Picadilly's Fish N' Chips

A day of wandering ended in a haircut and plate of fish n' chips for J. What a great vacation!

We got the 5 pieces with chips plate for $15. I have to say, the little old man running the place is beyond nice. The Tenderloin neighborhood gets a bad rap, but the small mom and pop restaurants almost always offer service (albeit barebones) with a big smile. The fish was piping hot, moist in the center, crispy, and not overly battered or soggy. Really nice, and much cheaper than any restaurant version.

The chips were less successful. I thought about asking him to throw them back in the fryer for a few minutes, but I didn't know if that would just make things worse since he'd already plated them. Next time I'll just ask for them a little well done and hope that does the trick.
