Massive queue outside chippy

[jobotic]

Mine does halloumi in batter.

Hipster vegetarian dinner party elite? Fuck off I still eat pickled eggs without chewing.

[Sebastian Cobb]

a burger for me and a few sausages for him

not even in my top 3 two ronnies porn parodies, sorry.

[Ferris]

The last time I was in the uk pissed up I fancied fish and chips and the cunts had run out of fish on a weekend. Made do with a saveloy (and chips) but it was not the same. Will not name the establishment (because I was blootered drunk and have no idea what it was called), but they are somewhere in Stoke Newington and I dearly hope they have ceased trading.

...actually I'll have a chicken kebab and chips. Cheers.

[Fr.Bigley]

Do any of you cunts know about the "Yorkshire" fishcake (no its not a mating ritual or a shite serial killer before you ask)? I've tried explaining to dozens of people outside W Yorks what it is and they just look at me like Thora Hird looked at stairs.


Here's the 411:

one bread cake sized, 1/4 inch slice of spud
some haddock or cod fillet
another 1/4 inch slice of spud
pressed together, battered and deep fried
served in bread with curry sauce/gravy/whatever.

[Marner and Me]

Cod, chips, jumbo sausage and curry sauce, if no curry sauce, enough liquid to drown Robert Wadlow and enough salt to cover the missing patches in the Antarctic.

[imitationleather]

Chips, curry sauce and battered sausage is my trip.

In wales they do a thing called a 'pie float' where you get a pie in a poly box 'floating' in mushy peas.

Do the same thing in Hebden Bridge, But with added lesbians.

I wonder if scollops are still a thing, don't think they are

Massively so here.

I haven't heard anyone order one in a chip shop in Birmingham since about 1989 - they always used to be what you bought when you had no money

We went to the chippy practically every day as some of us got cars in college. Donner or chicken meat + chips £2.50 back then.

[Fr.Bigley]

20p and some scraps if you're feeling flush. Quite depressing when you think about it.

[pigamus]

They actually always were depressing. Bit of a false economy really - a thick disc of fried potato is not actually very nice.

[Sebastian Cobb]

They call them potato fritters in Scotland. The best ones aren't just a slice of potato, it's been mashed. A bit like the stuff in potato croquettes, which are also simultaneously bleak yet comforting.

[Fr.Bigley]

If the UK was a food it would be these.

[dissolute ocelot]

Scrunchie or half-scrunchie, single or supper?

I believe it's deep-fried pizza in batter (you also get deep fried pizza without batter if you're one of those health nuts).

[holyzombiejesus]

Do the same thing in Hebden Bridge.

Do you like in HB? I live in Tod.

[Fr.Bigley]

I live in the big city one on from Bradford but I have family there. Todmorden is lovey though.

[holyzombiejesus]

Todmorden is lovey though.

It's not but thanks anyway.

[Emma Raducanu]

I've been to the Incredible Edible farm in Todmorden run by a great British eccentric. He milked his cow, which had just given birth and handed me a litre of yellow milk, which made an incredible rice pudding. Todmordens alright.

Don't only old people eat cod & chips now? I can't remember the last time I saw someone under the age of 55 eating it.

Roe (tinned obviously, no-one has ever ordered fresh roe from a chippy), large chips, maybe a pickled onion. Every so often I'll go down the sausage & chips with curry sauce route.

In all my 42 years, I have never seen anyone buy a saveloy, fishcake, bottle of vinegar or bottle of cockles. They're the takeaway equivalent of the fading combs and hair gel you get at barbers.

I once lived very close to a UK award-winning chippy. It was shit. The chips were always too fresh as the fryers were too small, no kebab option or roe and the owner was a smug prick.

[imitationleather]

no kebab option

Couldn't you have put this at the start of the post so I'd know not to bother reading?

Kebabs from a chippy? <shakeheademoji.com>

Probably because it's so expensive compared to everything else.

There is nothing wrong with kebabs from chippies, you absolute heathen.

[DistressedArea]

Think what's happened there, is that you've been getting your fish and chips from a kebab shop.

[pancreas]

You buy kebabs from chippies and *he's* the heathen??

Welcome to Brexit Britain.

No, kebabs come from a kebab shop. Think that is the key to this mystery.

[pancreas]

Whether or not you're right, there's no good way out of this for that scoundrel.
