No doubt it is a personal preference item as the rest of the family loved gram's F&C's. Broiled with mango salsa is much more my style. Blackened is even better. Gee, is it lunch time yet?

What does this mean??
Fast food store, ranging the whole gamut of fried foods.
I just got F&C for lunch.
Where did you get it, Tom?
A strange shop on Fulton street with a Chinese proprietor. I got the "whiting" fish, and a weird substance the man said was vinegar. But since it was a few hundred yards from the fish market, at least it was fresh.
Wait a second, people try to put non-malt vinegar on fries/chips?? EW.
I had fish and chips for lunch. It's all your fault.
Whiting is my FAAAAAAVORITE fish.
But I think it would be too thin.
I seem to recall that British fish and chip shops were specifically forbidden from using newspapers as wrapping, for hygiene reasons, as long ago as the eighties.
I remember that because, when Princess Diana was engaged to Prince Charles, the media wrote about her that her favourite food was "fish and chips from a proper fish and chip shop wrapped in newspaper" -- thereby giving the impression that either:
- The whole thing was complete bullshit, or more disturbingly
- The Princess was so sheltered from the real world she was getting fake fish and chips, rewrapped in specially-sanitised newspaper
But John, how do you know it wasn't her saying "My favorite food is fish and chips wrapped in a newspaper, and damn them for not making it anymore!"?
Oh, I don't think so, it was just one of those things which was meant for us to think "oh, she's just a girl-next-door really, god bless her, she even eats fish and chips just the way we eat it" which fell horribly flat.
