PB, I LOVE the Black Whale, but I wouldn't want to go on a Lenten Friday!
And who could blame you? But for us, we just jump on 95 at Country Club Road and we're on the Hutch in less than 2 minutes. So even though the wait at the restaurant will be God awful, at least it's transient for us.
I love the "pubby" atmosphere at the Whale. I think you just made up my mind for me .
