---Fish fry review---…read more I stopped by the fish fry at Sacred Heart in Shadyside last Fri. with a friend. I'd originally planned to visit one in Polish Hill, but I had an appointment after 5 and they stop serving at 6, so we decided to try Sacred Heart, which runs until 7:30, instead. As usual, I called in my order ahead of time, and it was taken and fulfilled with no hassles. When we showed up at 6, our food awaited us, so we paid and grabbed a seat. Both of us ordered the fried fish dinner ($9 each). Both came with sides of cole slaw, and I ordered mac and cheese as my second side, whereas my friend ordered fries. Like the fish fry at St. Raphael, the fish dinners here come with a dinner roll, but not as a sandwich. In terms of quality, the fish here was a cut below the fish at the last fry I attended (at St. Maria Goretti in Bloomfield)--it just wasn't as fresh. My friend said that he found the fish moister than the fish at the last fry we attended together (at Epiphany Uptown), and while this may have been true, freshness is the most important factor to me when judging the quality of fish. As for the sides, the cole slaw was of the creamy variety and was rather sweet (disclaimer: I'm not much of a fan of cole slaw in general), and the fries and mac and cheese were of average quality and were a bit scant in quantity. The one major redeeming factor of this fish fry--believe it or not--was the desserts. Although they were no doubt pre-made, they were presented very nicely, and were a cut above the lousy desserts at St. Raphael's. I had a slice of lemon meringue pie and my friend had a slice of blueberry ($2 each), and we both enjoyed them. For me, this was the high point of the meal. The environment and clientele of this fish fry reminded me a lot of St. Raphael--it's held in an elementary school cafeteria, and most of the clientele consisted of families with young children who probably attend the school. The priest came around and greeted all of the diners, including us, which was a nice touch. For me, this fish fry was just A-OK. If it's convenient in terms of location, then it's worth a try--otherwise, I'd recommend skipping it to try a better one, such as Swissvale VFD's.

They come home with a folder of the days learning and it's usually a new letter in capital and lowercase. Today's letter was M and m. My nephew Is having a hard time drawing those letters although he can trace them right. I know he's learning a lot from being there though. He always comes home with a story about how his day went and what he did. The school itself is nice and has a beautiful exterior with planted bushes and a large tree. They newly paved the entrance and sidewalks so it gives the school and updated look. Whenever you first come up to the building you are greeted by the teacher who releases your child once the teacher recognizes your face. I love the feel of security the school has that makes your child feel safe. They have security guards there and no one is allowed in the school that shouldn't be. That makes me feel safe knowing my nephew is being looked over.

This review is limited to the high school musical production of "Spamalot." Woodland Hills School…read moreDistrict has in previous years tackled some of the most difficult Broadway musicals to produce on a high school stage. Among these previous musicals include "Phantom of the Opera" and "Sweeney Todd." My girlfriend and I went to see this production and believe me they not only nailed it to perfection but added some recent events into the action. For example, when they were announcing the winner of who found the grail they opened the envelope and read "La La Land" It was a cute throwback to the Academy Awards goof. This musical had us laughing like there was no tomorrow. The set design, costumes, ensemble were spot on. We sat directly in front of the orchestra which belted out the tunes with a solid dexterity. We were even amazed that they could replicate the videos used on the curtains during intermission and the ending. Spamalot is loosely based on Monty Python and the Holy Grail. It won the 2004 Tony award for best musical and has been seen on occasion at Pittsburgh CLO summer series. This was the first time I ever saw it done in a high school. Strobe lights, gunshot noises, ice steam were all part of the special effects. I read in the program that to recreate the period all of the costumes had to be made by hand. Woodland Hills High School has won some of the Gene Kelly awards for excellence in musical theater with some of their past productions. They have been nominated again this year for Spamalot. Also what's great is that it is so reasonable to see an outstanding musical at a very inexpensive price. I will be anxious to see what they choose next year because they certainly will be on my return list for musical theater.
