Please excuse the dearth of posts. A few updates are needed.<br /><br />1. We lost a very important former member of the St. Boniface community in October 2009. Hildegarde Dierker Eiler passed away. Some of you may remember her from church for her interesting hats, or you may have known her when she worked at Southern Commercial Bank for many years.<br /><br />Hildegarde was from one of the earliest St. Boniface parish families and she was a very generous person. Hildegarde provided me with lots of historical details that are present in the <a href="http://www.stbonifaceonline.com/">www.stbonifaceonline.com</a> website. She was 99 years old.<br /><br />2. I posted in early 2009 that Jenni Brandel set up the <a href="http://www.facebook.com/reqs.php#/group.php?gid=6848323911">St. Boniface group on Facebook </a>and we had a whopping 40 members. I'm happy to report that, as of today, there are 211 members. Spread the word, folks, and let all of your friends know about it. You'd be surprised who's out there, all over the country.<br /><br />3. We are still getting a great response from the <a href="http://www.stbonifaceonline.com/fishfry.htm">Ultimate Fish Fry compendium</a>. To all of the folks throughout the country sending in suggestions and feedback, thank you. Got one? Send it!<br /><br />I will be updating the site in time for Lent, which this year starts on Ash Wednesday, February 17.<br /><br />Have a great new year!cbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12418546039088291262noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20748256.post-43490550598208461402009-08-10T19:39:00.003-05:002009-08-10T19:45:34.039-05:00Save the date - Saturday, October 4, 2009<span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">It's the </span><a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=114670477347">all-class St. Boniface reunion</a><span style="font-family:arial;">.

The people were nice, but it was just slow and the main dishes just weren't that good. This South County fry had frog legs, but my husband the connoiseur, stated they were just "marginal". The desserts were pretty good and the dine-in area was great, especially all the volunteers bussing the tables.<br /><br />I'm working again this week, so it's up to you all out there, to pass along your favorites, whether churches, restaurants, VFW or other organizations.</span>cbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12418546039088291262noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20748256.post-42941474423754341382009-03-27T08:33:00.001-05:002009-03-27T08:35:22.394-05:00Expect long lines...<span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">Especially, if you are going to pay a visit the <a href="http://stceciliaparish.com/">St. Cecelia fish fry </a>in South St. Louis today.

