I worship Captain D's

It really is a great little seafood place. Lots of choices, great fries, cute guys working the counter.

And I love tartar sauce.

Captain D's sucks ass.

We don't all live in Bowling Green, Kentucky OP. There isn't a Captain D's within 500 miles or Manhattan or Los Angeles for example. So you need to wait a little longer than 16 minutes before replying to your own thread.

I've only known one person who was a Captain D's freak.

She was a traveling media rep when I knew her.

When she flew to a new city to call on a potential advertiser, she would look to see if there was a Captain D's nearby she could visit.

It was definitely a THING with her. Wasn't the least bit embarrassed about it!

There is nothing wrong with captain D's. It's fast food.

Captain D used to be great until they got rid of their 'roasted' potatoes I used to eat Their country style fish but now it's something processesed. The fish is always undercooked. B

There is no fast food fish place in Southern California.

It's quite good but the fish filets have shrunk noticeably in the past year. Still it's far better than Long John Silver's or Red Lobster.

The tartar sauce is the best I've had in any restaurant, regardless of price. Too often it's sweet instead of tart. Get from the pump dispensers in the restaurant, not the take-out packets.

It's for fat people who have no taste for a decent fish

No one puts "sauce" on meat. If you have to put a "sauce" on meat than you are using inferior cuts of meat. Try buying decent cuts of meat from a real butcher.

OP Your thread set off one of the food snobs, who declared Captain D's the worst fast food ever. Im guessing they haven't actually tried much fast food.

Would OP compare and contrast Captain D with the Long John Silver place for us?

R23 I'm not the OP but the last time I ate at Long John Silvers, the food was dry, almost stale, as if it had been prepared in advance and held under a heat lamp.

The difference (at least locally) can be seen by the long lines, though never a long wait, at Captain D's. I've never been given food that wasn't steaming, moist and hot, fresh from the fryer.

I haven't been to a Long John Silver's in years. I'm loyal to my Captain.

Except when they do, and they do. Frequently.

For those who object to the idea of tartar sauce (!?), Captain D's fish is excellent as is or with malt vinegar.

Hot Cap'n D's fish is delicious as is their hush puppies. And it's "Cap'n".

The housing crisis is caused by the uneven recovery after the 2008 crash that's shrinking the middle class, while the Bay Area continues to offer high paying tech jobs.

Techies can live in mountain view and get more for less, but they all say the same thing: they want to live in San Francisco for the lifestyle and promise of excitement and because Mountain View is boring.

That's why we have a housing crisis, it's got zero to do with neighborhood zoning, building or planning. If the banks started lending money like they did pre-2008 and the upper-middle-class start making as much money elsewhere with better living conditions, then they'll flee the city just like they did after the 1998 dotcom bust.

No affordable housing in the city until that happens or until after the quake. You want San Francisco landlords to care and give you a good product--end rent control and everyone pays market rate. And 50,000+ apartments would become available.

No, Texans use barbeque sauce. Good quality meat, prepared properly requires no sauce. If you have to use a sauce you are covering up inferior product or cooking techniques.

I loved the aforementioned Crunchy Thangs, fish, etc. at LJS in college.

I used to see Arthur Treacher's around every once in a while as a kid, but didn't know about fish and chips and the time.

Is AT's any good?

Wow, no joke. The classic cuisines of the world all feature meat dishes with various accompanying sauces.

I went last week and I think they've reformulated the tartar sauce. Noooo!!!! It was sweeter than it used to be.

There are lemon slices, presumably for iced tea, on the condiment bar and a squeeze of lemon helped cut the sweetness.
