IT’S SOMETHING every British person knows - that eating fish and chips on a beach is one of the great culinary experiences of life.
Now it’s been acknowledged - along with afternoon tea, Ploughman’s lunches and Sunday pub roast - by the Lonely Planet guides as one of the world’s top 500 foodie things to consume on their Ultimate Eatlist.
The Lonely Planet places fish and chips in the UK as number 31 on a list topped by tapas in San Sebastian.
Curry Laksa in Kuala Lumpur is placed at second, with sushi in Tokyo at third.
Ultimate Eatlist reckons its readers should try their fish and chips at a chippy in Stonehaven, northeast Scotland.
Other British foodie bucket list experiences named by Lonely Planet are eating a Scotch egg at Fortnum & Mason and a full English breakfast in London.
