Awesome Chippy and Chinese Takeaway
Good Fish and Chip shops are thin on the ground. I don't want to eat some grease-caked gunge masquerading as the national dish. I want to feel patriotic and proud and enjoy my unhealthy grub to the maximum. At Pang's they know how to knock up good old British fare. The secret is the fish is fresh and not frozen. And these guys know how to cook it to perfection. Often they are cooking it up just as you arrive. To top it off they are all warm and fun. The service is great, out-going and friendly. That counts for a lot. The Pangs Chinese takeaway next door is also good. Recommended dishes are Kung-Po prawns, should be called Kung Pow prawns, they are damn hot but worth it! Sweet and Sour Fish Hong Kong Style is also excellent with a whole heap of fresh fish cooked in batter smothered with a spicy home-made sauce. Another goodie is the special fried rice - practically a meal in itself. Although the Chinese takeaway is closed on Sunday - if you really need a chinese meal and fast. You can phone orders in an collect them from the chip shop. Hey it doesn't get any better than that.
