Paid Members Nexus 399 Posted June 5, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Beans + tabasco + cheese toastie, with both sides of the bread buttered. Delicious. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr_Danger 3,615 Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Both sides buttered is regulation toastieing isn't it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Sergio Mendacious 1,393 Posted June 5, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Corn muffin mix, in a mini muffin pan, with chopped up hot dogs. For extra value, throw some grated cheddar on top and chuck them under the grill Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands 3,821 Posted June 5, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) If you are not buttering both sides you don't deserve the toastie sandwich loveliness Edited June 5, 2015 by Lion_of_the_Midlands Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members johnnyboy 4,068 Posted June 5, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 (edited) You're from Harlow aren't you, PunkStep? There's a chippy near my girlfriend's parents' house that sells these, quite near to the town centre. They call it Potato Surprise. Not tried it myself but my missus raves about it. Atlantic Fish Bar on Hare Street? Dave's Plaice was the potato surprise purveyor of truth, courage, and valour ("careful mate, real hot") but that's now Harlow Tandoori.

Yeah sounds familiar, that might be it. It's attached to a really nice chinese. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members johnnyboy 4,068 Posted June 5, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 I can't remember if the Atlantic has one. The Marina in Old Harlow has a chinese inside. Food counters on either side of the floor, one's chips etc, one's a cutout window to a chinese kitchen wonderland. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members PunkStep 6,203 Posted June 5, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Harlow Tandoori, near Terminus House? Ugh, rotten. I had a questionable spiced toadfish in there once. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, at the end of Post Office Walk. Many years ago it was a chippy, the rather excellently named "Dave's Plaice." Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Nostalgia Nonce 1,611 Posted June 5, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 We used to have a Dave's Plaice too. It won an award for the quality of its fish and chips. Then they moved, and the new owners had a banner made that looked a lot like the one that Dave's Plaice had so people would think it was the same owners. Awful greasy stuff with no taste. There is a Dave's Place up Oak Tree way, who doesn't seem to have understood the joke. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Tommy! 3,496 Posted June 6, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 If I ever had a chippy, which would be the second best thing after owning a pub, it would have been called Dave's Plaice or "Good Cod Almighty". Round here its all Leyfield fish bar, glascote fish bar, four oaks fish bar. No imagination besides the jolly fryer, but the foods shit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members johnnyboy 4,068 Posted June 6, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 "Chez Fred" remains one of my favourite chippy names down on the south coast. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands 3,821 Posted June 6, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 Bizarrely the chippy near me is called Ye Olde Reindeer Chip Shop. To the best of my knowledge deep fried reindeer has never been served. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Shy Dad 1,285 Posted June 6, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 I somewhat one day hope to own a burger joint called "Sheer LaBeef" with a pattie shaped picture of everyone's favourite motivational speaker as our logo. As for Butch's mentioning of Beans in a toastie, its a fucking marvellous thing. Always come out scolding hot, but just what you need on a cold winter's night (or any night in fairness) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members DEF 913 Posted June 6, 2015 Paid Members Report Share Posted June 6, 2015 I'm not proud of this. OK I am. Yesterday may have been the most unhealthy day of my life and that's saying something. Rivalled only by the day I got the sweats from the amount of ice cream I'd eaten. Total - Large chips Battered sausage Savaloy Large kebab (no salad and garlic mayo) Xtra large kebab (salad, chili sauce and mayo) Now that's #EATCLEAN Quote Link to post Share on other sites
