I took this picture near the sea in Paignton, during my time in Devon. It was the last time I had fish and chips. I had wanted to have fish and chips by the sea for ages and thought a town by the sea Devon was the ideal place for it. I was hungry so I enjoyed the food enough, as I always do when I eat fish and chips, that said it was overall a disappointing experience. The fish had a strange aftertaste of curry and Paignton may have been the most vulgar town I have ever seen. I guess this is what happens when you are looking forward too much for an experience: it ends up being underwhelming. And I had far better fish and chips, even though I had them far from the sea.
But anyway, it struck me tonight that this was the last time I had fish and chips. In the middle of August! And I am craving them again. It is Friday, so it would be a perfect evening for this kind of dinner, or at least customary. But I am trying to fight the craving. Soon it will be time for eating excesses, so I am trying to eat healthy, or at least not too much and too fatty food. All the same, I am craving fish and chips.

I also could enjoy a meal of fish and chips tonight!:-)
you made me so hungry! Its so hard to get real good fish and chips here, there was one shop that did them but she closed, this looks delicious!
I get that craving from time to time, but we don't have any pubs that serve it over here. Only ever saw it, completely over-priced, at a posh restaurant. Quite the joke for someone who has lived in England.
i live in the city of fish and chips. the killer is when they fry everything in old oil. that always does it in!
I am not surprised this post got so popular. Thank you all for commenting.
