===Ireland=== {{Main|Irish cuisine}} In Ireland, the first fish and chips were sold by an Italian immigrant, Giuseppe Cervi, who mistakenly stepped off a North America-bound ship at Queenstown (now [[Cobh]]) in [[County Cork]] in the 1880s and walked all the way to [[Dublin]].<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.independent.ie/lifestyle/food-drink/national-fish-and-chips-day-thank-cod-for-giuseppe-2656484.html |title=National Fish and Chips Day: Thank cod for Giuseppe |work=Irish Independent |access-date=23 August 2012 |archive-date=3 July 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120703065529/http://www.independent.ie/lifestyle/food-drink/national-fish-and-chips-day-thank-cod-for-giuseppe-2656484.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> He started by selling fish and chips outside Dublin pubs from a handcart. He then found a permanent spot in Great Brunswick Street (now [[Pearse Street]]). His wife Palma would ask customers "Uno di questa, uno di quella?" This phrase (meaning "one of this, one of that") entered the [[vernacular]] in Dublin as "one and one", which is still a way of referring to fish and chips in the city.<ref name="Hegarty 2009 17"/>
