        Haha. Went to the Fish and Chips Co at Centurion Lifestyle Centre last night. Ordered 2 pieces of snoek, small hake, small chips, calamari and a russian. It was the best fish and chips Ive ever had. HONESTLY!!! I was so impressed. We got there just before they closed and the owner made all the food himself. Felt kinda guilty keeping them open but boy did we enjoy their food.

        So here is my 3 food revelations for 2012:

        1. Eggs Bennedict from Greenfields in the Mall@Reds. Excellent breakfast!!
        2. Mixed Bruchetta(roast veg, chicken and tzaziki, roast beef and redwine sauce) from Fournos bakery in Centurion Mall. Devine for a quick lunch!!
        3. Fish and chips combo from the Fish and Chips Co. at Centurion Lifestyle Centre. Stunning, unpretentious dinner!!!

        Those 3 meals would be on my list for the perfect day. Only thing that will beat those meals is a good old braai with some Castles!!

          I used to work at an Adega Restaurant some years ago as a manager and remember having a conversation with one of the managers from the Fish and Chips shop next door. He advised me that you must only use "Vanderplank" potatoes and never the standard "Mondial" potatoes. He gave me a demonstration and I was very impressed. If you rub the potatoes' skin with your tumb and the skin comes of easily then its a good quality potato for frying chips. "Mondial" potatoes are good for roasting and mash apparently....
          A very good morning to you Scaffold,

          I actually learnt something very interesting from you about which potatoes to use from chip frying! Going forward, I'll be inspecting all my potatoes before I cut and fry them! I'll tell you something interesting about growing potatoes, they grow like a weed! No matter what you do, you can't seem to stop them from growing. Potatoes hijacted a better part of my garden! It took about 2 years to get rid of them. I prefer to buy my potatoes, not really grow them. My vegetable garden suffered this year. At present the only vegetable I have growing is spinach..

            Howdee Vanash. Dont take my word for the potato advice. Im merely another telephone in the link. But what this guy showed me was impressive to me, however you may aswell say that it was the type of oil he used or the temp of the oil. lol. I find onions to grow like that. My chilli plants died tjop tjop over winter but my onions grew like crazy!!
