I have been toying about making fish and chips for dinner so many times but my hubby seems not around most of the time for dinner. Also, have not done any cooking or frying with beer but am going to not only make fish and chips but also like this recipe of yours with the beer. Heard that the beer contributes to the crispy and puffy crispy later on top. Nice and with some tartar sauce, all the more.
Your fish and chips look perfect!

Congrats on the domain name, the fish looks so crispy!
Our fave, fish and chips! This is the usual order whenever our family are in the music bar we love to hang-out to. Pero your fish looks more crispy and tastier. Made me curious, kung ano lasa ng fish na may beer. Will sure try this! Tnx anf TC!
This is my favorite "bar" food. I like the beer batter too. Great stuff Raymund! I'd love to hang out in your kitchen sometime. (I know my kids would too - so many of your recipes are right up their alley!)
Good idea for tomorrows dinner! I have tilapia, it should work..
With this beer butter back in Greece we make fried zucchinis and fried zucchini flowers..
Have a nice day!

A COMFORT classic! I *miss* the NW-style fish-and-chips places (Spud, Ivar's, etc) since we moved to Texas from Washington state. Maybe I'll have to try your yummy looking pub style ones!
