Hey friends, Alayna here. I'm back with another story nobody asked for. 🙃

What's happening: I'm 99% sure I found the biggest fish sticks in metro Denver.

  • They hail from a seafood shop on Pecos Street near U.S. 36 that my fiancé and I stumbled upon one recent Saturday afternoon.

Details: Yorkshire Fish & Chips may not look like much from the street, but this no-frills family-owned restaurant has been serving authentic homemade English fare for more than 50 years.

  • Yorkshire's fish sticks — beer-battered Icelandic cod — come fried to crispy golden perfection, served in a humble paper tray atop a bed of hot "chips."
  • Though the fries are forgettable (and could really use some salt, as could the fish), they're redeemed by the heaps of ultra-crunchy deep-fried batter bits dumped beneath them.

By the numbers: The cod is cut into roughly 9.5-inch-long, 1-inch-wide strips that outstretch their containers.

  • A full order, with two fish pieces and fries, will set you back $17.95.
  • A half order costs $9.85.

What they're saying: "I might die of a heart attack, but as long as I die eating Yorkshire fried fish, I will go into heaven happy," wrote local Jacob Gillman in a recent Google review.

Be smart: Most folks come here for the fish, not so much the ambiance.

  • But with a sprawling parking lot, there are plenty of spaces to hop in your hatchback and have a perfect fish stick picnic.

Pro tip: Salt, lemons and vinegar are your friends here. Don't be afraid to use them.

Your next Canada Goose coat might be on its second life by the time it gets to you. The Toronto-based, luxury apparel company announced Thursday that it is bringing Generations, a platform allowing consumers to shop for and trade in pre-loved pieces from the brand, to Canada. Pieces available for trade-in or purchase through Generations will range from the company's popular parkas and outdoor vests to snowsuits, snow pants, trench coats and even fleece and knitwear. The program is being launched to further Canada Goose's commitment to sustainability but also cater to the growing number of people seeking second-hand goods, Carrie Baker, the company's president, said. "The resale market is growing like crazy, even faster than just regular commerce, and for us, it really taps into our target demographic," she said. Baker has seen statistics suggesting 80 per cent of consumers under the age of 30 shop for pre-loved goods, but interest in purchasing sec...
