The Icelandic Cod Sandwich is not normally served on the bread with the Garlic Butterine, you just have to ask. I wanted it just like they make their Poor Boys, and it was very, very good.

So then we went to Wine and Cheese by Two Clueless Chicks in Plainfield. http://www.wcbytcc.com/home.html

3 Cheese 1 Meat Chefs Choice.
Three Cheese Plate.
Fig and Baked Brie
We all had a great time!
