Worst Fish and Chips Ever

So, last Friday some friends wanted to meet up for drinks at this Irish bar down the street, J. Patrick's. We had been there before, but only for beers. First thing, while they do have a good beer selection, they are kinda pricey, and like all good bars in baltimore, they only take cash.

So BF and I decided to go early and get food before our friends showed up. I got the "fish and chips" with cole slaw and BF got the Shepard's Pie. Our fist thought of "there's no way they can mess these dishes up" was immediately disproven when our food came out.

My "fish" was literally a flat fish-stick. fish-stick. - And the fries tasted like they had been in the frier all day long. Both tasted nasty - i could only have a few bites.

So i was looking forward to my cole slaw when the woman in the kitchen comes out and tells me they are out. Crap! So i got the "green" salad.

What this woman brought out to me had nothing green in it what-so-ever. It was the core of a head of iceberg with some diced tomatoes.

Shepard's Pie was no better really. BF sort of suffered through it.

So... moral of the story: only eat fish and chips at Maggie Moores across the street from the Hippodrome. No more food at J. Patricks.

PS: the funniest part about this whole thing was that while we were being grossed out by our food this guy next to us (a frat-boy federal hill type) called his buddy to come to the bar and meet up with him b/c the "food was sooo good." Dude was eating mussels and mozzarella sticks...
