We Fish and
Chipped the Island
and only gained 10
pounds!
This story began quite a few years ago. Was never posted, but it was a good
one so I have revived it.
We like fish and chips. Not really any nutrition
involved. Just all that fat and flavor!
We judge the slaw that usually accompanies the meal and
there have been a few flops and some great combinations.
Today's post is a tasting in Victoria. Do you really
want me to name places? Okay I will. We were at a hotel not downtown and in
between two main arteries! Ha pun (because we were there on a heart Dr appointment) intended. We were staying at the Comfort Inn http://comfortvictoria.ca/
on Blanshard and we needed food. We weren’t particularly interested in the
Denny’s down the block mostly because it was raining. We opted for the little
bar upstairs, Red’s Roadhouse Restaurant http://www.reddsroadhouse.com/, thinking it will be a tasty choice
for a change. We soon discovered that the special that evening was ... Fish and
Chips! I am not sure what kind of fish was offered, didn’t think to ask, but we
ordered a serving. The meal that was presented to us was the usual, fish fried,
with potato chips and a small serving of slaw. This was not greasy as some
meals have been and it was crunchy till the end. The fries were also crispy
which in my book is a plus. The slaw was the usual so nothing new here. We
enjoyed this serving and will recommend it to others.
