Eating out in London is really quite crazy. S$20+ for fish and chips.

Haha that's quite standard in western countries. One more reason to appreciate our hawkers.

Love that statement! With the rising rentals and fewer Singaporeans wanting to work the hawker trade, not sure how long more we can enjoy hawker prices though.

My experience eating fish and chips in Australia is that it's often quite plain but somehow it was still enjoyable because I was usually eating them near a beach or under great weather. Almost like the ambience enhanced the food but London fish and chips shops don't really have that excuse.

I totally get what you're saying about the ambience and cool weather overseas but for some reason, I still prefer local hawker-style fish and chips.  Maybe it's just the taste that I grew up with ba.

wah i think this is record for number of highly recommended foods in a single episode.
