He had a little washing up bowl full of water he used to dunk his hand in to wash off the batter, somehow he got distracted and stuck his hand in the fish pan thinking it was his bowl I have no idea how he did it except to say he wasn't the brightest spark 1 Quote

rennie Posted January 13, 2021 Posted January 13, 2021 I like chip shops! Don't have food from there very often nowadays. There are all sorts of styles and menus where we live, we use 1 for value, a different 1 for good fish and a different 1 again for kebabs I don't like the skin on my battered fish Quote

I would not recommend a Chippy in the forest however there is a local Bakery that for £3.60 meal deal gives you FRESH baguette & sticky bun, Crisps and soft drink, they are excellent, then there is a Cafe in Larkhill, an ice cream stop in Dorset. Food is much better at them than any local biker stop, however they are not traditional biker stops and never will be biker stops due to parking/ location more than the odd bike would be a problem.

I have always found that fish is best approx 5 minutes out of the pan. Gives time for the fat to drain away and it not be too ridiculously hot to eat! We are a busy enough shop that customers don't wait for it to be cooked as we usually have 7 or 8 up or more at busier times. Fish and Chips is very much a regional thing. Cod down south usually and haddock up north. We often get Londoners in asking for a saveloy or a pudding. A fish cake is a very different thing in Yorkshire as compared to the rest of the country (Yorkshire: Two slices of potato with fish in the middle) I have also been into some places (Birmingham was one) that won't do scraps My Friday night post scouts was incomplete without scraps. Birmingham 111th scout troop. Things must have changed in the last five decades. 1 Quote

The battered butty should be illegal. Quote
