Different tastes... as a Brit if I went to a chippy and the chips weren't a bit stodgy I would send them back. I ordered chips, not fries :-) I do agree with you a bit on the fish though, as I understand a lot of this is to do with fishing quotas which push the prices up so most places use cheaper fish. Ifou go to a good chippy in a seaside town, and specifically order cod or hadock, then you can get something good. As others have said the quality of restaurants really vary, even in the same town.
