Be careful if you buy this book as it is sold without the info that you need to make a safe purchase, it has been re-jacketed and retitled as "Lobster Fish and Chips", and is to all intent and purposes, the same book as this, I bought that one on the understanding that it was a second in a series, ( the first book, being titled "Fish and Chips" by the Author, ), I now have two copies of this by differing titles, it may not have been the intent to market this, in this fashion but the result is that it may cost you,for something you already have and it should not have done so, I am not happy with what seems to me to be inappropriate marketing at my expense.
The book itself is probably worth it for the people who have a fondness for this type of "Seaside" food, but it is not Rick Stein, but a fair intro to those who would like to expand on their range of dishes or just gently try a different point of view, it was fair value for money and not too high level, I would recommend it, but be careful that you understand, that the marketing results in a risk that you may buy this title under an assumption that you are buying two different books, i.e. "Lobster Fish and Chips", or "Fish and Chips", they are the same, book so take care that you do not waste your money !!!.
It would have reached four stars otherwise, and the sellers need to address this little matter, or it may lose a good purchasers custom and trust as well as future sales it was at the least, clumsy of them, to do this, it should not happen again

Deceptive Title

Based on the title of this book "Fish & Chips" I expected a variety of recipe's and probably some tips, pointers, and various bits of wisdom and advice. If that's what you are looking for also, you may wish to pass on this book. There's two (maybe three) recipes for Fish & Chips in the entire book (and basic ones at that, probably the same as my Joy of Cooking). The remainder is a variety of seafood and side dishes...fish puffs, fishcakes, fillets, soup/stew/chowder, lobster, octopus, mussel, scampi, baked/grilled/fried/braised, etc, etc, etc...
That said (and pre-conceived expectations aside), if you are looking for an all around seafood cookbook (European flavor, from Russia to Portugal) this could be the book for you! The recipes appear fairly basic and not overly complex, lots of colorful and inspirational pictures, and a wide variety of seafood recipes (huge variety). A separate chapter for potato side dishes, and another chapter on 'Accompaniments'.
BTW, used the Fish & Chips recipe ... yummy!
