I used to like the Hole in the wall, i used to ask for a small portion but got a bucketful and if i fancied a better portion i used to go to the one further down the road past the garage but that was 20 or so years ago. I find Reds in the Galleries canny.
Lifting that Redz I thought
 


On inishmore, batter had bits of seaweed in it. Was fab, helped by glorious weather.
Had some nearly as good in Kilkee, on the beach.
 
I have lived in Yorkshire for over 40 years and it took me ages to used to saying, "Once", "Twice" Three times" "Scraps" or "One of each"

Tip - Don't ever ask for a fish-cake in Yorkshire you will not believe what you get.
Flakes of cod sandwiched between two thin slices of potato, battered and fried. Bloody lush....a especially in a bread bun / tea cake / barm cake/ stottie.
 
When I was a kid the best fish and chips or patty and chips with scraps was from Cushlow's in king oswy drive shops. The smell and the taste was fantastic and when I was at school and had the chance to get some dinner money, I always went there and got a bag of chips and a small loaf from the bakers; hollowed it out and filled it with chips, washed down with a nice can of Jusoda.
 
I suppose those shops actually at the seaside or on quaysides will taste better as you are eating outdoors in the sea air , which always helps. You will assume the fish is fresh too.

The portion sizes nowadays are crazy, maybe it’s a scratter thing ?
If you prefer quality over quantity tho, you can get a “small fish and chips“ at Daniela’s which is just about a normal meal size.

The amount of chips you get ladelled on is mental. Like 5 guys. Totally unnecessary
