Meanwhile, across the ditch the winners of the Great Australian Fish & Chip Awards 2021 MasterFoods™ People’s Choice Awards, organised by Seafood Industry Australia (SIA), have been announced for each state and territory.
Fun fact: Queenslanders cast the most votes out of any state/territory, which meant the winner reeled in the most votes in the entire competition!
And the winners are…
• Queensland - Costa's Seafood Cafe, Capalaba
• New South Wales - Something Seafood, Callala Bay
• Victoria - Trident Fish Bar, Queenscliff
• Tasmania - Fraggles, Invermay
• South Australia - Fish out of water, Hyde Park
• Western Australia - Pinjarra Fish & Chips, Pinjarra
• Northern Territory - Frying Nemo Fish and Chippery, Stuart Park
• Australian Capital Territory - The Fish Shack, Civic
Another bonus fun fact – this is the Australian Capital Territory first appearance in the awards, and The Fish Shack narrowly edged out the competition by 10 votes to claim the top spot.
