San Remo Fisherman's Co-op, Phillip Island
Overview
Fish & chips
Pull over in a coastal town where the local fish and chip shop is a short sandy stumble from the beach and embark on a summertime seaside tradition. Park yourself on the foreshore and torment the local seagulls with your paper-wrapped package of goodness. Perfectly fluffy potato cakes, hot crispy chips, freshly caught local fish, deep-fried so-bad-they're-good dim sims… all bathed in a perfect sea of vinegar and salt. Everything is better in batter, and everything tastes better at the beach. Or at the end of the pier. Or in your car, watching the surfers… you catch our drift.
