Salmon avocado at Beppe's Cafe

Beppe's, a lovely old caff in Farringdon.I have always wanted to visit this cafe so finally did when I was in the area.
The decor takes you back in time and there are many old money paper notes at the back.
I had the salmon, avocado with black pudding which turned out really nice especially the salmon.
The avocado was more like guacamole as it was a tad spicy but went well with the salmon and black pudding.
I liked the way, they garnished it with their unique side which makes them different.
























Pacific Fish Bar, Custom House

The fish and chips serve at this place were the greasy type of fish and chips.
Chips were ready when ordered so was the fish.
Discovered Pacific Fish Bar while I was in the area and I seriously had to try it because it has been there for decades from the decor tell tale signs.
The cod was definitely memorable as it was super soft and silky like garoupa where the fish flakes literally melt like fibres.
Nevertheless tasty because the cod still had the skin attached which gives it flavour.
Although the chips were a little greasy, it held the salt and vinegar well.
Will be back for more.

Fish with skin at Anerley Chippy

Another one tried, sadly under scaffolding hence the difficult picture.
Located near the overground station, it is ideal for trying when there are rail strikes.
I had the chips with haddock because it was the only fish with skin.
People these days do not like fish with skin so I am guessing the cod is a popular choice hence it is skinless where the haddock isn't as popular so they left the skin on.
As expected, the fish was tasty and chips were good.
It was takeaway so cant rate how good they are without eating at the spot because the chips have endured at least a few minutes in an enclosed environment hence they stick together.
Also the batter stuck to the box but then I would be worried if it didn't stick as it would be overdone.
In terms of greasiness and being overdone, both were perfectly good.







Golden Fish and Chips, Norwood Junction

Just another chippy I thought but when I saw the menu with fish cutlet balls and mutton rolls, I figured it was a Sri Lankan restaurant.
Anyway, I had fish and chips, the chips were definitely made to order and to my liking.
The fish was weird probably because of the orange looking batter which I suppose matches the name of the restaurant ie Golden.
Somehow the fish was just tasteless and skinless while the batter was wrong perhaps too smooth and uniform.
Overall, I just recommend the chips.











Gerry's hot subs at Exmouth market

Gerry's hot subs is coming to Exmouth Market and I simply can't wait.
At a recent visit, I went past Gerry's and fell in love with the American look of the place.
I took a peek and I love the way they have the hot dog vending machines just like the Netherlands and they also serve my favourite poutine with cheese curds according to their online menu.
