Hello Hello Hello!!! How do you spend the longest day of the year? I collected my first ever medal at 5k vitality RUN Hackney, yey! Well done me! I am going to reward myself with cold pints and fish and chips at Clissold Arms. I deserve it!!
Then, slight disappointment came. My 2nd pint was nothing like the first one. Completely FLAT…. after one small sip, I had to ask to re-do the pint, and they did, it was perfect again. Though ? in consistency, the important element.
Then, the next disappointment!!! NO FISH AND CHIPS on the menu. Of course, I asked. They came up with 2 suggestions.
1. Make fish and chips from kids menu to adult portion -> Not keen on this as it could be fish fingers!
2. Seabass or salmon WITHOUT batter with chips -> Obviously it is not the same.
Reading the menu, I gathered, here is one of those “gastro pub” stating that “we are unique, too posh for fish and chips”. I would like to request to all pub chefs. Fish and chips is a simple dish, this is why your skills are tested. Do take up the challenge!!!! You are never too posh for fish and chips, I reassure you all!!!
I am not in hurry to go back here anytime soon. My journey of fish and chips critic continues. Good night!
@fishchipscritic Thanks for feedback. We do actually do fish & chips at lunchtime so please do come back soon (we’re not too posh for f&c!)
OK, Will do!!!!
