They normally know those questions. Always check things like seasonal veges, fish of the day etc.
This is why fish and chip shops are so hot and miss. If it's sole fillet or blue cod it costs more.
The fish is exactly that could be anything. If you're lucky it's hoki cooked well and reasonably fresh.
Otherwise it's probably shark/dogfish probably not that fresh, may not be stored that well or might even be frozen minced fish in patties (which can be better than normal "fish"). I've seen the patties made it's just minced up off cuts frozen in the factory (which is off the boat).
And if it's just badly cooked or really cheap and nasty bleah.
Last fish I had from fish and chip shop was hoki beautiful light batter with tartare sauce.
Last fish I tried was mates orange roughy which was like a nicer hoki.
Not a fan of salmon, trout, groper etc.
I’m going to be working with an unusual igredient (for me) soon: leftover fried chicken.
Went to Popeye’s and got a family pack, but they shorted us on 1/3 of the chicken…including ZERO wings, Mom’s favorite part. So after we ate, I went back to the store and explained what happened. No hesitation- they started boxing up some chicken.
Allow me to clarify: they gave me a complete replacement box of the chicken. (And we still had leftovers from the original partial order.)
So I now have more fried chicken on hand than I normally want as leftovers. So I’m planning on deboning some of it for use in salads or sandwiches. And regardless of THAT, I’m thinking of bagging some of it for possible freezing.

Started my vacation with this interesting drink... Snake Venom Potion (vodka, pear, apple, green mandarin, vanilla & lime) . Tasted sweet, no trace of alcohol in the taste...
And yes, they do like a bit of dry ice in the drinks to make them bubble and smoke...

So this thread is all about what we are cooking? Sounds fun!
Tonight I made shrimp burritos. I thawed frozen shrimp then cooked them in olive oil and garlic salt. We had them in burritos with chili pinto beans, avocado, tomatoes, cheese, mango salsa and a squeeze of lime. They were super good!
I paired it with a salad, the greens of which were harvested by our consistently fog-bound garden.

Gonna start soon prepping the chicken.
Home made fried chicken (in an air fryer) put in homemade wraps or pita.

How do you like your air fryer? I keep hearing of people getting them.

It's great. Quick, convenient, better health. Falafel, chicken, chips, jalapeno poppers are great.
Don't use the oven much now except for grilling.
