Sandra's on the Park Review
A review of the restaurant, Sandra's on the Park, located in Hales Corners, Wisconsin.I recently dined with family at Sandra's on the Park on a Friday evening. We each enjoyed the fish fry, available in either a 3-piece or 4-piece. For a small additional charge, soup and/or salad can be added.
We all agreed that the beer batter was done to absolute perfection. The french fries, coleslaw, and additional clam chowder were all very flavorful and satisfying. The additional house salad I had with ranch dressing was gourmet and hit the spot. Loaded with a colorful and lush array of vegetables, we're not talking a plate of iceberg with a couple of cucumbers and tomato slices here. And the marble rye bread was salted, a treat that you don't seem to find much in restaurants anymore. On top of that, it already comes buttered for you!
For dessert, try the authentic New York cheesecake with homemade (made daily in-house) raspberry sauce. Mmm...
Pleasant dining atmosphere and friendly, helpful staff combine with the food to make Sandra's on the Park a big win.

Milwaukee Fish Fry
Places To Enjoy a Great Fish Fry in Milwaukee
The Friday fish fry is one of Milwaukee's most cherished and distinctive traditions. In fact, visit most other cities and ask where to get the "best fish fry," and you're likely to be met with a blank stare. The Friday fish fry stems from Catholic tradition, which forbids the consumption of meat on Fridays during Lent. Fish fries became an easy way to avoid meat while enjoying a night out and eating affordably. The tradition grew from there, providing Milwaukee families an opportunity to go out to dinner without breaking the bank.
Most places in town have fish fries, and this guide couldn't possibly cover them all; but after much searching, asking and eating, here are some of the best places in the city to catch a fish fry.
