re: Best thin catfish in Nola?

I like thin fried catfish, but the last 2 times I stopped at Middendorfs in Manchac, it was so thin that you could not see anything inside of the batter. There was no taste of fish. It was like fried batter chips.

Same experience. Middendorf's sucks. Location doesn't matter. On top of the fish being paper thin, all fried dishes have zero seasoning/flavor. Just bland arse seafood like we're in Minnesota or something. My wife's family just tried to get me to stop there this weekend. I told them hell no and kept driving.
