On a tip from a cabby, Seashell on Lisson Grove is very good indeed. When you go you'll find that it's the place with a flock of black cabs rammed outside as any cabby in London, that finds himself in the area after dropping off a fare, will be dining there. I used to live very close by and sadly after I moved to Guildford a Guildford cabby told me about it. Shame, but I go there whenever I'm in the area. Let alone a "London Chip Shop", I'd rate this up there with some of the best in the country... and I haven't drunk the whole bottle of wine yet! > -----Original Message----- > From: Billy Abbott [mailto:billy@xxxxxxx.xxx.xx] > Sent: 11 August 2006 17:24 > To: london.food > Subject: [london.food] Chippies > > > I have a friend visiting from the US soon and in standard tourist mode he > asked me "Where's the best fish and chip shop in London".
