Hanna's Best Deli & Bakery - Janesville, Wisconsin - Friday Night Fish Fry
This entry was posted on 8/6/2010 1:57 AM and is filed under Ethnic Restaurants, Cafes Delis Drive ins, Friday Night Fish Fry.
I had been seeing a blurb here and there for Hanna's Best Deli & Bakery in Janesville. What caught my eye was a small ad touting their fish fry not long ago. So, when confronted with a rough weekend where I could not get out of town, Hanna's got the fish fry nod.
As it turns out, it was a good as well as interesting choice. Hanna's will find itself in several Cool Dadio food Categories. They offer a pretty standard three-piece Friday fish fry with one basic format. You will get three pieces of tasty lightly breaded fried Cod. The French fries are thoughtfully cooked as fries go. The cole slaw definitely has a homemade timbre, as well does the tarter sauce. The whole presentation will come in a basket with a lemon slice tucked on the side.
I have it on good source that every thing in Hanna's is homemade. I think I can best describe Hanna's theme as Mediterranean with several of that area's dishes offered. What caught my eye was the Baklava. It is a pastry for those of you that do not know. The last time I had that Mediterranean/Middle Eastern pastry was in Iraq. Many countries in the region feature Baklava. We got three types to go. We chose the walnut, the cashew, and the pistachio Baklava offerings. I pretty much demolished them all once we got home.
Once before you die, you should try authentic Baklava. Until I am corrected, it appears that Hanna's is the only place in Janesville to offer it.
Hanna's Best Deli & Bakery is cool with Cool Dadio. With fish baskets, Baklava, and sodas, three of us got out of there for under 25 Bucks total. Find them at 2602 East Milwaukee Street on the near east side of Janesville, Wisconsin. Call (608) 754 - 4181 for more information.
