Shame that's over 200 miles from here, I love seafood and since it's pretty much as fresh as possible there I bet it's excellent.

This place is very good too. Any closer to you?

Sea food that is fresh, straight to your plate and lots of it. Take your own bottle, bread and any condiments you like.

Just watch the tide, we got stuck for a while leaving.

There are some right mugs around.
I never use one but they put their leaflets through my letterbox.

How droll. Or should that be, how troll?

Not far from where I live. So might give it a try.

Best fish and chips I had were in NZ on Waiheke Island.

I stay away from anything like this in takeaways as its normally frozen and devoid of flavour.

You can beat a decent shellfish platter.

Very nice, very spicy and now I'm dribbling thinking about them.

They were actually better than chilli crabs in Singapore

Did make me think though, are there any other proper weird items on your local takeaways menu?

Garlic crabs

Not a treatment for an STD but actually a dish on one of the local Indian takeaways.

Fried in mashed potatoes & garlic paste, highly spiced

Sounds proper weird so I had to have it as I am having major garlic cravings this evening. Did make me think though, are there any other proper weird items on your local takeaways menu?

Deep fried spicy Hippo?
Sechuan Llama?
Yak Jalfrezi?

Fill yer boots, but keep 'em honest.
