Sign for a Fish and Chip Shop

A local fish and chip shop in Annandale, Sydney is being renovated. At present there is no sign, so I thought I would suggest they try pictograms, to make it easy to find and understand. A nearby shop has a trendy upmarket sign in a font which is hard to read and has a name which makes it difficult to work out what you can buy there.

The AIGA/DOT symbol signs have: Coffeeshop Restaurant . But where do I get a standard symbol for fish and for takeways?

  1. A silhouette of a fish (easy enough!), and a packet of fries -- a stylized version of this -- http://www.boncherry.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/375px-french_fries_juliane_kr_rsvg.png

  2. Maybe a soft drink cup with a straw, too? But then, that would detract from the "FISH + CHIPS" message. ;)
