NOT the best fish and chips!

Peter Webster 11/05/2007, 2:42 PM

Your feature on the best fish and chips in the area (June issue, pages 24-25) was very interesting and I think I'll have to try a few over the summer.

However, I can't believe Lowestoft didn't appear on your map!

If you really want some decent fish and chips, then you need to visit Billys Plaice in Pakefield Street - I don't care where you come from, there's nothing like them.

Love your magazine - but I really think you need to eat more fish and chips!

Sorry, Mr Webster - you need to come inland, I think. Rembrandts serve the best fish & chips in the world - you'll find them near the Norfolk Showground at Easton. Just look for the water tower and you won't be able to miss it.

The finest fish and chips I've ever had - and I've had them all over the world!

My recommendation is a good old-fashioned plaice and chips with a pint of beer.

Honestly, I've known some good fish & chips in my time - but Rembrandts beat them all hands down. Fins down, even.

I did like Rembrandts Mick, but i found the service a bit slow! I must say it was worth the wait tho, beautiful plaice and the wife enjoyed a jumbo sausage & chips too.

I agree with the pint of beer with my fish, Adnams is my favourite from the feathers at woodbastick.

Have you tried Barretts fish & chip shop in Hellesdon, finest in the city i'd say, although there is something about the chips on Norwich Market on a Saturday lunch time, beautiful.

Best Fish and chips I have ever had come from The Lime Burners near Needham Market. Never found better, eat in or out at te same price, lovely garden to sit, and the beer is great too.

Totally agree with Peter. Pakefield Plaice is definately on top of my list of Fish and Chips, but running close is Maria and Charlie's Fish and Chips on Ormesby Green, they are really bootiful Too!
