Entree Kibbles: The Scarborough Fish & Chips Restaurant - Near Tanjung Rhu Beach @ Langkawi [Malaysia] #scarboroughlangkawi

It's easy to miss the Scarborough Fish & Chips restaurant although the road was quiet and there's hardly any building around. Maybe it's because there's nothing exceptionally iconic about the restaurant except for the helm which blends in rather well with the surrounding.

Anyway, don't expect air-conditioning! However, it didn't feel hot as we were blessed with a relatively nice sea breeze. It's that kind of environment where you could easily doze off.

Not to forget the sights of white, sandy beach, rolling waves and the bluish-greenish sea in front of us. Totally therapeutic except for one eyesore.

The smoking factory on the left which was no stranger to us as we did bypass it during our Langkawi Mangrove Tour, at Pulau Dangli, earlier that morning .

Prefer to dine right under the sun, with the soft sand running between your toes? Alfresco seating was available but you wouldn't see me there as i have that innate fear of passing birds who decide to take a dump while flying right above you!

Whatever the case, we got a table under shelter and since the restaurant is known for its fish and chips (with certificate of excellence from TripAdvisor); i think it's quite a clear cut decision of the item we would be ordering.

Deep Fried Dory - we did have other options like red snapper, barramundi, mackerel, halibut, salmon and it might appear strange we would aim for the common dory. It's the money that counts as the above was the cheapest at RM 26.00.

The chunky fries were delightful to have with a nice, thin crisp that were addictive even though they were also super filling to the tummy; i even had to resort to stealing a few from the plates of the fellow travel mates! Now on the fish.

Batter wasn't the crunchy, crispy type i usually like and i was on the verge of condemning it until my teeth sank into the thick piece of dory within; super moist and tasty! Maybe i should go for the pan-fried version in the future!
