That "dory" was most likely farmed catfish from Vietnam or similar . Real dory would not be the cheapest fish on the menu . Very often fish and chip shops will list cod , ask them what sort of cod and 9 times out 10 they'll say hoki which is not actually too bad to eat but is no kind of cod .
Exactly. Fish and chips in Australia is hit and miss nowadays because you have these sellers lying about the fish and calling basa by the name of "dory". All the Greeks are dying out/retiring and asians taking over, then the shops go downhill because they can't cook decent fish and chips or make a Greek salad and get their fish fillets in the cheapest form possible, and chips brought in frozen! Its a disgrace. I used to love fish and chips, now i have to look up reviews and ask questions before even considering an order... if this really was basa then you got ripped off at $9.50 as you can get basa, chips, salad and can of drink in sydney for $5-$7
Hey, I was staying on Chevron Island just last week and was contemplating fish & chips from that joint. Glad I gave it a miss, sounds horrible! Cool to see you in that park, went there to give my boys a play!
Oh jeez, when you say you took your boys there for a play I hope you mean your kids and not a trip to the glory hole or a bit of dogging action?. (Sorry in advance, it just sounded funny.)
Oh no! A disappointment here! The Dory just didn't cut it Have to go upmarket next time. Loving your style. Thanks for sharing with us in Cambooya Queensland
Tried some Fried Hake and Chips today and it was quite good, it was at this event, if I do some currency exchange rates calculations, that would only have cost $5,46 and it came with coleslaw and you could put your own sauce and cane with a slice of lemon
In the UK Yorkshire Leeds we have some of the greatest fish and chips in all of Great Britain the chips and the fish are cooked in beef dripping it is to die for
The worst fish n chips I've ever had was in Santa Barbara, CA. Shocking, as it's a beach city. I've had better fish n chips in Boise, ID. I feel your pain, mushy fish is the worst and always has that weird chum taste. Hope next week is better!
Fish and chip joints run the gambit, One usually doesn't know what kind of fish outlets are using despite what its called. Here in North America--USA & Canada there has been a lot of fish mislabelling. Authorities are starting to warn the public. Keep on test testing Greg.
The ‘cash only’ sign turned me off from the get go, would be a walk out for me. How a business can operate in this day and age without offering card facilities is beyond me. Super dodgy.
Alex Chesser There was a Chinese quick service restaurant near me that was cash only, but the portions were HUGE. I didn’t mind stopping at the market next door to get cash.
cas milner roberts That’s fine. No one is suggesting you shouldn’t be able to pay with cash, simply cash shouldn’t be the only option... it’s not 1985 anymore.
Bought in chips and rubbish fish I wonder the google rating's so high? Also 1 difference I've noticed between UK and Austrailian Fish and chip shops is the Austrailian one's seem to be more like a standard Fishmongers
That fish didn't look too good haha.. At least the chips were nice. My partner and I went out for calamari and chips yesterday, and were really disappointed with the calamari. However the chips were good! Seems like a common theme.
LoL, I fell sorry for you... Can you try some places in Alabama where I live? There is a place called "Courtyard Oyster Bar & Grill at 75023 AL; Lincoln AL. 35096
Greg's fish and chip channel ... captivating. Fish and chips constantly. He has such a great personality and has charm but wastes it with throw fish and chip videos up ....
Could you please consider buying a neww micrphone for ASMR, I would love to be able to hear you chew when you do your awesome reviews :) more chew more review
Sorry it had to be us that knocked you out of the Rugby cuz! :-( & apart from looking like a small portion of fish n chips, the chips look up there Grego.
gerg make sure you give em a spray on the ole google reviews cobber, cant have these substandard fish and chip joints, they ruin it for everyone, all we want is great fish and chips at less than 10 bucks!!
The one fish and chip joint who dares to cut their own chips and cook a decent fish will easily rise to the top. Very little competition. Same with pies. Who makes a decent pie anymore?

Jeez, how did we get the stage here in Australia that you're not even getting the fish that's advertised ? Is flake even flake anymore?

