10 min 18 sec0

Maple-san shares lighthearted discoveries from daily life in Melbourne, Australia. In this episode, she discusses the surprising nuances of the beloved dish, "Fish & Chips," and shares an experience from a popular shop she found in the city.

Fish & Chips seem to be a bit different between the UK and Australia.

In the traditional British style, it is common to eat fried white fish with malt vinegar. On the other hand, in Australia, it is standard to serve it with lemon or tartar sauce. From the types of fish used to the different names for potatoes, the depth of this familiar gourmet food is truly fascinating.

I finally visited that popular shop where there is always a line.

While walking around the city, I stumbled upon a Fish & Chips shop with a never-ending queue. After being curious for a while, I finally decided to go in one weekend. The shop was packed, and the vibrant atmosphere left quite an impression. What was the unexpected reaction from the locals that Maple-san witnessed there?

High expectations for an "authentic taste" that even people from the UK give their seal of approval.

While carrying the takeout, a woman I shared an elevator with struck up a conversation. She happened to be from the UK and praised the shop's food as "nostalgic." There was a certain common thread to the flavor that someone who knows the real deal would recognize. Check out the full episode to hear all the details.
