Chinese fish and chips?

One of the things we noticed when we first moved over here, and haven't yet commented on (I don't think) was how you don't get fish and chips quite like you do in Australia.  In Oz, your local fish and chippie generally sells fish and chips, burgers, potato fritters etc and not much more.  Here in NZ, it seems that every fish and chip shop is also a Chinese takeaway (they do seem to be mostly Chinese owned for some reason).  So, our local fish and chippie has a special on currently: you can get $3 of chips for free with your sweet and sour pork.  Dunno about you, but I still find that kind of weird.
