Fish Fillet
Herfy’s answer to the Filet-O-Fish: a crispy breaded fish fillet with tartare sauce and a slice of cheese. It is small and simple, and one of the few things on the menu that is neither beef nor chicken.
The story
The fried fish burger traces back to Cincinnati in 1962, when McDonald’s franchisee Lou Groen invented one to keep his Catholic customers coming on Fridays, when they would not eat meat. Ray Kroc pitted it against his own meatless idea, a grilled pineapple and cheese “Hula Burger”, and the fish won so clearly that it became the national Filet-O-Fish in 1965. The format, a breaded fillet with tartare sauce and cheese, spread to burger chains worldwide. Herfy, Saudi Arabia’s home-grown burger chain, serves it the same way.
