Topic: I'm going the chippy...

[Sir Capon of Debaser]

Hahaha. Vinegar nonces are the worst

haha

[Djozer]

We always get smoked Haddock when we are having fish, prefer the taste.

Love smoked haddock, never seen it in a chippy but would get it every time if so. Lovely stuff. Battered smoked haddock sounds like it would be insanely good.

My girlfriend calls it a chippy, anyone else do that or is she just nuts?

Is she from Birmingham area?  I've heard people form there call it that..

Is she Irish? My wife's aunts call it that. The weirdos.

Yup, Irish.  Figures.

My missus does that too. She's from near Edinburgh but has spent a bit of time in Norn Iron, if that helps.

[campioni]

chippy is a southern Ireland thing. Its a chippy in the north.

Fish, chips and curry with two rounds of bread (preferably plain bread) on a Friday evening is hard to beat.

[J_Kopite]

Chips, curry and sausage

Leave the salt and pepper chicken for the Chinese (I'm looking at YOU Lobster Pot).

[Ziltoid]

There should be so much vinegar that you need a mask

Correct

Yeah never heard it called a chippy up here in NI.

[Mr Mingebag Squid]

Chicken Tikka Kebab, hot chilli sauce and cone of chips drowned in salt and vinegar!

[Szemerényi]

Pommes Anna, roast Pheasant, Madeira sauce.

[Grobbelrevell]

Jumbo sausage
Chips
Cheese
Gravy

Salt and vinegar 

[CheshireDave]

Pea wet?  Never heard of that... 

Takes all sorts I guess..

I work with a girl from St Helens and she eats that. Pie barm and pea wet. Basically a pie in a bread roll with mushy pea juice on. Not for me. Love some of the regional delights on offer in chippies. When I worked in Crewe 'smack bap' was very popular - basically a potato fritter inside a bread roll. They were also mad for battered sausages around those parts. They can't hold a candle to Scottish chippies though. I saw a man order a battered donner kebab once. Beyond grim.

Large fish (not arsed which species) - just salt and lemon wedge if they have it, small chips salt and swimming in vinegar and pot of mushy peas or sometimes curry and a can of dandelion and burdock. Delicious.

They say "going down the Chip-oi"

[The Bournemouth Red]

Sounds like one of these;

The stonner kebab is a pork sausage wrapped in strips of doner meat, coated in two layers of batter, and then deep fried.[1] It is served on a bed of chips. The kebab weighs 1.4 kilograms.[2] The dish is available in Ruby Chip Shop in Glasgow.[3][2][4] The name "stonner" is derived from a combination of "sausage" and "donner", and is the Glaswegian slang word for an erection.

The stonner kebab shot to fame because of its high calorie count of 1,000 calories, and 46 grams of fat.

Used to live right by the Park Brow chippy in Kirkby who had the best curry sauce i've ever had. Also used to love a sausage dinner from there which was:

3 sausages (2 was standard but I paid for an extra one)
chips
Marrowfat peas
Raw onion
Gravy

All in a tray. Fantastic. Glad I don't live near there now or I could eat that every night

Lemon wedge? In a chippy?

[Elmo!]

Lemon wedge? In a chippy?

I had a lemon wedge on my fish supper last night. Was form a fairly posh chippy though.

[Buck Pete]

Yeah come on Dave. I know Cheshire is supposed to be posh like but... Lemon Wedges!!

[Danny Boys Dad]

Yeah come on Dave. I know Cheshire is supposed to be posh like but... Lemon Wedges!!

Bet he gets tartare sauce on it as well, and from a jar not a little plastic sachet

[Buck Pete]

That's just reminded me of an embarrassing moment

Went into a Chippy (chippy) in Aberdeen many many years ago and ordered Fish & Chips.  Girl behind the counter says "Fish Supper"?.  No I replied in a louder voice "Fish & Chips" please.

The chippy was packed and the Scots were laughing at the stupid English berk.

She then asked if i wanted Salt & Sauce.  Didn't dare question what the fuck the sauce was, so just said "yes please"

[CheshireDave]

Yeah come on Dave. I know Cheshire is supposed to be posh like but... Lemon Wedges!!

  In the sit down chippy around my way you get a lemon wedge with every fish. I can live without though.

  Not all of Cheshire is posh.

[CheshireDave]

Bet he gets tartare sauce on it as well, and from a jar not a little plastic sachet

Of course. But only if I picked some fish and chips up on the way home. What sort of animal doesn't have tartar sauce in?!

Not the Seafarer in Northwich is it Dave?

Ha, always forget supper (in the context of a chippy) is a Scottish term.

Salt & Sauce is an Edinburgh thing, surprised you were offered it in Aberdeen. The sauce is brown sauce mixed with extra vinegar and it's horrible.

[Danny Boys Dad]

Of course. But only if I picked some fish and chips up on the way home. What sort of animal doesn't have tartar sauce in?!

Do you buy it from Fortnum's or does one's butler make it at home?

[blert596]

Bag of scraps please mate!!

[CheshireDave]

Not the Seafarer in Northwich is it Dave?

Nice chips in there mate.

No, mate. Its near where I work in Macclesfield. Will give that one a go though when I am next in Northwich way, Cheers.

[Sir Capon of Debaser]

Gammon n chips is boss at one of those sit in seaside resort type chippies,with a big slice of pineapple

[Samie]

I fucking love scraps. its' best to go late at night just before closing as that's when they'll give you ALL of it. 

[CheshireDave]

Do you buy it from Fortnum's or does one's butler make it at home?

You're right! Jeeves takes care of all my condiment needs at my homestead.

[Crosby Nick]

Prefer it with an egg rather than pineapple.

Not a fan of tartare sauce whether from a sachet or a jar delivered by Jeeves.

[SandyShore]

Lord no,  one average  portion of chips can have up to 400-500 calories and that is without including any disgusting fatty extras like Doner Kebab or Sausages.

[Danny Boys Dad]

God lord no,  one average  portion of chips can have up to 400-500 calories and that is without including any disgusting fatty extras like Doner Kebab or Sausages.

Anyone who is calorie counting probably wouldn't be in the chippy anyway, unless it was to pick up a lemon wedge for their hot water.

My nan lived on Kirkby Row so we used to go in there a lot when I was a kid, sausage dinner was one of our favourites. We moved to Southport in 1986 and the local Chinese did a fantastic sausage dinner with a fried egg on it. Our kid ended up moving to Bournemouth in about 1995 and could not get the local chippy to understand the sausage dinner. he was oining for one so much I actually got one from our chippy and took it down. My girlfriend at the time thought I was mental when I stopped at the chippy on our way down.

[rob1966]

One I remember from the Tower Hill chippy when I was a kid was battered hamburgers.

When my Ma was flush, a treat was chicken fried rice.
