"Sit-down restaurants have taken things up a notch in Hobart in the last few years, but traditional, takeaway fish and chips joints will always have a place in the waterfront city. Head to Constitution Dock, where half a dozen floating eateries sell fresh and cooked seafood from to-go windows. The most famous, Flippers, deep-fries local trevalla, flake, and grenadier, as well as calamari and scallops. Order the substantial fisherman’s basket to taste a bit of everything. Squeeze on some lemon juice, dip the fish in tartar sauce, and enjoy while watching boats come and go. If you prefer to eat away from menacing seagulls, head to the family-friendly Fish Frenzy on the Elizabeth Street Pier, where you can sit inside. [$]" - Audrey Bourget
