Hand-breaded haddock or beer-battered fish, deep-fried and served with German potato salad, coleslaw, rye bread and tartar sauce. A Buffalo Catholic Lenten staple available year-round at most taverns, peak through Lent.
Western New York's heavy Catholic population (Polish, German, Irish, Italian immigrants) built the Friday fish fry tradition around Lenten meatless Fridays. The dish predates the wing by decades and remains the city's most-ordered Friday-night dinner from mid-February through Easter. Wiechec's, Romanello's and corner-tavern fish fries anchor the tradition.
