A question for the Americans (and anyone else who isn't an Aussie).
I have it on good authority that we have 'fush and chups'.

A Chicago-style hot dog is a "Vienna Red Hot" beef hot dog, on a poppy-seed bun, garnished with yellow mustard, green relish, chopped onions, sliced tomato wedges, kosher pickle spear, sport peppers, and celery salt.
A lot of these places also serve gyros, a sort of Greek sandwich on pita bread, with sliced beef / lamb meat, onions, tomatoes, and sauce. They'll also serve Italian beef sandwiches (vaguely like a French dip sandwich), Italian sausage sandwiches, hamburgers, etc.

Eternalknight said:So it looks like many of these places don't sell deep fried fish? I wonder if that's just a local thing native to Oz, New Zealand and (probably) England? To be specific, the fish sold in these places is usually a piece of flake or hake, dipped in a beer-batter and deep-fried until golden brown.
