Fish and Chips

[Carvalho Diablo]

Peter Mandelson: "This avocado dip is delightful"

 

The bloke serving him in Verrall's chippy: "Those are mushy peas you posh cunt."

 

True story.

[YorkshireRed]

I may have mentioned this before, but there is a chippy near me where the entire menu consists of fish, chips, fish cakes, mushy peas. You can probably get a breadcake as well but it’s been a while. 
 

If memory serves fish cakes and peas weren’t available when I used to go in there after the Youth Club in the 1980’s. 
 

You certainly can’t get anything so la di da as a savaloy and if you requested a pickled egg the old lady who runs it would fuck you up there and then.

First thing I do when returning is to buy me some fish, chips & gravy

The fucking southern peasants, and I include my missus in this, have no concept or inkling of the joys of a good chippie gravy

Chips and gravy on the way to the pub and fish and chips for tea the next day.

 

My wife is the same 'But, why would you put gravy on and make the chips soggy?' 'Be gone woman and don't darken my door again, harriden.'

Mayonnaise. That's all I'm saying. Mayo fucking naise. 

 

So wrong that there isn't a word for how wrong and disgusting this suggestion is. Do you also enjoy licking Nigel Farage's ringpiece?

Gravy with fish?, curry yeah, but gravy?, no thanks.

Only on the GF would a saveloy be considered la di da. 

There's plenty on here that think that battered mars bars are a sign of the haute bourgeoisie

The length of the menu is usually inversely proportional to the quality of the fish and chips. The ones around here that do pizzas, curries, burgers, kebabs etc as well are invariably crap.

Roll on June 18th. Week long shift change over from work means me and the Mrs can go to Scarborough for the weekend. Chippy heaven. Especially the Fish Pan on the South Bay.

There used to be a good one on the A64 just off the A1M heading towards Scarborough just outside York slightly set back on the left.

Last time we were there it was just fish and chips. The haddock was fantastic, bloody big as well and the chips were always good.

A few years ago now like.

Wackers used to be good in the town centre as well, that's a sit in place.

Our kid used to live on Olney St, just around the corner from Byrnes Chippy. By far the best F&C in Liverpool.

Chips, Pukka pie and a savaloy. I’m going to the chippie tonight. 

Pukka pies are crap. You get about two teaspoons worth of filling.

What is a saveloy?

It’s what boring cockney cunts say after “Oy oyyyyy” 

 

Oh and it’s a cooked dick sold in some chippys

Wackers is rubbish. The batter is really thick and dense. Everything is greasy as fuck. There isn’t a top class chippy in York, in my opinion.

This fucking thing is a saveloy, think of a sausage, then forget it as they taste fuck all like them and have the consistency of a tyre.

 

Rotten things.

[TheHowieLama]

A hot dog?

They’re common place in chippies in the south-east. You can get them nationwide in supermarkets, too. I’ve seen them on the deli in Sainsbury’s.

Eat it.

 

It's just a shit, tasteless, rubbery sausage type thing that has the weird hue to it for whatever reason.

You can boil or fry them. They’re shit boiled because, as you say, they’re rubbery. They’re ok deep fried as the skin is crispy.
