Live, from Peoria, Illinois, it’s Saturday Night, starring this week’s host, The Fish House and featuring special guest stars, Dori, Jack, Tim, Kay, Joe, Connie, Jenny, Nathan and Paul…whew!
Now, please welcome this week’s host and legendary Peoria restaurant and bar, The Fish House!
First stop: MBIP World Headquarters
I went out with a group of my friends from way back in our high school days and it was great to see all of them and we met at the MBIP World Headquarters before venturing out to dinner.
Here’s the group of people I’m lucky to call my friends from way back in the day, from the left: Connie, Kay, Dori, Jack, Joe and Tim.
We had a couple pre-dinner cocktails at the MBIP World Headquarters and then took off for dinner at…
——
The Fish House
The Fish House which is handily located about two blocks down the street from the MBIP World Headquarters!
Here we are and let’s head inside the door and start this Saturday night adventure!
I knew it would be crowded, so I went earlier and took some shots of the outside and the dining room right as it opened.
Here’s the pre-dinner photos.
And here we are a few hours later at our table.
Lucky I made reservations because the place is packed!
Our pretty and friendly waitress for the evening is Jenny and she did a spectacular job for the evening and look at that beautiful smile she graced us with!
We all placed our dinner orders with Jenny and had a pre-dinner cocktail.
What a fun and wonderful evening this is!
I took a few candid unflashed photos before the dinner arrived. Hey, it’s what I do!
Here’s a few shots of our delicious dinner appetizers and entrees.
The food at The Fish House is legendary and it lives up to the wonderful reviews that it has received through the years.
We all truly enjoyed the fantastic food here on this magical Saturday evening!
After dinner we went to the Fish House bar which I took a few pre-dinner photos of and they are featured right here.
Nathan and Paul were the bartenders on duty. Nathan is fairly new here and has been doing duty behind the bar for about six months.
Paul is the veteran bartender here and has been slinging drinks here for at least over a decade in here.
He’s famous for his neckties in here and tonight’s didn’t disappoint, it’s a pink flamingo necktie. Nice!
This is my last shot of the night from our table at the bar in the Fish House. Proof that you shouldn’t drink and photograph!
Thanks to Dori, Jack, Kay, Tim, Joe and Connie for joining me for a fun Saturday night dinner. Great to share past and present memories and thanks to all of them for the wonderful friendship through the years!
