I ate this meal at the end of 5 days of bushwalking AKA backpacking.

The chips and “butter fish” are accompanied by a wedge of lemon, some tartare sauce and a sprinkling of chicken salt. Also a deep fried dim sim, a calamari ring, and a battered scallop.

Including a drink (ginger beer?), it cost AUD$16.80.

    I think both are correct

    https://grammarist.com/usage/tartar-or-tartare/

    • Tartar sauce is right
    • Tartare can describe a type of fish meal AND was a French version of what we now can tartar sauce.

    And you know restaurants like to make their menus as “ye olde” as possible with over the top descriptions. So referring to a century old sauce is within norms for that craziness.
