JUST one Scottish chippy has been included in an official selection of the top 10 best fish and chip restaurants in the UK.
Catch on Glasgow's Gibson Street is the only sit-in restaurant in Scotland to make the list, which was curated by industry experts Fry Magazine.
To earn their place, Catch impressed a mystery diner who graded the restaurant on everything from the thickness of batter to the crispiness of chips.
The diner said: “We had the regular size battered Haddock (they did not have any cod on the menu).
"I can honestly say this is the best battered fish I have ever eaten.
"The batter was light, it was not greasy in any way. The fish was perfectly seasoned. This is some seriously amazing fish.
"The king prawn taco was incredible, the prawns were cooked to perfection, the sauce was so good with the perfect level of spice.”
Proud to have been selected for the list, owner Giancarlo Celino said: "What an honour it is to make the Top 10 Best Fish and Chip restaurants in the UK, and the only one in Scotland.
"Without the people we are nothing, so I am forever grateful to my team."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
