It had been a few sunny days. Apple Juice and I had been stuck with indoor activities for some time so we will take the opportunity and go out for some sunshine. Ice-cream of course is a big hit during the sunny days. No matter if it is the normal ice-cream or the Italian gelato shop, they are packed with people. But what interested me this time is the fish and chips stores. There were about 30% of the restaurants are specialized in fish and chips. And oddly enough, all of them (no matter if they are eat-in or take outs) do have decent # of customers in them.

I have been avoiding deep fried food during the hot summer days. Light, comfort food is more of my cup of tea. Since I saw so many people were eating it this time, I would give it a try. Took us like 15 mins in total to get our 4-pieces order, 2 each, into our hands. As usual, I start eating my dinner like a vulture. At first, the hot, batter really didnt’ interest me. Putting that piece of hot fish into my mouth in this hot weather makes me even more hot. But as it starts cool down a bit, I started to like this “grease”. First, fish is comfortable. Not as heavy as patty or sausage. Then with the light thin batter, it was really crispy. So I don’ feel the grease that I would expect from deep fried food. The fries didn’t interest me since it is very heavy. If they could have it done with more crispy touch to its skin, it would be more appeal to me. But anyhow, with the hot food + cold drink combination, this is definitely good choice in the summer.
