He wants traditional 'English fish, chips and mushy peas - with pickles? And, fish and chips are supposed to be eaten when hot/warm! This guy is doing so much talking, his plate must have been stone cold! Baked beans goes nice with fish and chips - so does a tin of Aldi's chopped tomatoes with herbs - but pickles? 'God Bless America' with hand on chest, I hear you say. I say 'God save the UK! ' for having to put up with all these tourists desecrating our time honoured British delight - the humble Fish 'n chips! Pickles indeed! Mm!

Fish n chips is my favorite comfort food. I like any whitefish, but haddock has a little more ocean flavor that you may or may not like. I want a fish that tastes like something. Cod is the lite beer of fish. I like being on the beach and enjoying the ocean, but that's just me. I tend to go with a plastic fork puncture of the crust and an overall malt vinegar drizzle in favor of any dipping sauces. The acid fills in the gaps for me. Mushy peas are delicious, and I use the chips as a scoop with the peas as a condiment. I hate pickles.

Well, what (as an Englishman) did I make of that? Strange sense of humour, vinegar on his arm? 'Sorry but I'm a ketchup kind if man', there is a bottle in the condiment box on the table? Would I buy fish and chips in overpriced Notting Hill, served and cooked by a foreigner, well no actually, I would go to a fish and chip shop that serves take away, and eat it out of the bag with my fingers, though it would cost more than a dime!

french fries and chips are 2 totally different seperate things. although they are made similar from the same ingedients, fries are cut thin cut and fried quickly to a crunchy bite, where as chips are thick cut, cooked on a lower heat (more of a boiling slower frying) giving them a lighter fluffy inside, and a softer crisp outside. fries and chips have totally different tastes.

Sacrilege ketchup with fish & chips, LOL. I like it too. Can't stand mushy peas. Tartar sauce is ok but def malt vinegar & salt on my chips. FYI Europe uses mayonnaise. Need it all wrapped in paper too. Now I know what I'm getting for my tea today. Curry chip is alright too, one of the locals sells a shed load of chips with black bean sauce.

Most of us don't really get mushy peas all the time. Maybe a family meal and two pots of mushy peas would go between 5 people. There really is no traditional way. Salt and vinegar but beyond that there is no rules. But I must say my Nan has brown sauce with hers and that is not ok.

Well done a lot of these sort of video's don't show Americans buying Gerkins pickled onions and pickled eggs they are very common in British fish and chip shops. Have a battered sausage and a savaloy next time though. They are kind of traditional in a British chippy also.

You should try Yorkshire fish and chips. Haddock is the standard fish, and the fish and chips are fried in beef dripping, which gives a crispier texture and better flavour. Also, use malt vinegar, not lemon juice, on both fish and chips. Perfect!

Went there while on a People to People Ambassador trip back in 2014. The food in general is too bland. Im Caribbean, so what my taste buds are typically used to is absolute deliciousness and this place wasnt it. But hey, thats just my experience

Proper fish and chips are fried in beef dripping fat not veg oil or peanut oil. Traditionally English owned chippies fry in beef fat whilst greek and italian owned places fry in veg oil and Chinese owned chippies fry in peanut oil.
