It always fascinates me when I think about how far apart the cuisines of France and Britain are. One one side you have Foie Gras, Truffles and Pressed Duck and on the other side of the channel the national dish is Fish n Chips and Meat Pies.

Many would not think of Fish and Chips as fine dining, but it is the kind of food that you sometimes just crave to eat. Nowadays you can find Fish n Chips in almost every corner of Singapore and there are many different variations of it. The fish can be coated with bread crumbs, thin and crisp batter, tempura or even Hainanese pounded cream cracker batter.



Personally, I still like it with the original beer batter and you can find this over at the Cricket Club, but the problem is that it is only available to members and their guests only. Thankfully, Molly Malone's also makes quite a mean Beer Batter Fish n Chips which is available to plebians like myself.
