Comments on: Doyle’s takeaway at Watson’s Bay http://www.notquitenigella.com/2008/03/28/doyles-takeaway-at-watsons-bay/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

They had it on a sign that the "Fish of the day" was and it said Hake so I was disappointed but didn't realise it would be so terrible. I think they usually have flake (shark) which is tastier but some people don't like that idea so perhaps they give us hake instead which tastes like nothing. I think Barramundi is always the best to order if they have it. Hi Maria T-Yes you’re right, it was Hake.

Fish served with fish n chips in sydney seems to be a fish called Hake and I despise it! I'm used to flake which is meatier and doesn't fall apart like hake does. What's a good fish to order that isn't hake? Will definitely try out the calamari soon, definitely fresh when it just melts in your mouth like that!

Especially a rather expensive to live at seaside location at that :lol: We were very close to ordering just a serve of calamari it was so good. Usually the fish is good though so that was a bit disappointing. Pity they don't give samples so you could try and see what was good on the day-although if they did, I think there would probably be a stampede for the calamari :lol: Hi Maria-I always like checking out the prices so I also try and include them if I can and yes they’re pretty reasonable for a seaside location as you said.

I found it all reasonably priced..especially for a seaside establishment! The lobster mornay was a good price! I'd be curious about the seafood chowder and oysters. Next time you could just order calamari if you were especially in the mood for it?! Sorry to hear the fish wasn't too good. I love fried things.. and things in batter and crumbs. Mmm Mmm. :-) Thanks for sharing your fish and chips! I zoomed in on the big menu to look at all of the choices! I found it all reasonably priced..especially for a seaside establishment!
