Friday Night Fish Fry

As the holiday season grows closer there are more and more community food events. Some of these events are free for those in need. Others are low cost as a way of attracting support from the community to raise funds to help those in need. Looking through the upcoming local community food events there are a few food events. As the holiday season proceeds more of these events will be scheduled. We try to support as many of these events as possible.

Friday Night Fish Fry

Last night we enjoyed an all you can eat perch and pickerel fish fry. Seriously you can't go wrong with this kind of event! The perch was lightly coated then either pan or deep fried. Sides included a creamy coleslaw, French fries, a vegetable tray with dip, a cheese tray and pickles. Yes those are baby carrots :( not the best choice (see my last FK101 article) but I figured 2 would be ok. There wasn't a lot of fresh vegetable choices. The entire meal was quite lovely. We enjoyed a lot of fish! It was well prepared and well cooked, nice and moist. We had the opportunity to socialize while supporting a worthwhile cause.

I will make more entries on community food events as we attend them over the next month. In the meantime if you have the opportunity to attend one, you will not be disappointed. The volunteers are very, very friends and the food is quite good. They may have door prizes or sell tickets for draws on prizes. It will give you a chance to connect with community in a very enjoyable way.
