Great Wall Takeaway is a fish and chips shop on Randwick Road in Moera, Lower Hutt, currently rated 3.6 on Google.
Good fish and chips come down to timing and oil. Fish should be cooked to order — eight or ten minutes in the fryer, so the batter stays crisp and the flesh just flaking — and the oil should smell clean, not of old fat. In New Zealand shops the cabinet often holds tarakihi, gurnard or hoki, and it is worth asking which is which before you order. Regulars tend to phone ahead, because a teatime queue means a wait, and chips are best eaten within sight of the fryer rather than left to steam in their paper.
For a straightforward takeaway in Moera, Great Wall sits handy on Randwick Road.
