Last week I was out running an errand for work.. I realized I must have got a whiff of the near by Battered Fish because I suddenly had a serious hunger for Fish and Chips. It isn't something I find myself in the mood for nowadays but couldn't shake the thought of it after I found myself wanting it. I stopped by after work.
I grew up in the Maritime provinces and fish and chips were my chicken fingers and fries for years. Now to each their own, but when I crave fish and chips my taste buds have specific expectations for the fish..
Has to be beer battered, has to have good ratio of batter to fish, and good crunch and flavour... With ketchup. I had tried a piece of fish from an extremely popular joint around here when my housemate had gotten fish and chips and I was really disappointed. For that reason I was a bit hesitant to order a 3 piece since I hadn't tried the fish here before.. but I went for it. I even got take out and walked all the way home before eating it. Amazingly enough it was NOT soggy, phewf. Could have been luck. Anyway, it was delicious and I was really pleased with the taste of the fish. My taste buds weren't let down, which is the most important part.
The girl at the counter was so friendly and nice. She ensured I had plenty of ketchup as I told her I don't have it at home. I have recommended my housemate to come here for proper fish and chips. I am happy to know I can come here if I need good beer battered fish in the future :)
