Midtown Lunching During Lent
It’s the second Friday of Lent, so I’m sure a lot of you will be looking for some seafood options a little better than the fish filet from McDonalds… although at 2 for $3, it’s almost worth it. (Through April 12th according to Page 13 of today’s AMNY). Most of the recommendations from 2 years ago are still around, but there are a few new ones to be strongly considered… most notably, the new catfish sandwich from Certe (on 55th btw. 5+6th), and the fried catfish sandwich from out of bounds Baoguette (Lexington btw. 25+26th). Anybody else have any Lent recommendations? Put them in the comments…

Ok I don’t know about you guys, but that Wendy’s commercial for the new fish sandwich that’s panko breaded…? Looks pretty good. Anyone try it yet? (But yea, 2/$3 can’t really be beat…)

It’s all a vegan plot… they’re in league with the vatican & the illumnati
Can’t you just bribe a saint or something and skip it?

Just nabbed 2 for $3, I forgot how wickedly good those things were, death on a bun but they sure are tasty.
any of the sandwich options at oyster bar take out window at grand central are pretty solid…
