Frog Legs Are the Shining Stars of This Downingtown Dinner
Depending on whom you ask, frog legs taste like an amphibious version of chicken wings or something else entirely. You’ll likely get a variety of opinions from the 800 men at the Aug. 1 dinner at St. Anthony’s Lodge & Swim Club in Downingtown. As part of a 90-year tradition, they’ll wash down 6,500 sets of deep-fried frog legs with plenty of beer. It’s part of a $50 meal that also includes salad, veal (cooked with Kennett Square mushrooms), chicken, Italian bread, and enough pepper and lemon to sweeten the frog. Earning a mention in Guinness World Records, the more raucous frog leg dinners often lasted as late as 2 a.m. under floodlights, with Frank Sinatra blaring over the loudspeakers.
