How are fish and chips eateries these days? When I grew up in London, they
were somewhat stark - you ordered at a counter, waited for it to be cooked,
then took it home. Classic take-out.
The last time I went home, my cousins decided I should eat fish and chips
(fine with me). I was overcome when I saw the fish and chip place - elegant
restaurant dealing just with fish and chips, with starched white linen
tablecloths, prettily folded pink napkins and water goblets. What has the
world come to. ;-(