@@bigchief2331 the guy who owns the shop is actually a proper Greek! Just don’t blame Asian on everything. Stupid racist
Your on the money "pacific dory" seems to be the new pseudonym for basa .
Love it when Greg's at his most brutally honest!
You’re right, I went into my local fish and chip shop and said Greg sent me. Told me to get out.
😂
Lol 🤣
Sunday morning 🐟 & 🍟 with Greggy.

Sweet bro!
Great review Greg.
Well it looks like we don't have to " Find Dory " Now ....
Is it time for a haircut, Greg-o?
I recommend a place in treetops Burleigh, place is called great Britain fish and chips that place is good, good decent proper feed.
I think he already did that one
loving these fish and chip videos greg. Please keep them going.
Bummer! At least the chips were good. I'd kind of like to try their calamari n' chips. Thanks for taking one for the team Greggo!
yeah calamari is actually better if it's softer
The calamari there is great as is the wearm seafood salad. This review was lame
At 3:16 your expression says it all LOL. I'm sure that bird @ 3:18 would've made short work of it.
You’re a champion mate! Keep up the great vids.
Cheers from the Goldy 👍🏽
gday
Loving the increase in videos Grego. Chevron island fish n ships. I hope it wasn’t too “oily”
good onya mate
They tend to put frozen food into colder oil for it defrosts it and cooks slowly so it doesn’t just cook the outside leaving the inside cold
May not be the best place, but the people running the shop get the seal of approval for having Richmond memorabilia on the walls. Go Tiges!
Wow super
Oh no!
A disappointment here!
The Dory just didn't cut it
Have to go upmarket next time.
Loving your style.
Thanks for sharing with us in Cambooya Queensland
Greg mate i love your videos! (ALWAYS MAKE ME FEEL BETTER) keep it up mate!
thanks :D

That place used to be good years ago. Selling Basa as Dory though is a huge no-no.
The place still is good, this review was lame
That AFL Jersey tho but gotta wait once in awhile to see it in the USA tho.
Poor Grego, that is disappointing. Great review though!
The pic looked good, but that was the batter. Glad it was you that ate it 😜

Great fresh seafood there
Greg you can eat my fish n' chips any day of the week
Hearts are going down
Hope your team are on form today.
@@AFC_MLS22 It's still early doors lol
@@flapperjj95 I hope so mate. Not too confident against this strong Rangers side, but in a one off game anything can happen
What does that even mean ...
Greg off camera most likely fed it to the birds and whipped on in to KFC lol
gotta go to benowa gardens seafood fish n chips, the don't use the crappy veggie oil like the others use..they use the traditional lard
So that’s a nice crispy batter with yoghurt inside 😏😏😏
Greg think ur great..so much fun. .. .love an god bless x
I didnt know greg was so savage
Grease houses are hotbeds of flammable materials. It doesn't take much to learn 'em. One match should do the jobbins. That'll learn 'em.
Love your channel! Living on the Coast too so hope I’ll see you one day
Yes!!!!
My local fish shop, $2 of chips is triple that, and the fish is $7 and double the size
Greggo, hope you gave it to the bin chicken that was hanging around, looks like that was all it was good for, cheers;-))
I'm proud of you
Come try Ocki in Pottsville or The Inki Squid in Terranora or The Stunned Mullet in Cabarita Beach
Again I would have went back and tried to get another one
From all the way here in Iowa, in the US, I sure hope you find the best fish and chips. 🙏🏻
amen
@@GregsKitchen :D
$19
for $20 we get
4 fish
4 hot dogs
4 potato fritters
chips
1.5 litre soft drink
Fish and chip joints run the gambit, One usually doesn't know what kind of fish outlets are using despite what its called.
Here in North America--USA & Canada there has been a lot of fish mislabelling. Authorities are starting to warn the
public. Keep on test testing Greg.
Great review greg
at least it looks like they have a good cooking technique with the crisping method
Went to mermaid waters two fish, was really good thanks for showing it to us :) except no homemade tartar sauce :'(
Mate , theres a few places on the Northside of brissy I could tell you about
Delicious 🤤
Wow. I'm surprised that was so bad. It sure looked damn good when you unwrapped it!
The ‘cash only’ sign turned me off from the get go, would be a walk out for me.
How a business can operate in this day and age without offering card facilities is beyond me. Super dodgy.
You can under pay the staff with cash.
And avoid tax...

