Long John Silvers, Kendall

So what do you do when you crave Seafood and your near the Tamiami Airport in Kendall? You go to BoneFish Grill of course! But what happens when you're starving and Bonefish doesn't open until 4pm and it's 12:25pm right now? You goto the closest Seafood spot you can find, and that would be Long John Silvers which is in the same shopping center as Bonefish! We were not expecting seared Sushi grade tuna from there, but damn it was niz! (nasty)! They specialize in "Grease Fish"! Basically everything is fried! I had the "Grease Fish" platter, which came with hush puppies and cole slaw, Alex had the Monster Shrimp platter, which we coined "Greasy breaded shrimp with a monster amount of breading to hold a lot of grease"! Alex also ordered a side of biscuits in order to concoct an ultimately fiendish and rich "Shrimp Biscuit"! I ordered a side of mac & cheese. The fries were not hot and overcooked. Try to avoid the fries, too much fried food! I would have to recommend the fried fish with slaw and rice! You see, fried fish is fine...until you commingle it with fried potatoes and fried corn bread (hush puppies). By the way "Hush Puppies" got their name as left over fried scraps fed to the dogs under the table in order to "Hush" the "Puppies", brilliant concept, I love it! Strictly Dog Food! Moving on... just so you know, a "side of biscuits" equals one biscuit (KFC cohabitates at this location)! Also, be sure to check your hand after grasping your soda cup. You see, Alex had an unidentified substance on his hand immediately after taking his first sip of soda! My cup did not seem to be contaminated luckily! Well anyway, it was not as expensive as Bonefish would have been and we did get full, but Alex felt like robbing a bank after we ate! Well, I guess that "Do Not Enter" sign right in front of the restaurant was a fair warning! Check out this Visual Tour!
