Fish and chips for lunch on a Tuesday afternoon at Philip Island, while the rest of Melbourne celebrated the race that stops the nation - Melbourne Cup.

This version of fish and chips was from Harry's Bar at the Esplanade, Philip Island. Would not particularly rave about the food, because in this restaurant you pay more for the view. Next time, the 'serious wine list' may have to be taken to the test.
