In Liverpool, chippys are very different to the rest of the world. Normally, I'd get chicken fried rice from the chippy, because it's the best of the bad bunch. But since I've moved to Cheshire, that's not a chippy, it's a Chinese... |

"Cod, Chips & Mushy peas too.
My Chippys 'The Wheel House'"
Fish, chips and curry sauce...just round the corner from us. Been using it for 15 years and don't have the faintest idea what it's called !
Favourite chippy is the one in Paignton that does orange, battered chips and there's always someone outside giving away samples ! |

Hmmmmm now there’s a thing maybe I'm alone in this , but I grew up pretty much on the coast and we always used to say we were going to the “fishy” for a bag of chips, not the chippy….!.
Oh well perhaps I was a bit odd as a child... |

Ryan,,,now here's the problem with that .....
Everyone know if you ask for a Bun in the Fishy they'll give you a Bun
But if wander in the Fishy asking for a Roll you risk getting a slap around the chops, unless of course your luck is in...
Ya get me... eh!

Look it's quite simple. If it comes in slices it's bread. Two slices of bread with a filling constitutes a sandwich or sarnie for short. Anything else is a roll. |

Jesus wept!
The Fishy? Ha ha!
And a chip barm, it's chips on a barm cake. Nothing mad. A chip butty, or any butty for that matter, is on bread, like bread out of a loaf. A muffin? That's a cake, like a blueberry muffin, or chocolate muffin.
If you asked for a chip butty/muffin/batch/roll etc in a Liverpool chippy, you'd probably get laughed at and asked if you meant a chip barm. |

First of all they would ask you to refrain from calling her girl. Then they would politely ask what a barm was. Then they would ask why the hell you wanted gravy on it before saying that gravy is not on the menu. |

I usually get a jumbo battered sausage, cod or huss and chips from my local The Plaice in the Square.
There's an institution near Brighton station called Sing Li that really is the place to buy greasy food on the way home from a night out. Battered burgers are so bad they're good. |

Been all over the uk but the best chippie I've found is at the end of my street !
I do like Black Country chips though, and I know some people will say what ??
But battered chips are fantastic !!
I know I know - I'd never heard of them either but then I didn't know what islands where till I moved to the midlands ! |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
You know how much I love these North/South fish and chips debates. I have gleaned more regional knowledge than I ever thought possible from the Fab Forum and the fish and chip threads.
Ryan, my fish and chips restaurant will get you a kipper if you want one. They have the fishmongers across the road.
I don't understand this Northern thing of just having "fish" - I like to choose which fish I fancy. Sometimes it's haddock, sometimes cod, sometimes monkfish. If I don't want too much then I have tempura prawns. If I'm feeling special it's lobster and chips. No gravy or curry sauce (although I noticed they have now added this to the bottom on the menu). Salt and vinegar and a wally. |

"Been all over the uk but the best chippie I've found is at the end of my street !
I do like Black Country chips though, and I know some people will say what ??
But battered chips are fantastic !!
I know I know - I'd never heard of them either but then I didn't know what islands where till I moved to the midlands !"
Islands, as in roundabouts ?
Battered chips are indeed fantastic...I think my favourite chippy in Paignton is run by an ex-Black Country resident.
As for a choice of fish, that's just a bit Southern and yampy ! I'd like to see what happened if our local chippy offered tempura prawns ! |

What's yampy? Get your chippy (fishy for Soxy) to serve tempura prawns and see how well they do. |

One of my local fish and chip shops “Fishy” offers a cowboy supper but there’s nowhere to park a horse outside!!! |

I don't really understand why wanting to have a choice of fish is considered funny. Do you just get what your given and like it or lump it ? |

And for me it's either fish chips and gravy, or a scallop special which is 2 scallops chips and curry sauce in a teacake mmmmmm,
Or chip butty with gravy, I do prefer seaside fish and chips because the leave the skin on |

"Here in the chippy context, a scallop is a disc of potato battered and deep fried.
This"
I thought I should check. Scallops at my fish and chip shop is more associated with the sea than the earth. |

Of course not, you can have cod or haddock but haddock has to be cooked to order and gets you marked down as a troublemaker who's not to be trusted with ordering a fish supper
And a scallop is a piece of fried potato in batter from the chippy...obviously I know what the other scallop is too (I'm from the slightly sophisticated Midlands, not 'The North' !
Yampy - a bit soft in the head ! |

Deep fried, pork sausage kebab. Lol. Na. They only do this in Scotland. Lethal to so I have heard.
Mine has to be jumbo, battered sausage with chips and gravy. Although chippys are inconsistent in my area. Different ones are good for different things. |

"New question: I've seen people refer to scallops on this thread. Do we all mean the same thing? White fleshy thing from a shell with orange coral attached?"
Nah it's not from a shell. That's what they want you to believe.
It's a testicle from an underwater hobbit.
Don't eat them they give you hairy feet. |

Hobbits don't like it underwater.
There seems to be no end of battering that goes on in the fishy and chippy places across this land. |

"Just plain old fresh fish & chips - but if the fish is 'fresh' from the freezer ...............yuk!!"
How can it be fresh if its from the freezer? Lol. I remember before the greeter in asda was advertising "freshly" frozen turkeys for Xmas. When I picked him up for it. He still said they were fresh despite them coming out of the freezer, lol. |

I was being sarcastic - lol
If I could get "FRESH" fish from the sea (less than 24hrs since it was caught) I'd happily have that every single day for the rest of my life - but anything older - forget it!!" |

Well I still think what I said was strange as how can something be "freshly frozen" Lol.
I think certain things can be stored in a different way and you can get away with it. Like frozen and chilled taste almost as nice as each other when you get various types of chicken. Same with fish. But then you get frozen potatoes and it doesn't taste nice at all in my opinion. |

I agree dude - but fish from the sea is so different. You can taste the sea off fresh - & it just falls apart when cooked - but even kept on ice, once it's more than 24 hrs old it just doesn't taste the same. Then I'd rather have anything but fish. |

Can't understand why the Essex people call a Gerkhin a wally
Decent chippies in the village north of us.. Including a couple of award winning ones.. Don't think either of them serve kebabs though, it's a fish and chip shop

Nope. The potato in a scallop isn't mashed, just sliced thickly from the spud, parboiled, battered and deep fried like a big battered chip.
The patties you refer to are formed from mashed potato. |

Don't get me started on patties. Since I've been living in the North East, patties are a battered slice of potato and fish.....rubbish. Back home in my hometown of Hull is where the real pattie action is, mashed potato with sage mmmmmmm.
Always my first port of call when I return for four or five to satisfy the craving |
