So two nights ago, Lindsay and I were prepared to fulfill our lenten penance filled with heaping quantities of fried or boiled seafood (yeah, I know, what a sacrifice). We quickly narrowed our options down to a couple of choices – Crescent City Brewhouse, Franky & Johnny’s, or Casamento’s. Luckily for us, we chose the latter. I saw this restaurant on the Food Network’s show “Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives,” and I was very intrigued. We arrive at Casamento’s at 8:00 p.m. to see a line curling out of the door. The restaurant is located on Magazine near the corner of Napoleon, right next to Miss Mae’s, which caused a good laugh as one of my friends once offered to buy a pretty young lady there a Milwaukee’s Best Light and – 5 years or so later – now they’re engaged to be married.
