Take that, Recession! Philadelphia Fish & Co. just zinged you.

Not Philly Fish & Co., but you get the idea.

Philadelphia Fish & Co. is the latest hero of our never-ending search for cheap edibles, bargain hangovers and free info-tainment. The Old City seafooderie is getting butts in the seats with this bar-only deal:

One pint PBR, half a grilled cheese sandwich and a bowl o' tomato soup for $3.11.

So you're headed back to work or out on the town with a belly full of butter, white bread, and sweet sweet beer. PBR is sort of beer, right?

Big ups to City Paper assistant publisher Roxanne Cooper who turned Meal Ticket on to this, the finest cheapest meal in the greater Old City area.

Fair Warning: If you tip 60 cents on this lunch, which is technically 20 percent, you will be rocked by the most epic food poisoning/hideous breakup/ill-timed joke of your life. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but that bastardly tip karma always gets its man.

Philadelphia Fish & Co., 207 Chestnut St., 215-625-8605
