    It's perfectly fair to adjust your price when the cost of fish is unusually high. Put a post-it note on the top of your menu. People will understand.

    I never serve creme dory either.
    My regulars know what they want, so when price halves again soon, my price will still remain the same.
    Swings and roundabouts . In the meantime I've served a shed load of beer, too.

    Went to Zak's today for an early lunch trying it out for the first time and was happy with my fish and chips. Enjoyed everything and very happy we have another food option up here in Valencia. I will try other dishes in due course and happy to return for the fish and chips.

    white marlin. The food is well above average
    with homemade beefburgers and homemade bread baked more than once a day.
    Just before Christmas the fish almost doubled in price, it stayed the same at Zak's Place.
    There is no fish today as there's none in the market.
    How do I know ?
    I own it !

    The fish is definitely not cream dory. I don't know one fish from the other but the fish at Zaks is a dryish, firm white fish. Not bad.

    I agree with you about the website, can suck at times, especially with internet speeds in this country. However, I don't mind wandering the website at all, oh yes it could improve, but there again I'm sure he didn't actually design it himself.
    I order what I want, then sit back & wait for it. I'm retired tho, so I'm not in a rush.

    I've tried mikesimportedbritishgoods, I think it's a very poorly designed website . It slowly leads you from one page to another erratically and when you eventually get to the item you want 99% are out of stock. I neither have the time or the inclination to waste on this.
