Permanent home is now at Mt Vernon Marketplace!

Thank you, Kat! We opened last night at Mount Vernon Marketplace with a smaller menu because that kitchen is super tiny.  I am still waiting for some equipment. Grand opening is on May 31st.

Battered fried catfish!

I made a beeline to Mount Vernon Marketplace to indulge in the offerings I had no doubt would deliver deliciousness. I have not had the chance to venture to College Park to visit the flagship location of Fishnet so I had no idea of what the menu was, but was pleased to learn that the choices at this location did not read like a CVS receipt. With the intentional list of choices, I opted for the fried catfish, which comes with 2 choices of sides. The mac & cheese is so good, I wished I could order in bulk. Not sure how they manage to create the smokiness without the addition of bacon, but it hits all  the right notes. Batter fried catfish sandwich was a home run as well. 

It was also nice to catch up with Kia, @Ferhat Yalcin's wife. She mentioned to me that there will be a third location slated to open for Fall 2019 in Columbia.  She shared with me the challenges of being a business owner, and the 8 years it took to find their groove. With Fishnet, they are creating a sustainable business model to which they are confident in expanding. The decision to close Drift on 7th was a hard one, but they came to a realization that the model was not feasible both financially as well as mentally. Giving birth to a restaurant takes commitment of  essentially being their 100% of the time, and not having that ability,  lead  do  reassessing what they wanted to do. Often taking a few steps back to take a look at the big picture ensures success for what you ultimately envision. Following their growth fills me with such a profound joy that I am fortunate to call them friends.Well done, Ferhat. Well done.

Delish,

kat
