Fish and chips isn't just to be paired with tartar sauce and vinegar; in fact, there's no reason crispy, delicate fish needs to be limited to one set of flavors. We want all the flavors; this is America! Freedom of flavor is where we're at here, with delicious and feisty Cajun flavors bringing fish and chips to the bayou. And instead of ketchup for those taters, try magnificent remoulade, complex and inviting. With all the flavor choices we have, you'll be glad you choose the flavors in this meal!
