Fish & Chip Reviews

Studio 6, London, SE1 9PP, 4 April 2014

Hello Friday! love you, always comes without fail!   Let’s celebrate with cheeky pints!

Yey, my Amstel but sorry mate, not quite cold enough to crunch my thirst,  6/10.  I have to be cruel when I come to scoring.

Ah, how did I miss this!!!!  After spending £4 on a pint of Amstel,

Ohhh... I must.... however, this pint was again, not quite cold enough. 6/10

Ah, Nigel Farage, may I ask… Can I stay in the UK? I am a legal immigrant who is keen to adapt and integrate myself into British culture (i.e., Binge drink followed by fish and chips).

Oh, menu reads well with simple language (non of line caught blah blah blah) fish and chips on top like a headline! Hooray!  and wow £9.95! on this location 1 minutes from Thames.  Just for this pricing 10/10.

Generous portion, sorry for the bad photo, pea is hiding.

1. Fish : 8/10.  Hot crunchy batter with firm fish, cannot find fault to be honest.  At the same time I cannot give 10/10, because if I did, it means this is the best of the best, which I is not quite true!
2. Chips : 7/10.  I like it and well executed but they were not conventional chips, they were french fries .
3. Peas:  5/10.  This was taste exactly same as last week at The Mill Inn.  Also, strangely, both called pea puree.  It is nice in their own right but something not quite right!

Overall 8/10, good effort and great pricing, will be back Studio 6, probably soon!

Slight sideways again….

Love fish and chips but difficult to eat 2 days in a row.  But I can do that with whitebait.  This was at Ye Olde Cross Keys, Aldeburgh, Suffolk IP15 5BN.  Such a great British food.  I cannot be a whitebait critic, they are not as commonly served.  What a shame!  But I am committed to be fun of you whitebait!  (I prefer simple deep fried with a bit of flour rather than breaded).

  1. I concur. The fish and batter were exceedingly good, but the chips were more French fries and the (white) wine was also less than icy. Great value for money overall though!

    PS I’m a big fan of (floured & fried) whitebait too – very delicious as a starter with fresh lemon and thinly sliced brown bread and butter – not featured nearly enough on pub menus which is a pity as its a very cheap (& sustainable) dish.

    Keep up the blog Mina – loving your work! xxx

    1. Yey! Studio6 is a funky place, next time we will be testing consistency!
