One of the best fish and chippie restaurant in Perth is Cicerellos which sits on the fishing pier in Fremantle. The place is huge and can’t be missed if you’re walking across from the city centre to the harbour.

Don’t expect to be served at this restaurant, think of it more of a glorified canteen just to keep your expectations in check. When you enter the place, your eyes are immediately drawn to the huge aquarium which walls the path to the ordering counter.

You order your food from the counter, pick up a electronic tag, and find yourself a seat at the many tables inside and outside the restaurant. It’s quite noisy indoors, so if you want a bit more peace, quiet and sunshine, eat alfresco. But just be ready to guard your food from the hungry Sea Gulls perched on the fence.

When your electronic tag starts buzzin, it means your food is ready for collection from the counter

The two items always ordered are:

• Traditional fish and chips (premium NZ Hoki) – A$12.60
• Fresh Chilli Mussels – A$22.00

Their fish & chips are wrapped in paper. Salt and vinegar available at the counter. Only thing which annoys me: they charge you for tiny packets of tartar sauce. Come on you can’t have fish without tartar!

I like the fact that the Little Creatures micro-brewery is just down the road too! THAT place has just expanded like crazy! Definitely one of the sexiest looking micro-breweries I’ve ever come across.

Enjoyed the little sense of humour on the signs they placed around Cicerellos. I’m sure you can guess what the words abbreviated are.
