Comment: More Friday night hockey practices mean more Friday Night Fish Frys at Remington's. You won’t hear me complaining…

Remington’s is becoming our go-to when we’re in a hurry and need a can’t-miss Fish Fry. Both their walleye and cod are consistently excellent and it’s close enough the rink and our house that we can get there without it getting too late. This Friday I went for the cod with a side of cheesy hash browns since I’ve had the walleye a bunch recently and wanted to change it up a little.

Remington’s was humming and the fish showed up no more than six or seven minutes after we ordered. It was piping hot and needed a minute to cool so I dove into the funeral potatoes first. The scoop is more than meets the eye and the greets your tastebuds with creamy goodness - this is comfort food at its finest. The cod also adds up to more than the sum of its parts with its fantastically flaky meat pairing with a superbly-seasoned breading. Yum.

The house tartar is a unique blend, and while not an ultra-rich supper club style sauce, it enhances the delicate cod in appreciable ways that a thicker sauce wouldn’t. It’s a well thought out combo and one that keeps us coming back for more. The slaw is also unique, but a little subtle for my tastes. Rounding things out is a crusty and inviting dinner roll that’s quite a bit better than the tear-off variety.

Remington’s has really dialed in their recipe over the years and is putting out one of the best, and most consistent, Fish Frys in the far west side/Middleton area. Overall, we highly recommend this Fish Fry and will undoubtedly be back again soon…wait, when’s practice again???
