T & S Kitchen has a really good fried fish sandwich
T & S Kitchen’s silver food truck in Champaign has a menu of fried fish, fried chicken, fried shrimp, sides, and two different cakes by the slice. I ordered the fried fish sandwich ($15, fries included), which was a long bun stuffed with double fish filets, leaf lettuce, sliced tomato, white onion slivers, pickle discs, and a delicious tartar sauce. Hot and fried to order, the fish tasted phenomenal with gritty cornmeal and ultra tender, flaky fish. And two filets? That sandwich was stacked and really good.
