Fish Friday at the Cat. Photo by [ Dwayne Brown ](http://blog.dwaynebrown.com/2011/07/fish-friday-at-cat.html) , used by permission.
It's a photo of the fish and chips at the [ Cheshire Cat Pub ](http://www.cheshirecatpub.com/) in Carp, and ever since I saw that photo I've been craving a big plate of battered haddock and crispy fries.  I asked our readers on Twitter for their picks for the best fish and chips places in Ottawa, and here are their recommendations, in no particular order:
 * 
[
 Lapointe's in Bells Corners
](http://www.lapointefish.ca/en/locations/all/bells-corners)

[
 O'Grady's Outpost
