Depends where you go, just like here in M`sia you can get good nasi lemak and shiet nasi lemak at different price points.

If you go to nasi lemak shops overseas, the price sure more expensive than here with subpar taste, mostly due to sourcing of ingredients and cooking techniques.

The same fish they use is much cheaper in UK than it is in Malaysia. 125g of Cod would cost you about RM32 (frozen), the same weight in UK is 3.75GBP/RM21 (fresh).

FIsh & Co you can choose haddock, red snapper and pollock also.

First of all, the 2 company you mentioned food is "gross" .. I will never go there unless extremely crave for one which usually happened once in 6 mths to 1 yrs ..

Secondly, those "cheap" Dory fish they use as standard food meal I ate at home like COD and Salmon is just unbearable for my taste bud .. worst coming from cheap frozen fish ..

I can't fathom ppl will go for such low quality food TBH but hey .. that IMO anyway ..

Forget to add on they dont even have proper condiment for it .. I'm talking Malt vinegar specifically ..

I only pay rm11, sedap beb
Got fries, salad and lemon squeeze

Yeah agree, I remember being in London during early-80's.

Price was between 2 - 4 quid for fish & chips (wrapped in paper), big portion, will be very full and satisfied.

Can still find something < 10 quid now, but that will be for the fish only. Chips / mash / peas / sauce etc will be charged extra.

Its quite cheap in Europe...but it can be also expensive..I have eaten expensive fish and chips coz the fish are not harvested..It is caught from the sea and the chips are hand made or hand crafted....(not salty or filled with MSG)

the money you pay for the fisherman, vendor and the restaurant staff salary

if you think is expensive then you go pancing and cook yourself, much much cheaper
