eating for entertainment



It's been such a humid, hot and muggy week...not the kind of days that you can enjoy being outside at all.    I guess we were getting a bit of cabin fever by the end of the week because we were both trying to think of somewhere to go.

There was a fair in a nearby county, but it didn't get started until evening, so no to that.
We looked up info on "My Old Kentucky Dinner Train".....whew!! Pricey!!
We considered taking a scenic drive to a burger place in Indianapolis, but got discouraged about that when we realized we would be heading home in Friday afternoon rush hour traffic.
We checked the shows at the movie theater  - nothing playing that we were interested in seeing.

Finally we settled for going to get a fish sandwich at Mike Linnigs.

They keep improving their outdoor seating area but, as you can see, no one wanted to sit out there.


We sat inside by the window - nice and bright.




This is the look on your face when you see the fish sandwich!  And that tower of onion rings! 


It's too much food really. We could have easily split one sandwich and onion rings and had plenty of food, but I was ordering the broiled fish this time.


Of course they'll give you a "to go" box for your leftovers...but reheated fish is not the greatest.

Wish they would give you a manageable amount of food for a decent price instead of serving an expensive overloaded dinner.

Everything was good, though.

  1. Mike Linnings sounds so good, we haven't been there in years. I completely forgot about it!

    1. Things have sure changed since we first started going there...but that's to be expected - that's been 30 years ago.
      We only go about once a year now, even though it's much easier to get to.
