IG: 2Fish1Chip Order: Fish & Chips, Corn Fritter, Hotdog. Cost: $19.20 Fish (Warehou) had a good golden sheen and a nice crunchy bite to it. Didn’t hold too much oil which is always good. Possibly allowing it to hang sufficiently before packing it up. The flesh was white and fresh to the bite. Of note was a distinct moisture to the fillet which only made the texture super flaky. The level of flakiness was more than I would expect from Warehou. It felt like it was a whole lot of smaller piece blended together to make a fillet. The Homemade (hand cut) chips were beautiful! Generous in portion with classic contrasting textures of the crunchy exterior and pillowy inside. CCT approved! The corn fritter from here follows the beautiful herb infused mashed potato template which is gold! The let down here was that the outside was cooked a tad longer which meant the overly crunchy skin over powered the contents. That level of being cooked would suit a thicker fritter. The thickness allows time for you to enjoy the crunch then the lovely corn and mash that lies beneath. I didn’t notice it till later, but they offer a larger sized fillet which peaked my interest. At twice the price of a normal fillet, it would be worth a crack I guess. Overall pretty decent goods from the peeps at Wadestown Seafoods! Thanks team.
