It's funny, when I was a kid I loved fish and chips because of the chips, and excess of ketchup and vinegar I'd put on them. The fish was alright, but only really there becuase my Mum wouldn't let just have the chips. Nowadays, while I appreciate a good chip, it's the quality of the fish and the lightness of the batter that really makes the meal, those and some good mushy peas. I go easy on the vinegar and ketchup these days.

Also, did anyone else always have bread and butter and a cup of tea with theirs?

In restaurants attached to fish shops, the reluctantly margarine=smeared white bread arrived just before stainless steel te- and water pots, and a milk jug too small for refills. The bread n marg was gone long before the F & C arrived.

Dio - always been a ketchup man and still am, appreciate a non greasy bit of fish and good chips.

We had bread but no ONE DOES NOT DRINK TEA and strangely, probably, I don't like hot drinks with my meal, even breakfast the coffee comes after the food or a long time before NEVER with

There's a really good chippie by Clacton pier that requires you to specify if you *don't* want bread and butter and a mug of tea. I think the default fish&chips is an all-in thing.
