Haven’t lived in the UK for 43 years and absolutely love T&Js. The best fish and chips this side of Yorkshire. Eat there regularly. Try to go a few times a month. Also the owner’s are lovely people! Always very welcoming.

@@robertwilson7045 40 years ago, the chippy I worked in as a youth, the Haddock fillets came in half stone boxes and I'd cut them into ~2-4 portions or a 'special' which were the single smaller fillets, which is probably what Lee was served. The Icelandic Cod fillets came in and I'd cut them into 10+ thicker portions. Some Cod fillets came in a single 2stone box, so were much much thicker then the Haddock, but never looked as impressive as the Haddock.

Welcome to the MacMaster, world fish and chip tour! You are becoming renowned for your food reviews, renowned for not really knowing what you are on about.😅 I hear there are a couple of good fish and chip shops in northern Siberia, I would be keen to see you go and try them.🤔🙄 To stay true to your methodology, while in Cyprus you could walk around for a couple of hours looking at Cypriot restaurants, and then decide to eat in a mall food court.😂😉

That food looked really nice. It wasn't until the 17th Century that fried fish first made an appearance on British shores. It was actually brought over by Sephardic Jews from Portugal and Spain, who got the idea from a traditional food they knew and loved from their old homes, called pescadito frito.

Hi Lee, looks like you had a lucky find with the Olde English fish and chip shop. I rate it 8/10 which is a pretty good score. Yes, I loved fish and chips when I was in London. Bit of a hit or miss but when it was good you forget all your guilt about the batter. In fact, that's when you know the fish is great ! I like how you included other people in your video. Makes sense to ask their opinion and mix things up a bit, as they say. Looking forward to the next episode, Mr MacMaster !

The tradition of serving fish n chips with lemon (or vinegar in the poorer north of the UK) was to cut through the mouth-feel fat. Fish n chips were traditionally cooked in animal fats, which left your mouth coated in goo, due to the high melting point. Vinegar (or lemon juice if you're further south) would aid the digestion of that animak fat mouth coating. A hot cup of tea also did the same job, hence that tradition too. Today, fish n chips are cooked in vegetable shortenings which have a lower melting point then body temperature so dont actually require the acidic digestion assistance. (File that useless info and forget it!)
@ScratchySlide8 ай бұрын
They taste far better in animal fat though. Beef dripping is the best. They have no flavour when done in oil.....

Rather scant range of fish, Cod and Haddock(seems I am wrong on Haddock by your meal) both rather greasy oily fish to my recollection. I much prefer our Australian 🇦🇺 choices of fish at Fish & Chip shops . I do realise you missed that oily Cod as a choice here, but to me Snapper, Flathead, Flake (shark), Hoki and so many more non oily/greasy fish varieties are preferred.
