Mmmmm, mushy peas (and curry sauce!) Haven't been home for ages and won't be for a few years :( Rock n Sole Plaice at DIP isn't a bad chippy but they don't do proper fishcakes either ie not them rissole malarkeys. I hate mushy peas YUK Rock and Sole used to be good on Al Wasl but I don't think they can ever get the chips right here and their curry sauce was awful I make my own curry sauce with Jamie Olivers recipe and it tastes just like the chippy one at home How can you hate mushy peas ;) Coming from a seaside town with one of the best fish and chip shops ever, we've tried all over Dubai and nothing is ever the same twice. Hence cook my own :) Whitby especially :) Colmans of South Shields :biggrin:

More miss than hit :( I've decided to just buy Youngs frozen fish, make my own chips and a tin of Batchelors Chip Shop Mushy Peas :)

Sorry to hijack but I've just been on their website and seen that they're now doing risotto. Risotto?!!! Mind you, when they sell scraps as a starter and charge 5dhs for em who knows what's next. Deep fried Foie Gras? They can be hit and miss. I have had some great fish and chips from them and then some awful chewy fatty fish if that makes sense I am off home next week and first stop is the chippy!!!

TIA They only have the fish below, however you would have to find out where they get it from and is the fishery sustainable? which may be a pain Cod Hammour Hake Cod