crush Not sure about the UK, but this definitely is not the norm in Australia.
Watch out for the bin chickens grego !!
Bought in chips and rubbish fish I wonder the google rating's so high? Also 1 difference I've noticed between UK and Austrailian Fish and chip shops is the Austrailian one's seem to be more like a standard Fishmongers
Should try out selfish fish and chips at Coolangatta outside the strand.
What I let down it looked really good 🐟🍟
Greg will you do Fish and Chip shop reviews outside of the Gold Coast?
yes, i have already
Peters fish market on SeaWorld dr main beach..... Trust me Grego you won't be disappointed
He already went there, and he was disappointed 😂
tell em greg sent you! he wont have a clue hahahaha
Impossible to find fish and chips shops in NYC..you used to...it's all about Starbucks and McDonald's here..
Hit the foodtrucks!
does australia have an amish paradise as well?
Do they not give Tarter sauce with the fish n chips in New Zeland?
Sooner or later Greg is gonna find the best fish and chips at Aldi 😂😂😂
Have you tried Oceanmaster fish n chips?
You gotta try Rio Vista seafoods 👍
A lot of fish and chip shops call basa (Mekong river catfish) "pacific dory". It's really too mushy and not firm enough to use in fish and chips.
Had a really muddy smell too. If that makes any sense 😂
Does the best fish and chip shop get a prize, a greggo t shirt,,or a trophy with Greggo,s picture on it?
It gets a video saying it's good
That fish didn't look too good haha.. At least the chips were nice. My partner and I went out for calamari and chips yesterday, and were really disappointed with the calamari. However the chips were good! Seems like a common theme.
GregO MateO you got it wrong. Dory fish is meant to be soft and delicate, not a firm fish 😎
This was not soft and delicate, it was gellatin like 😂
Oh okay. Sorry lol
Greg can u do a red rooster fish n chips review?
texture counts a lot i see! interesting !
LoL, I fell sorry for you... Can you try some places in Alabama where I live? There is a place called "Courtyard Oyster Bar & Grill at 75023 AL; Lincoln AL. 35096
Mate, can you do the rounds in Brisbane.
When you frie chips I less hot oil its called blanching
Greg's fish and chip channel ... captivating. Fish and chips constantly. He has such a great personality and has charm but wastes it with throw fish and chip videos up ....
Bakers plain flour gives it that taste in the batter.
Looked pretty ordinary alright. The price is not bad but it was probably half the quantity of your last F&Cs.
Again no Plasttic i Love it
The best fish and chips grego his in ya kitchen mate make it your self and give it a rating out of 10 and be honest mines a good 7
Could you please consider buying a neww micrphone for ASMR, I would love to be able to hear you chew when you do your awesome reviews :) more chew more review

There’s a good chippy just across the road from me Grego and worth a try??? Snappers Hope Island Fish Bar. Let us know how you go! :-)
That fish looked horrible on camera even mate. I enjoy these fish n chip reviews maybe you can come to Melbourne and dova series.
Greggo, we should collab soon!
You don't appear to have much to bring to the party...
@@vtbn53 i will edit Big Dog Greggo's videos
You need to re visit shop to get snapper
don't they sell flake (shark)?
Sorry it had to be us that knocked you out of the Rugby cuz! :-( & apart from looking like a small portion of fish n chips, the chips look up there Grego.

I've never seen fish being double-fried!
Give hangi pit fish and chips next to dreamworld
Please review fish monger Burleigh heads
I bet that is basa and not real dory. It's quite commonly mislabeled in Australia.
What's that old saying? You have to kiss many frog's before you find your prince.
Nah Greg you should try Watson’s bay fish and chips they ones are lit
DNA test that fish!
💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
The fish looked very ordinary, The bin chicken would like it though haha, When are you doing another friday night live thing?
Dory? Don't think so. Think he's having a lend of ya.
You need to get a wretching thing to use in videos like this! 😂😂😂
You will never find the best fish n chips if you always go for the cheap option😂
