OT - Best Soul Food in South Bend
Looking for a nice piece of Catfish. Was told of one place that had tasty fish by several media outlets, but when I search for it on google, nothing comes up.
Any thoughts? Was the restaurant that the media kept slobbering over real? Could the press really keep reporting on something that nobody actually saw (don't answer that, Mitch Albom)? If the restaurant was fake, why and who created the faux dining establishment?

I think you saw a picture of catfish from a different restaurant, in Muncie.

Well played, sir.

I thought the place you are referring to tragically went out of business last year?

That's possible, but I looked through volumes of tax assessor records and can't find any proof that it ever even existed. Strange.

What shocks me is the reputation on the line. If this soulfood never existed it ruins the restaurants reputation and the reputation of the media outlets who ran with the story. If the soulfood is real it totally destroys the Yelp like entity claiming it never existed.

Well-played. I throw myself at the mercy of the Board. I was just trying to protect the MGoBrand. Now I need a drink . . .

wait wait wait. We can't help you with your food decision. Must wait for the world wide leaders of soul food to comment because they are always right and full of integrity.

"Thread steal" a women's basketball thread, Bub.
This is important... Notre Dame is embarassing itself.

I called the place, but all I heard was breathing. Then I fell asleep. When I woke up it was still just breathing.

South Bend officials are calling FreDonna's "fried catfish" a cruel hoax perpetrated on unsuspecting restaurant goers.

A tip of the hat to you good sir

I firmly believe Catfish is a hoax and I cannot believe those two dipshits got their own show. But what can I expect from the network that gave us Teen Mom and Jersey Shore?

Wrong thread - this is a thread about a good catfish restaurant I can't seem to find. You must be looking for another thread.
p.s. funny joke, seriously!

Did Albom fabricate stories other than something about former MSU players at the final four a few years ago, or are there other confirmed instances? I'm not familiar with what the OP is referencing. I'm not defending him, since I've heard he's, um, very difficult to deal with.

Thanks. Given the nature of some of his writing, one would not be out of line to suppose that half of his material is bull plop.

Drew Sharp allegedly flipped on the TV in the middle of Verlander's last no-hitter after getting a call from the editor and fabricated just a tad of what he saw. Though I hate Drew, I can't help but put a lot of the blame on the editors. Both that and the Albom piece show poor judgement on the editorial staff.
