I don't normally eat deep-fried foods at all (aside from the occasional pupu), but "when in rome", I thought... as I devoured three big slabs of deep fried Tennessee catfish, a big plate o' cheese grits, and my side order of hush puppies (only two of 'em!) for $8. That was a month ago, but I think I'm gonna be sick right about now, sort of a time-delay nausea...
