St. Louis Fish Fry: Is Your Church Hosting One This Lent?

If your Catholic church or other group is operating one this year, here's how you can let us know.

We're eager to get the word out to our readers about where they can find fish frys this Lenten season. If your Catholic church or other group is operating one this year, please fill out this form with the details. We'll compile the list of frys that we get and make sure that information is available to our readers throughout the season. An Associated Press article published in USA Today called fish frys "a timeworn Catholic tradition that provides a safe haven from divides that have long roiled the U.S. church, a place where traditionalist Catholics, progressive Catholics and everyone in between can sit peacefully at the same plastic tablecloth." If you're looking at this on a mobile device, please come back and visit when you're at a …

What Are You Giving Up for Lent?

Chocolate? Facebook? What are you giving up for this religious time?

If you've logged on to Patch lately, you might have noticed our interactive map of fish frys. It's our way to help anyone giving up meat for Lent find a place for a tasty meal and to support communities. But it got us thinking: What besides meat are you giving up for Lent? And how is it going? It's tough going without something you are used to. If you are sacrificing a favorite food or activity for this period of religious observance, tell us about it. We'd love to know. Submit your responses in the comments below, or email your local Patch editor.

Try Llywelyn's for a Classic Lenten Fish Fry

In honor of Lent, we sought out a fish fry for this week's review. Short of sneaking into a church on Friday night, where better to look than an Irish pub?

First, I tried stopping by Timothy’s Irish Pub. At noon, there were only two cars in the parking lot. One was occupied by a chain-smoker sitting alone in his car with the windows up. The other had a man with a lap full of paperwork who kept opening the door to yell at birds, and, when he noticed me going in, to throw a random shout my way as well. The only people inside were three angry looking men playing pool who glared me back out of the building. Well, so much for that. Since I was on a quest for a fish fry I decided to head down to Main Street and try the local branch of Llywelyn’s. The contrast was amazing. Instead of an empty parking lot, I had to park two blocks away. Inside the bustling restaurant, every table was full. I snagged …
