The Fish House - Stanley Park, Vancouver

Ahoy,

This elegant presentation of fish and chips was when I indulged in the fine cuisine at The Fish House located in Stanley Park, Vancouver.

The fish: The Haddock fish offered a nice alternative to the typical cod and halibut options most places have. It had a light crispy beer batter which did not overpower, so as to allow the natural flavour of the fish to be experienced. - 8/10

The chips: They were thick, and too soggy for my liking. One might suggest the moist texture would compliment the the crisp fish, however, this was not the case. -  5/10

The venue/presentation: Located on the end of beautiful Stanley Park, Vancouver, The Fish House offers a beautiful setting for a classy place to sit down and have fish and chips. The presentation was clean and simple as viewed above, however sometimes, fish and chips can be more appreciated when wrapped around in the local newspaper. - 8/10

The price: $18 on the lunch menu.

The overall verdict: 7/10 - For the expensive price, I would hope to see an improvement in the quality of the chips. It was nice to see Haddock as the staple fish which offers a nice alternative with a crisp beer batter.
