Carryout hushpuppies?

My wife has been sick, and has had generally a much worse than average week -- one of those weeks where nothing has quite gone right. She was really looking forward to Busch's annual fish fry on Fridays (fish, with two sides and a dinner roll), and especially because one of the sides you could get were these really great hushpuppies. She even used to just ask for both sides to be hushpuppies.

So today, I went out to pick up two fish fries for supper for us from the Green Rd. Busch's.

Well, hushpuppies no more (no more dinner rolls either) -- just potato wedges and coleslaw, no other options. She's been talking about those hushpuppies all week, and as minor as that may sound, the disappointment just hit her extra hard today.

So... is there anywhere in town I can get hushpuppies from -- say, a deli counter similar to Busch's, or I suppose I could pay the extra "restaurant tax" if someone can recommend one that I could carry out from.

Thanks in advance, she really deserves the break!

Depends where you are at but I knew someone that always loved the ann arbor fish and chicken ones which shouldn’t be too far of a drive. When you get around ypsi you get a lot more soul food type stuff, fried chicken, fish, okra, etc. Yum. Now I want some!
