Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Chips and Fish (as sung by Brian Peters)
We had "Bet & Jesse's Fish and Chips" down the street at Fielding and Grand River when I was a kid in Detroit. I imagine it was the one and only "Bet & Jesse's," and their fish and chips were a trip to heaven. I left Detroit at the age of nine, but I still remember those fish and chips as a real tread. I went back to my old neighborhood last summer, and the only existing business I remember from my childhood was the Danish bakery. Everything else had changes - supermarkets, car dealers, everything except for public buildings, some churches, and that bakery. Oh, it looks like Bet & Jessie's is still in business, but just moved a couple miles west on Grand River.
