Fish And Chips

[BlueTG]

Wish there was a good chippy near me! I haven't had chips in ages. Stockport is useless.

Nah it makes a good tipping site.

Lots of chippys don't sell haddock or cod now....so

Fish and chips can mean

PANGA and chips.

It's sold in boxes in Chinese supermarkets cheap as....er...chips.

Googled it and its nasty stuff.

Surely that should be panga and mash?

But yeah, fuck that. If it's not haddock or cod, then it's not fish and chips.

When I was last home, I was amazed how cheap it still is, or more accurately, how expensive it is to buy in supermarkets. Went into Asda and bought a fillet of cod and it cost me over £5. I was cooking it in the kitchen wondering why I'd bothered my arse when you can get a slightly bigger fish down the street, cooked for you, with a mountain of chips for £4.80.

I don't know how anyone could fall for this catfish replacing cod though. They taste nothing like each other.

I've posted this before, but my local 'Fish and Chip' restaurant takes some beating. Proper Cod/Haddock tails in a light crispy batter served with proper mushy peas, bread and butter and washed down with a large carlsberg. Works out at around 11 quid.

A good chippy is Grandma Pollards at Walsden, between Rochdale and Todmorden. The only thing is, it doesn't open at weekends, but it is very good.

As to the question, I could live without salt at a pinch, but vinegar is essential. Good fish and chips beats practically anything (except perhaps a really well done steak and kidney pudding like my missus does about twice a year) but sadly there's a lot of really crap fish and chips about. Some folk will eat owt!

Cyprus potatoes mate. And yeah, they're the business. Crispy outside and soft in the middle.

Here's the place should anyone want to visit the next time they're in Paphos.

Anyone think fish and chips from Yorkshire are better I think they use a different fat they taste completely different.

Yorkshire chippies use beef dripping or lard, the good ones do anyway.

This thread has made me crave chippy tea :(
