish and where’s the fun in that?

The cajun wasn’t overpowering and added a nice spice kick. The shredded lettuce was a nice touch but it couldn’t cover the fishy taste to me which I don’t care for. It did flake nicely and the crust wasn’t hard to bite through. A slice of cheese might have made up for the fishy taste or another head of lettuce. Did I mention the strong fishy taste? I know this is the first place that I’ve visited but I was impressed the fillet looked like a real piece of fish and not a processed square.

The Lenten special was 1 sammich, an order of my favorite curly fries and a medium drink. For around $5 that’s not too bad.

Grade: B+

      Good fish doesn’t taste like fish. Get yerself to Wholey’s and make something good…

      There should never be cheese on fish. That’s wrong.

      Uncle Crappy is right: Good fish doesn’t taste fishy.

      Come to think of it, I could go for a nice fresh rainbow trout right about now. Sauteed in butter, maybe with sauteed almonds on top. Mmm.

      The best fish sammich I ever had was at the now defunct Foundry Ale Works. oozing with tartar sauce, lettuce, tomato, shredded cheese and Red Hot.

      The way I see it, people always talk about the best places for food. About time someone sees what the fast food junkies serve.

      Thanks for the comments Cindy, Crappy and Sorg!

      aw, man… had to get all nostalgic on me and bring up the Foundry. I remember the fish sammich, with a pint of IPA from the hand cask. . Great fish and probably the best beer I’ve ever had.
