slapout Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 sardines, if good quality and small make good snacks. A flat can with 2 layers of fish (small fish) in oil is what I look for but are almost impossible to find here in CM. Rimpin on the river used to get them (Norway) but they went to a cheaper, brand which is only good for cat food. sorry for off topic but saw sardines mentioned. fish and chips for a real meal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The picture was unappealing and people ARE attracted by appearance - marketing proves that. Suggest you remove that one from your advertising as it sounds like it doesn't do you, or your establishment, justice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stament Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Paul the chips look positively appetising compared to the fish. The batter looks dreadful !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonwilly Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I have dined at Gonzo's place several times and been well satisfied with his Food as served. But As most folk know to us poor Brits there is only one Fish & Chips, Cod, North Sea or Atlantic Cod Fried in Beer Batter preferably in Lard, served with double fried potatoes "Chipped" into the size we prefer. Not Frog Fries. Simple honest folk us Brits. As one Winston Spencer once said 2 Folks separated by a common language. Or somefing like that. john Cheers troops.

worgeordie Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 If I owned a restaurant ,I would never post pictures on here, no matter how good the food and presentation looked or the cost very competitive,someone would always give you a bad review,as you cannot satisfy all the people all of the time, That said,breaded fish and chips does not do it for me,the funny thing is when they started offering fried fish in olde London town, the customers throw the batter away and only ate the fish,the batter was just used to protect the fish while it was deep fried. not a lot of people know that regards worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NigelKennedy Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I find Yummy Pizza has the best fish and chips,they use Cod. Most use that toxic Vietnmese Pangasus often called Dory fish.Sent from my SM-J700F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of 'Elf & Safety' you cannot buy 'slops' of beer any more but you can still get batter 'scraps' in the private F&C shops in Glasgow! PS; Again because of 'Elf & Safety' the F&C shops now have to use 'proper' food paper wrappings - not old newspapers! I am sure the type ink and malt vinegar added to the taste (along with the large pickled onions)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
