The taste of crisp, crunchy battered fish seems so enticing to some people that they have almost made fish and chips their staple food. There is no denying that eating fish and chips is an iconic experience in Australia. In fact, you can find a
fish and chip shop in almost every corner and possibly, it is more popular than a pie. Apart from being as an essential takeaway item, fish and chips are also offered in various hotels, bistros, and restaurants.

Let’s have a look at the reasons why fish and chips have gained increasing popularity:
The perfect pairing
Spaghetti and meatballs, peanut butter and jam and fish and chips are a great pair. Some pairs are so classic that even thought about separating them would be blasphemous. Of course, there is no problem with addition as you can have a side salad or vegetables with the fish and chips, but the classic combo of potato chips and seafood in Sandgate must be inseparable.
The batter
One of the major attractions of eating fish and chips is the crunch when you bite into your battered fillet. A well-seasoned and well-coated fish is the secret of a delicious serving of fish and chips. In fact, many fish and chips lovers judge their dish based on the quality of the casing.
There are chips
Some people believe that they need to avoid potatoes at any cost for their low-carb revolution. However, all comfort eaters consider potato in their staple diet. Potatoes become more enticing when they are served in fish and chips. Perfectly soft on the inside and slightly crisp on the outside – potato chips are appropriately equipped to satisfy all taste buds.
The greasy feeling
Here is an honest confession that you eat most of your comfort food with your hands – from burgers, pizzas to chips from the packet. Now, when you use your hands when eating fish and chips, you get some residue on your fingers which serve as a memory of your meal.
Mood booster
It is proven that fish and chips provide a morale boost to food lovers as it lifts their spirits. In fact, during the First World War, the British soldiers were so satisfyingly well fed with fish and chips that helped them to get an advantage in the war.
