Blackbriar 8,569 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Mario's in Olney,Bucks is pretty good - and I had a deep fried Mars bar in Paisley a few years ago (F***ING DISGUSTING!). I really wanted to try the deep fried kebab, but bottled it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NEWKID 27,132 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) Fin Mccools in Teingmouth is good, capels in Exmouth too.. There was a Caples in Exeter, not sure if its still running, but I don't remember that one you mentions FOD.. The bear?? I had some from Rick Steins place in Padstow... Nice but no better than others and cost more.. The bits of batter with your grub was always called gribbles down here... Mum always asked for gribbles lol..

twobob 1,497 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Gnash, i'd disagree and say I much prefer chippies down your end than up here, the North West is piss poor for decent ones. I love it when mates of mine from SE London come up an go into our chippies and ask what fish it is.. Only to get a proper dumb arse look back from the staff because to them a fish is just a fish, white with batter on it, they ain't got a clue as to what it is... No different types like down your end and boy do I like that variety, love a bit of Rock me... The South West, as has been mentioned have some cracking chippies, so to do York's, with batter better than anywhere so, if i have to name one in this area, then The Swan in Southport is my fave... I could never understand that Bosun...the first time i experienced that was in the midlands i was seeing a bird up there and the fish and chip van would come round ......stood in the queue you,d hear " fish and chips please "...........................id think well what f****n fish rock cod plaice skate haddock what ???......You dont go into a pub and say " a pint of beer please "...........strange lot !.........................and as for batter on your chips what the f**k is that all about !! cod comes as standard up here if you want owt else you ask for it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Never understood the love for rock salmon, caught loads of them and to be honest nothing but a pest. I couldn't be arsed having to skin them, getting them off the hook without them trying to take the skin off your wrist is bad enough. Even the name rock salmon doesn't suit them. But I suppose it sounds better for the consumer than asking.... Dog fish and chips love Quote Link to post Share on other sites
