At the moment im living and studying in Edinburgh and the list of the following is universally sold

All pies are deep fried with the filling dry and turgid , along with deepfried pizza
deep fried haggis, jumbo sauage(battered or not). in fact just about every thing is deep fried.
With Fish and chips it usually is curry sauce
they do not sell gravy but a thing called brown sauce
which is a mixture of vinegar and sauce.
and ...they do not sell Puddings, so the first thing I have when I get back down
Pudding, Chips, Mushy Peas and Gravy

Do they still do white pudding (I think it was called)? Used to love that when I was at Uni in Scotland.

You mean fruit pudding? Like a suet dumpling type thing with raisins in?
 
I went to uni in Middles b rough for my sins and the Chippy owners up there need to be lynched. Firstly you ask for a chip barm and they look at you like you're from f*cking Mars. Secondly they re-heat everything to the point it nocks you sick, I got a portion of chips and donner meat (don't get me started on omni-chippies) and the chips were green.

Can't beat Chippies in Manchester, fact.
 
anyone remember scrapings the bits of batter that had floated off the fish

mmmmm chips and a bag of scrapings

talking of crimes in a chippy i've seen a stabbing and a guy get beat half to death in chippies all for the price of a bag of chips

I think it was oatmeal or something so sort of like deep-fried porridge.
 
Yes they do still sell fruit pudding, with the raisins but that usally with a full
scottish breakfast, 2 eggs, 2 sausages, 2 bacon, baked beans, mushrooms, black pudding,
toast or fried bread, fruit pudding. all for £4.99 AND THERE ARE NO Abrakabara's for a decent curry.

Food up here is Fuking pants..even had to start cooking for me sen, what that all about
 
I can't stand fish with the skin still on under the batter....... That is a Chippy crime.
Also when they have the chips half cooked and then drop them in for a minute or so, or even worse frozen chips!!
You can't beat a good old fashioned Manchester Chippy before they started all the pizza and kebab nonsense. If i want a kebab i go to an Indian.
When i was over for Midgetland in Aug' we took the kids to Blackpool for the day and went in Woodheads Chippy near pleasure beach.....Mmmm Hollands puddings, perfect fish and perfect chips.(and a buttered muffin)
PS gravy with fish is a chippy crime. tho fish,chips and curry is imo perfectly acceptable.

Im fookin' starvin now' crap chippys here in Claremorris
 
The skin issue is an interesting one. I was thinking about that last night because the fish I had did have the skin on the underside but it was really nice fish, clearly very fresh. The skin made no real difference to the taste or quality.

One big crime is when the oil isn't hot enough when they put the chips in and the chips absorb loads of oil and never really go golden.

Each to his own mate, i don't like the skin .but the 1st time i had it i don't think it was as fresh as yours.I suppose like everything on here it is subjective (apart from Man City .. of course)
Though i do go along with the cold oil or should i say not hot enough oil thingy.
 
I've just read this post 10 oclock sunday morning and now i want a chippy tea! ffs
