That sounds dangerously close to "sharing".

Only if you choose not to charge them. I'm merely making suggestions here, the business model is entirely up to you

Maybe a barter system... Cakes for Pies.

Even then, it's a tough call.

This is why you need to be in charge. This is miles better than cash for questions.

It does indeed but he may have been through the same process of equipment search before deciding what he bought.

Re: Fish and chip shop equipment

Is the fryer really the key ingredient to the experience though?

Isn't it down to the type of potatoes and oil?

Battered sayvoy sausage and chips, to go along with that fish please!

The potatoes and oil will affect the chips, but my gripe with American "fish and chips" is the batter, as I said recently, I have never found American fish and chips to match even ordinary British fish and chips.

When I passed by Charleston a few weeks ago, The Codfather was closed (all day) on the way south, and closed (at the end of the day, which is only 7pm) on the way back.

Mr Bristol, I'd be happy to review your establishment for BE when you're up and running.

..... I hope that you'll be offering haddock on your menu.

Just no small fish tender sized portions or breadcrumbs
