We did continue this practice this year and enjoyed it immensely, and it appears that we are not the only ones since everyone that we attend is always packed. Here was the line-up this year.
Serbian Club, South Side. While not a Catholic Church, we attend this Fish Fry due to the fact that one of our neighbors help put this one together, and the proceeds do benefit both the Club and their Serbian Orthodox Church. It's a good one. Good fresh fish, shrimp dinners are also available, and Marilyn says this club has the best cole slaw anywhere. There is also a bar in the Club, so you can get a beer to go with your sammitch if you are so inclined.
St. Alphonse's Church and School, Wexford. This was our third year in a row for this one for, among other reasons, it supports the school where nephew and niece Brian and Samantha attend. One bonus feature at St. Al's is the availability of clam chowder. The school kids help in the serving of the food and the busing of the tables.
St. Alexis Church and School, Wexford. Another repeat visit. We like this one because the food is first rate and you are waited upon by the kids from the Youth Group of the parish. Also, you can buy 50/50 raffle tickets at this one. Alas, this year we did not repeat the win in this one from 2010.
St. Sebastian Church and School, Ross. This was our first visit to this one. Very well organized. Very good food. The kids form the school bus your tables when you're finished.
It is interesting to see how each Church operates their Fish Fry. They are all well organized, and no two operate in exactly the same way, but each and every one of them works. Like clockwork.
Unfortunately, there were a couple of Fridays where other commitments kept us from visiting other churches this season. Well, as they say down at PNC Park, wait 'til next year.
