Fantastic food on the go!
What do you do when your lunch plans are canceled and you didn’t bring a sack lunch because you thought you were going out? I go to No Fish! Go Fish! Truthfully, picking up food at the Fish is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are going stag or meeting a friend. Just be sure to have a back up plan if it starts raining. You don’t want to end up eating your food in the trough called the food court.
I remember No Fish! Go Fish! back when I first started working downtown eight years ago. After all these years the same guy is still serving up the fantastic fish and soup combo, which, due to inflation, is now $6. I can’t argue with that price though because you get two fish shaped crispy cornbread inspired pastries stuffed with a variety of fillings and a pint of the “Soup of the Gods.” Depending on the day you will have your choice of 3 flavors. I always pick the Dal but I’ve heard that all of them are great!
I’ve walked by this cart countless times, I’ll definitely try it next time!
Hey Bobbi! I know it is so unsuspecting! If you are really hungry make sure you get some extra fish! They are damn good!
It just sounds so funny for you to tell me to buy fish! I’ll go there this week and report back!
Fo’ Sure!
the curry fish are the best! one day I’ll make it to the cafe again and try the cinnamon apples fish….
Ahhh the cafe! I want to go there sooo bad!
Hey I went here last week for the first time! I preferred my curried veggie fish over the olive one, though they were both good. Split pea soup, mmm.
Yeah! I’m glad you liked it!
