Here's the Fish & Chip shop mentioned yesterday. The sign reads "PARKING 15 mins ONLY 7 DAYS". I doesn't look too busy in this photo because it was a little early, but this is one of the most popular, and in a little while you'd be lucky if you can get away in half an hour; we've waited as long as 45 minutes for our fish, chips, and deep-fried pineapple rings. Wait, I had to wait longer, but that's another story entirely. I shot this on 14 October, but took this long to decide to post because Mr two-fish-extra-salt-on-chips is looking this way. I thought of "defacing" him so he couldn't be identified, but I like it just the way it is. I do love people photos, but am still nervous about taking them, let alone posting.
I will not be able to visit your blogs in the coming week/s, though Ben will continue to post my pics. I hope to catch up with you when my busy week passes. Thanks.
I love fish & chips, straight from the paper with a little salt & vinegar. Fattening I know, but delicious.

Hi Meg, you must be busy with your exhibition...ALL THE BEST and GREAT SUCCESS!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by every one.
ReplyDeleteWe have few more Meg's schedule shot, but please excuse for commenting back. She might do comment when she likes too (I'm sure). hehe
I'm not sure about the deep-fried pineapple rings, myself. But good luck on the weaving--all your hard work will pay off!
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting, everybody, including Husband!
ReplyDeleteEve, the one time we did that, they were one fish short!
Cristina, it's good... It's very good.
Deep fried pineapple rings? Oddly enough, these (from a tin naturally) used to be very popular in Ireland in the 70s. I have very fond childhood memories of Saturday night visits to our favourit restaurant and having chicken maryland with deep fried bananas and pineapple rings. (& massive pavlova to follow) Don't think I could manage them now!
ReplyDeleteMust be one of the things Irish immigrants brought to NZ, OR, possibly one entrepreneurial Kiwi being hard up for cash during his OE (overseas experience - a rite of passage for many Kiwis) and starting a business, do you think?
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh - deep fried pineapple rings??? never heard of that, but it sounds divine!
ReplyDeleteIt IS great - crunchy on the outside, juice and sweet on the inside. Happiness itself in a small package.
