The Best Fish & Chips

There are two famous restaurants proclaiming to be the best fish & chips in Perth, well, we have tried both of them:

1. Cicerello's - WA No. 1 Fish & Chips


Clam Chowder


Traditional Fish & Chips






Fresh Oysters

Kilpatrick Oysters

Cakes

Eclair


2. Kaili's - Voted the best fish & chips

They have two counters - one serving the fresh and bbq seafood whilst the other served fry seafood.



Fresh and Seafood BBQ counter


We ordered the Kailis Seafood Platter set, consisting of 2 fish fillet, 4 prawn cutlets, 4 squid rings, 4 scallops, chilli mussels with chips & salad.


My Ramblings...

I would personally prefer Kailis as their batter is thin and less oily.

The Queen & Mangosteen

Went to The Queen & Mangosteen for tea after having dinner at Akashi.

We ordered Fried Chicken Wings with Hoi Sin sauce and White Chocolate with Cassis Cake with Triple Chocolate Ice-cream and mixed berry sauce.







Paired with a nice cup of coffee..
