Clancy's Fish Pub

My dear friend Kenny Heng suggested that this restaurant, Clancy's Fish Pub, was the best fish and chips he has ever consumed. After a number of frustrating failing attempts at finding the pub we eventually got there. It's actually not that hard to find but due to circumstances it took us awhile (due to Kenny's bad directions of course).

Battered Whiting and Chips

The place basically looked like the typical pub from the outside with groups of blokes drinking beer under the veranda but once i got inside it looked quite quirky and old school with 70's style furniture. I kinda felt embarrassed/noobed when i told the waiter "table for two please" and he said "oh you just order your food here and drinks there and we'll get it to you mate" it was a pub after all.

Even though the price is much dearer than normal fish & chips, it only took seven minutes for the food to be served. The fish looked ultra crispy and the chips came out in a decorative newspaper cone. Some of the chips were slightly undercooked since they were abit hard and didn't have the usual fluffiness in the middle. The fish was definitely different to what i have tried before one reason being that it was undercooked! However after pointing this out to the waitress, she retrieved a new piece of fish that was ultra crispy, much more crispier then usual fish and chips. While being crispy on the outside the inside was quite moist and delicate.

Ready to honour my fish with my mouth

Overall the best fish and chips that has caressed my palate thus far.
