Some Good Eats In Nanaimo

Hi all:

For any of you out there in the digital domain who are not familiar with this site, I do like to throw in the odd layman food critique. So, here I go...

A few Sundays ago, I had the pleasure of spending some of my time in downtown Nanaimo. The bunch of us stopped by a couple of cafe's, but the one stop that grabbed our attention was a little place called Pirate Chips. Aside from the place looking a little worse for wear, the food that we had was not too shabby. Since I was a kid, I've grown to dislike Cod fish, but the stuff i got at Pirate Chips was awesome! The chips/fries were really neet too! The breading on the fish is light and tasty and the chips/fries seemed double crunchy - really good all around. To finish our experience, we had a deep fried chocholate bar and some ice cream - great for the sweet tooth in some of us. The prices are reasonable, but the seating arrangements have a little to be desired - there is a small row of seats inside and a couple of spots outside. It would suit a take-out application just fine if it wasn't for the lack of parking. I still give Pirate Chips a good grade.

Cheers,

FMF
