Moderators PowerButchi Posted January 25, 2017 Author Moderators Posted January 25, 2017 Yeah. Like a big disc of chip in batter. Quote
Mr_Danger Posted January 25, 2017 Posted January 25, 2017 Yeah. A big round chip in batter. Can be had on a buttered floury bap for the bargain sum of 65p! Saturated with vinegar and dusted with salt naturally. Quote
Paid Members Lorne Malvo Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2017 I dread to think how many years I took of my life, having a double-scallop sandwich for dinner every day I was at high school. Bloody lovely mixture of batter, butter, salt and vinegar. Quote
Paid Members Nick Soapdish Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2017 we don't get those down south. We do have a few chippies that do a southern fired roast potato like thing Quote
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) Round here they also do the Scallop with a couple of cheese slices inside. So a big round chip, dipped in batter with scalding hot cheese oozing out of the middle. That also takes me back to when I was a kid. We used to get a square of "Plastic" ham, put a square of "Plastic" cheese on top of it, roll it into a tube, dip it in batter, and deep fry it until it was golden. Eaten with salad in a forlorn hope of balancing out the sheer heart attackyness of the ham and cheese fritter. Also we used to have a lot of corned beef fritters, we'd probably call it tempura now because we have stumbled into a middle class cul-de-sac from our working class roots. I wouldn't have used the words "Cul-de-sac" back then either. Edited January 25, 2017 by Lion_of_the_Midlands Quote
Keith Houchen Posted January 25, 2017 Posted January 25, 2017 For future reference, they are called scallop batches. Quote
Moderators PowerButchi Posted January 25, 2017 Author Moderators Posted January 25, 2017 Can we all agree, like everything else in the south, that their chippies are dump. Quote
Paid Members Gus Mears Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2017 We get friblets though. They piss on anything the North and wherever Butch lives can come up with. Quote
Paid Members Sergio Mendacious Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2017 That's a made up word, that is. I would second the southern chippies are shit, except I like a bit of rock now and again. Quote
Moderators PowerButchi Posted January 25, 2017 Author Moderators Posted January 25, 2017 We get friblets though. They piss on anything the North and wherever Butch lives can come up with. In God's Country, Boyson. In God's Country. What's a friblet? Quote
Paid Members ElCece Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2017 Battered Haggis is where its at if we are talking localised chip shop options. Yeah Gus what is a friblet? Google hasn't been much help Quote
Moderators PowerButchi Posted January 25, 2017 Author Moderators Posted January 25, 2017 Probably some yokel west country dish. Deep fried turnip and cow shit or something. Quote
Paid Members Gus Mears Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Posted January 25, 2017 Deep fried giblets. Delicious offaly goodness available at all fine West Country chippies. Quote
Moderators PowerButchi Posted January 25, 2017 Author Moderators Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) Also, I'm on a new diet for the new year consisting mainly of red meat and cholesterol. For breakfast I had three bacon baps, now for lunch I'm having four gammon rounds, and for tea I shall have a delightful steak and kidney frey bentos. As snacks through the day I have the odd Hollands scotch pie with lots of ketchup and as a special treat a massive analogue of a Sara Lee I got from Farmfoods is defrosting in the fridge and will be eaten today. I am drinking strawberry nesquik (whole milk or jersey gold top), Lilt, and Newcastle Brown Ale. My energy and vitality is through the roof, my moods have massively improved, and I have a certain glow around me. Like I'm pregnant. However, my arse babies haven't been born healthy. Losing their former rigidity to become pale brown water, sluicing through the arsehole and burning like Windsor Castle in 1992. It's not all bad though, as I quite enjoy sitting on the chodbin having a read. Edited January 25, 2017 by PowerButchi Quote
