Episode Details

Friday Fish Fries in Madison are their own kinda of religion. When we went in search of the best fish in town, we had to talk to Linda Falkenstein, Associate Editor of Isthmus newspaper. She’s been going to fish fries in Madison her entire life… and now makes a living writing about them, among other things. It might surprise you that a few of her picks aren’t in Madison at all, but right next door in Westport and Fitchburg. But perhaps the most surprising pick of all? Well, we’ll leave that for you to discover. 

Linda’s picks: Quivey’s Grove, Athens Grill and The Old Fashioned. 

Read Linda’s Isthmus reviews, including this roundup of Wednesday Fish Fries (gasp!)

🐟 Join us every Thursday as we explore Madison's food culture, from the brewers and bakers to the chefs and cheesemakers.
