Sometimes fish and chips is a problem on Fridays, with line ups, indifferent service and low quality in late afternoon. I stopped going to Jasper's when they gave me a bunch of small overcooked fish balls instead of a nice haddock fillet.
Now I go to Malt 'n Salt, a friendly place with no line ups and first rate fish and chips. It's in a tiny neighborhood plaza close to 401.
I order haddock, a sustainable catch promoted here . Halibut is available but I don't know its provenance. The proprietor is very careful and fussy about his fry technique, and so, the fish is always crispy but not overcooked.
Customers here always seem to be pleased. And that includes me!
