    Many years ago I went to Tasmania for my honeymoon. One night we went to the local fish and chip shop, and attempted to order grilled fish. We were told (in the most toneless and expressionless way possible) “we only have fried.” So we changed to fried fish. Tried to order a steamed dim sim, were told “we only have fried.” Eventually we managed to work out an acceptable order containing only fried food, including a minimum serve of chips. Which turned out to be a small bucket full. We pretty much gave up at that point, ate our minute serve of chips, and “we only have fried” became an oft-repeated comment whenever we ordered food.

      😂. I knew a fish & chip shop ran by an old guy. He never changed the oil and when people came in and ordered say a hamburger he’d point to the sign and say “NO. JUST. FISH. AND. CHIPS”. Locals knew to stay away. It was basically a front so he can listen to the races on the wireless out the back away from his wife.
