Barbados: Flying Fish and Chips, and Other Britishisms After touring Sunbury Plantation, a gorgeous 300-year-old sugar plantation house with a 60-by-20-foot dining room, I headed back to my hotel, where I went swimming in the sea.

If you have suddenly lost your appetite for salmon, don't get too fond of the other options.
Farmed fish was having its mad cow moment.
What's more, the most dangerous fish of all were salmon raised in Scotland.
Researchers based at the University of Albany in New York revealed in the journal Science how they found high levels of contaminants such as PCBs, dioxins and pesticides in Scottish fish, which is marketed around the world as a premium product.
In Britain, 99 per cent of salmon sold in fishmongers and supermarkets comes from Scottish farms.
Across the UK this weekend sides of smoked pink fish 'fresh from the crystal clear waters of Scotland' sat untouched on shelves alongside curiosities such as salmon nuggets and tikka bites.
Staff in one branch of Tesco near Glasgow estimated that the store was shifting less than half its usual stock of farmed fish.
Catch the flavor of Britain at Southampton Fish & Chips : The Morning Call Online
Email Print Comment Mobile News RSS Feeds Last Updated: July 6, 2006 Catch the flavor of Britain at Southampton Fish & Chips By Susan Gottshall Special to The Morning Call If the name didn't give it away, then the large Union Jack flag hanging smack dab in the center of the rear wall would announce loud and clear that Southampton Fish & Chips is about the British Isles..
Southampton Fish & Chips is an outpost of its original Easton eatery, which has been serving up British fare for about a year.
As the name tells it, the focus here is fish and chips, that quintessential British meal of fried fish and potatoes, which, according to the menu, dates to the British Industrial Revolution of the 19th century.
Southampton Fish & Chips features five fish choices cod, haddock, tilapia, whiting and shrimp in small and large portion sizes (four to five ounces and eight to 10 ounces, respectively)..
Cod, the traditional choice for British fish & chips, was my choice as well.
Deep fried in low cholesterol vegetable oil, this fish was light and flaky with a delightfully crisp, clean crust, not at all greasy.
Generally not a fan of tartar sauce, I found the sauce served with this fish more flavorful than the usual variety, even though it wasn't made in-house..