Cod, Shrimp, Chile Rellano, Quesadilla, Flautas, Tacos. We tried the Cod, Shrimp, Chille Rellano, Quesadilla and Flautas. The cod wasn't good. It was one of those square pieces that was unremarkable. Everything else was top notch. The side selection was pretty good and all tasted pretty good.<br /><br />The desserts we tried were fair - we had an oatmeal cookie and a piece of cake.<br /><br />You could buy beer and chips and salsa. The chips and salsa was good.<br /><br />The service was a little bit slow. You order and they give you a number. Then someone comes out with your food and looks for your number. We ordered and paid within 5 minutes of being there, but it took more than 30 minutes for our food to arrive to our table.<br /><br />They have a fish fry every Friday of Lent except for Good Friday.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>NOTE:</strong> St. Cecelia's fish fry was featured in the eat-drink-live section of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch today.<br /></span></span><br /><span style="font-family:arial;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><strong>Holy Redeemer, Webster Groves</strong> </span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">I also went to a Fish Fry at Holy Redeemer (</span><a href="http://www.holyr.org/" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">http://www.holyr.org/</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">) in Webster on 2/27/09. It was quite delicious. They have really good cod. Big pieces of fish, hand battered. Very good. They also have smoked salmon (but I don't like salmon). Their side selection is good. Desserts are delicious. This is a two thumbs up fish fry for me!! I don't have as much to say on this one - it's more of a typical fish fry, but it's very good.</span>cbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12418546039088291262noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20748256.post-70378150101722634242009-03-08T17:01:00.000-05:002009-03-08T17:02:11.500-05:00KHITS fish fry world tour, etc.<span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">See</span><a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://www.k-hits.com/promotions/fishfry.aspx"> the tour </a><span style="font-family:arial;">at one of three fish fries this season.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">March 20 - St. Joan of Arc, St. Louis</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">April 10 - Our Lady of the Pillar, Creve Coeur<br /><br />Joe Bonwich's <a href="http://www.stltoday.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=609370">Eat at Joe's forum</a> at www.stltoday.com has a whole section dedicated to fish fries.<br /></span></span>cbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12418546039088291262noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20748256.post-44435535778021271242009-03-06T20:33:00.003-06:002009-03-06T20:57:27.051-06:00Fish fry review 2009 - St. Luke's United Methodist, South County<span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-family: arial;">We went down Telegraph Road in South County and found this fish fry at </span><a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://www.stlukesumcmo.org/">St. Luke's United Methodist</a><span style="font-family: arial;">, right next to the Royale Orleans banquet hall. You can't miss the blue and white fish sign outside.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The parking lot is below grade, so it's hard to tell that there's much there right away, but once you park, you know they're frying fish in the neighborhood as you smell the ubiquitous frying oil. We headed in (use the only door on the parking lot) and got in line. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">At 5PM, there was a line with a menu posted outside the gym where the fish fry is held. There's a good selection of fish choices, including baked fish, catfish, jack salmon, hand-breaded cod and shrimp. Dinners range from $7 for any fish with two sides, $8 for a combo of two fish and two sides and $5 for a fish sandwich and one side. Sides are pretty standard--spaghetti, mac and cheese, slaw, French fries, applesauce, and hush puppies (which looked like they were homemade). Kids meals are $3 and they have lots of kid-friendly choices, such as mac and cheese, spaghetti and even a hot dog if Junior demands it. (Ours settled for three shrimp and spaghetti). </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Desserts are $1 and there was quite a selection. We chose the homemade apple pie, which was outstanding. Other choices included brownies and some things you don't normally see at fish fries, including banana split pie. Drinks, such as iced tea, lemonade and coffee are included in your price.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial; font-weight: bold;">Pros:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Very large portions of fish, some of it hand-battered (we had the catfish and it was great) before you as you wait in line. Our catfish was very, very hot!<br /><br />When things ran low, they substitute liberally!<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family: arial; font-weight: bold;">Cons:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">The line was a little slow. The cooking (almost) as you wait works great if you have a place to sit down.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">There were plenty of chairs set out, but not nearly enough tables to accommodate a really large crowd.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">They ran out of baked fish before 5PM. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Overall, St. Luke's is a delicious buy in this neck of the woods. Don't miss it.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Atmosphere: A-</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Food: B+</span><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Price: B+</span><br /></span></span>cbhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12418546039088291262noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20748256.post-27496458816082083382009-02-26T10:32:00.002-06:002009-02-26T10:44:29.183-06:00You've gotta go...<span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">...to join the </span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/notifications.php#/group.php?gid=6848323911"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">St. Boniface in Carondelet group</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"> at </span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">Facebook</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"> if you haven't already.

Happy New Year!<span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">Yes, time flies when you're busy (or having fun).<br /><br />2008 was a busy year for this webmaster, and I have to tell you, we're missing a lot of the folks who were around when St. Boniface closed, and that's a bit sad.<br /><br />It is promising, however, that the St. Boniface group on Facebook (see this </span><a href="http://stbonifaceonline.blogspot.com/2008/03/stb-hits-facebook.html"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">previous post</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">) keeps growing and growing. Jenni Brandel Owens started this group last March and there are already over 40 members. If you are on Facebook, join this group. It's free and you'll run into a lot of people from St. Boniface from near and far. If you're not, go on over to </span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">http://www.facebook.com/</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"> and join the St. Boniface in Carondelet group, and you won't miss a thing!<br /><br />Also of note, we're getting closer to Lent and everyone knows what that means--the fish fries are back in abundance. If you haven't checked it out already, see the Ultimate Fish Fry Compendium on </span><a href="http://www.stbonifaceonline.com/"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">http://www.stbonifaceonline.com/</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">.<br /><br />If you like to go and eat at various fish fries around town, send your reviews in and we'll post them right here! Surprisingly, </span><a href="http://www.stbonifaceonline.com/fishfry.htm"><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;">the fish fry page</span></a><span style="font-family:arial;font-size:85%;"> on the St. Boniface web site is the most popular--over 7000 unique visitors paid a visit in the last year. Lent is our most popular season, but we get hits year-round.<br /><br />I wish all of you a great 2009.

Later, I knew John as the floral designer at Southern Floral.<br /><br />As I got older, I knew John as one of the good folks who worked with the St. Boniface St. Vincent de Paul Society. He was always a cheerful spirit hauling back all the items that people placed in the boxes in the back of church to the food pantry. He always let us know what we donated was appreciated, and my husband and I (and a few other regulars) always liked to stop and help him get his donations carried wherever he needed them after church.<br /><br />Our condolences go out to the Moynihan family today.
