I think they mean fish and chips takeaway

Brighton, South Australia

Chips are Australian for fries

    Any Australianese here who can explain what a “CHICKOO” is? My independent research only gives me some weird Mexican fruits.

      It sort of looks like a Chicko Roll, although I’ve never heard them called a ”chickoo” before

      My independent research by googling chickoo australian gave me this. I’m not Australian though, so no guarantees.

        …first sold in 1951 as the “Chicken Roll” despite not actually containing chicken…
