QUOTE(icemanfx @ May 12 2025, 01:20 PM) ts doesn't know price of fish. Yes, I know the price of the fish. But the thing is that I don't see it's worth to pay is because they will cook the fish using oilIf ts couldn't afford better quality fish could choose McDonald's fillet o fish. While for chicken, you can justify paying high price due to the way they cook their chicken. Some of the restaurants cook the chicken using charcoal grill and it taste way way better than you cook it using oil. |

You think fish is cheap?
You think oil is cheap? You think running a deep fryer with proper ventilation and grease trap is cheap? Maybe you should stick to eating fish cake. |

QUOTE(xCM @ May 12 2025, 02:11 PM) Because those fish are flown from UK - Cod and Haddock. Uhhh mate, this is one of the top-rated fish & chips in London, check the prices on the menu .....If you go UK eat fish and chip, it's only 1-2 pounds and they consider as street food. For local fish, opt for Seabass/Barramundi. That is Ikan Siakap. I find this fish also nice to make fish and chip. They are not as flaky as cod but they offer firm fish texture. https://www.opentable.co.uk/the-seashell-of-lisson-grove Traditional Fresh Fish & Chips Cooked in your choice of batter: Traditional batter, Panko, Matzo, or Gluten-free*.

QUOTE(Alternate Gabriel @ May 12 2025, 01:19 PM) Yes exactly. have you tried to compare durian in overseas country vs malaysia already or not?That's why I don't understand why they sell it so expensive here in our country. It's freaking cheap at amdk countries. I can afford to pay expensive food, but I don't see the justification of paying so much for a fish & chip. unless you want ikan kembung or siakap or tilapia fish n chips. apart from the cursed vietnam dory fish. UK / Europe / AMDK dory is not the dory that we eat fyi. This post has been edited by a13solut3: May 12 2025, 02:53 PM |

I dem fussy when eating F&C, almost never had it back home.
Even in Blighty, I choose with care cos there’s a wide spectrum to its taste/quality. My two fav places are in Whitley Bay. Or a non fanciful F&C truck that used to park in our friends’ caravan park in North Yorkshire. Like eating nasi lemak mahhh. When asked where is the best nasi lemak, my answer would be the nondescript stall set up by some makcik in the local neighbourhood. Sometimes bukak, sometimes no bukak one.

Depends on the type of fish. Raw haddock fillet already about 80/kg. Cod will be 100+.
Chicken only 15/kg for drumstick and thigh. Might even be lower sometimes. |

QUOTE(Alternate Gabriel @ May 12 2025, 02:01 PM) Can someone tell me why Fish & Chips food is so expensive compared to you eat chicken as your meal? Check baramudi price .I checked price at Fish & Co and Manhattan Fish Market restaurants; the price of the fish & chips is really expensive. Same goes with other restaurants that sells Fish & Chips. Even when I went to frozen section at grocery stores, I saw some of the frozen fish & chips are quite expensive. The cheapest fish & chip that I saw usually around RM15-RM18, but most of the time the price would be RM28 and above. |
