Surely just spend a couple of quid and buy some chips the next time you are passing?Quote:

Yep - I wouldn't go any distance for fish & chip (although as I am in Whitby at the moment, I do have quite a bit of choice...)Quote:

Watch of the day: Omega Seamaster, automatic, stainless, pre-Bond.

In my experience best haddock and chips has always been in Scotland.

Lot’s of experience, it’s Scotland’s fush of choice. 2/3 haddock, 1/3 cod served in Scotland, 1/3 haddock, 2/3 cod in England. I’ve never had or fancied Huss or Rock Salmon.Quote:

Why do so many chip shops no longer sell their fish with the skin on?
Had a large haddock with skin on - no chips today with mushy peas and vinegar, splendid so much flavour in the fish skin.
Minging!Quote:

The only way to serve it. Food doesn't get much better than that.Quote:

It's a chippy. Spend a tenner and try it. :eagerness:
Having said that I try to avoid places that put chips etc in little mesh cages, and sprinkle bits of extra greenery over the food!
I have noticed that fish and chip shops often have names similar to watch models. There is a
seamaster near me.
I've found that fish & chips; as a cuisine, is a divisive and subjective beast. In my experience to recommend a chippy is to take your life into your hands and will almost certainly divide opinion.
That said, give me a large cod and chips with a saveloy chaser with lashings of salt & vinegar (always with the vinegar first!) any day of the week. If I'm really pushing the boat out bread & butter and bonus points for scraps :wink-new:
F*****m?Quote:

You're not a million miles away from Pisces in Eastcote, only been once and loved it but am forever hearing good things. Harry's on Lady Margaret Road in Southall/Greenford isn't half bad either.Quote:

Mmmmmm.... that’s got me salivating over thoughts of a chip butty, doorstep bread, tonnes of butter and really hot chips.Quote:

When we go to the coast for fish and chips, usually Whitby, it has to be with white bread and butter, mushy peas and a pot of tea.Quote:

Last fish & chips I had was in Longsands in Tynemouth (with scraps and a pickled egg). Bloody lovely.
Now we're upping the ante...
I love a pickled egg but you can't beat a good "wally" - my Dad's name for a gherkin when we used to stop at Regans (sic) on the way home from swimming on a Friday night, my eyes still stinging from the chlorine of the pool being hit by the acidity of the vinegar in the atmosphere and burning my mouth on the piping hot chips presented to me on a wooden fork whilst stood in the queue, as was the custom...

Regans may be recognisable to those of you who who have been to Twickenham Stadium, fond memories. Still run by the same couple but sadly last time I visited it didn't live up to my memories :sadskull:
I'm very familiar with Regans. Next time you're there I suggest that you order a Nigel Burger :rugby:.Quote:

It's basically a burger with everything in it and named after an erstwhile local (who is now resident in Spain). I've had it a couple of times.Quote:
