    Totally agree Art Mels went downhill, last time I visited in 2019 was such poor food hygiene when handling that I never went back. My goto was Generosa;s.

      Generosas is legit! They moved to hamilton, by the way

    I haven't been in Bermuda since 2017. But when I was there, Art Mel's had the best fish sandwich there. (at least in a lot of people's opinion) I had it, and thought it was great! I'm sorry to hear that the quality of it has diminished.

    • @OmarJames
      @OmarJames  3 роки тому

      Arthur died around that time and the quality has been on a slow decline since then, unfortunately. Some people still love 'em, but it's not the consensus favorite like it once was

    P.s. Ony in Bermuda do we consider "a little over $30 (USD)" a reasonable price for two sandwiches..lol

    15$ each sandwich it shows how expensive Bermuda is and there was no bones inside of the fish. Also the rock fish is used to make a bouillabaisse.

    Come on Omar! I'm a Bermudian living in London and I haven't had a proper fish sandwich in far too long! Cafe Olé looks WELL but I need more in-depth analysis, they can't be the ONLY people making good fish sandwiches in Bermuda. I was sad to hear about Art Mel's passing and it's unfortunate that quality has suffered since then. The closure of Fish Hut was troubling as well. Sid's Seafood used to make a good fish sandwich too. Whatever happened to them? Are they still around?
    In other words, can you do an exposé on the history and slow demise of the Bermuda Fish Sandwich? When Fish Hut closed I was very upset to hear that they wouldn't be reopening. For me, it was the loss of a Bermuda Institution. Why did it close and not reopen? More importantly, who has the recipe? Did Plankton steal the recipe? I digress

      @OmarJames  3 роки тому +1

      Shieet, i cant deny that’s a great idea I just dunno how i’d find the time to put it all together. But! I definitely planning to explore the topic more because the overall decline of the bermuda fish sandwich needs to be discussed! Sids closed his store i believe, and now only operates during special events like cupmatch....but don’t quote me on that. If anyone can confirm or deny drop a comment!

    it's so good!! I don't eat alot, it's a really hard thing for me to do actually.. but when I first ever tried their fish sandwish I was able to eat the whole thing in one sitting. Since its kinda far where I live and I'm too young to drive I'm not able to have it alot, but when I do its totally worth it! (Raisin bread is the best)
