You're right about the haddock, but french fries? Chips is suppose to be chunks of potatoes. I was introduced to fish and chips in Scotland in the early 60's where the Navy said I should live for a year and half. The fish was I believe haddock or cod in several big chunks as well as the potatoes. It was wrapped in newspaper and handed to you. Malt vinegar is a must. They also served some kind of white colored sausage.
