The Difference in Fish and Chips Standards

It's been a long while. Have been busy with army and there's not much time to think about entries to put up. I was looking through pictures and found something that I could talk about.

Yes, the difference in fish and chips standards between Singapore and Australia. When I went to Adelaide, I tried South Australia's No.2 stall according to my colleague. When I went to Perth, I tried Western Australia's No.1 stall according to them.



Adelaide's runner-up.


Perth's best.

So what's the difference between these two and fish and chips from Singapore?

Okay okay, I have received answers that one has fries and one with no fries but that's not the right difference I'm looking for. Reader jessica says it's the paper! That's true. I have not seen paper wrapped fish and chips in Singapore yet.

The difference is the thickness of the batter on the fish. Fish and chips in Kopitiam, Fish and Co. and many places have very very thick batter to make the fish look big. Furthermore, the batter may not be very crispy or might even be soggy. However, these two that I tried in Australia had a thin layer of batter on it. So when it came out hot from the fryer, it was light and crispy! Goodie good stuff. Must just remember to drink lots of water after the meal because of the salt. Bring your own sauce too! Perhaps Lingham's sauce? :D

Ah, the fries were like Mos's. Haha. That's the end readers! Have a nice day!
