ST. LOUIS The Lenten is underway, and with it comes a St. Louis tradition: fish fry.
The metro area can’t get enough hand-breaded cod, butterfly shrimp, fries, spaghetti, coleslaw, hush puppies and all those tasty desserts. Our mouths are watering already!
But, who has the best fish fry in town?
A few years back, 5 On Your Side asked the masses on Facebook and Twitter to share their top picks and tell us what makes their favorite fish fry so good.

FLORISSANT North County Churches Uniting for Racial Harmony and Justice (NCCU), which consists of 27 churches of various denominations in cooperation with the Florissant Police Department, kicked off its sixth year of its Summons of Joy Program on Dec. 14.
Despite the pandemic crisis this year, NCCU still received enough funding from some of its churches and members of various churches to launch another program this year. Because of these donations it was able to buy 40 $100 gift cards and give them to the Florissant Police Department to pass out to those they stop for minor violations. Instead of giving them tickets, they give them warnings and gift cards during the Christmas season. During the last six years NCCU has donated $34,000 to the Florissant Police Department in an effort to improve its relations with the community, especially with African-Americans.
