fried flounder

I think I'm the only person in the world who likes Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives.  He finds some of the best from-scratch diner food ever.  Columbus has some supreme eats, but there are still too many bars serving expensive shit bar food, more locals should watch this show.

The only problem is the preps fly by too fast to take notes, but the other night I snagged a simple one: beer batter.  1 x 12 oz beer (I used Bud), 1C of flour and 2T salt and mix.  Coat the fish with a dusting of flour, dip in the batter,  let excess drain and pop it in the fryer.  I used peanut oil at about 375.  Really crisp and the coating was not too thick, a really nice save for some mediocre frozen fish.

And for some good local fried fish, catch @jarsloth's review today on Marino's in Grandview!
