Fish and Chips

Anchor and Hope is located in an old mechanics shop in San Fran.(very like most of the restaurants in Palermo Soho Buenos Aires)
The space is actually very cool.
The menu was supposed to be an Oyster and Stout happy hour as enjoyed by the good ole Irish folks at home on the old sod. With these prices however I do not think that many of them would be too happy.
Sat at the bar which gave me a good view of the oysters being prepared.
Food was good.
Fish and chips anyone.
Salmon.
No Chimay but this stuff was very good.

The IVY London

In London this restaurant is an institution.Frequented by the artsy fartsy set it is a place to see and be seen.
Located just off the Covent Garden area I recommend that you make a reservation well in advance in order to get in.
I would descibe the place as a gastro pub which seems to be the rage in London at the moment.I had fish and chips and mushy peas.
They were ok but the tomato sauce(ketchup) was excellent.
Overall I really do not know what the big deal is about this place but at least I can say I have been.
