RAVE - Fish

What, Fish in general? No, the Bay Area's favorite fish 'n chip shop, which happens to be the other side of the Golden Gate Bridge, in Sausalito.

Today was a particularly bad day to make the hop, as it's Labor Day weekend, AND it turned out to be the weekend of the Sausalito Art Festival. Therefore it took over an hour to do make a trip that should have taken 15 or 20 minutes.

Fish is a piece of work though - fish 'n chips at steak 'n frites prices, never enough tables, long lines, cash only - they do everything they can to keep customers away.

But once you're there, sitting in the sun gazing into the marina, with mouthfuls of the crispest battered fish, arguably the best fries in or near San Francisco, you can see why it draws local and tourist alike.

And of you're wondering whether a fish 'n chip place deserves a review, glowing or otherwise, you need to be there on a day like today.
