Paid Members BigJag Posted August 9, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 9, 2023 Sandys chip shop in Folkestone. Lovely and crispy chips. We went back for seconds on our walk . I forgot to take a picture. The stalking seagulls compelled us to consume the chips quickly. Quite impressed with the efforts made by Folkestone in conserving their beachfront. Sandys is also veggie friendly. Unlike uber posh Wheelers in Dover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenryck Pilchards Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 The local rag had an adverticle of a chippy round the corner from me plugging that they are now selling a battered kebab bun. I will take one for the UKFF team to try out this monstrosity and report back my findings.

SuperBacon Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Oh that sounds superb @Glenryck Pilchards picture evidence please. Our local chippy won the best in Hampshire. https://www.hampshirelive.news/whats-on/whats-on-news/pauls-plaice-best-fish-chips-8653500?int_source=amp_continue_reading&int_medium=amp&int_campaign=continue_reading_button#amp-readmore-target Its decent, but I cannot see it being the best chippy in the county. I'm sure there's a few on here that live locally, so would be interested to hear their thoughts. And no, I still haven't had mushy peas.

Merzbow Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 I'm pretty sure those "best chippy" awards are paid for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to "Jake" he didn't even know they'd been nominated, which I would believe if they hadn't been telling everyone they were entering and that we should vote for them 🤣 "Speaking after the results were confirmed, Jake said: "I'm so overwhelmed with the support and love from all my customers, I didn’t even know we were entered into the competition until a customer messaged me!"

Chili Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 I'd love to know how many chippy awards exist in the UK. Every chippy seems to have one, I can't imagine they all have committee meetings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidB6937 Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Why don't WE have a chippy award? If I saw the UKFF APPROVED sign in the window I'd be right in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Ronnie Posted August 16, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 16, 2023 I'm home alone for a few hours, which means I can engage in some debauchery. I would've normally considered ÂŁ10.50 too much for a chippy (I find it far too easy to use prices from decades past as a reference) but I think most would consider that fair game for small chips, a mini cod, battered sausage, and a curry sauce. I was apprehensive about a small portion of chips being too little but can now confirm that it was spot on: I've avoided the customary compulsion to sleep which usually curses me after one of my rare trips to the chippy, Croft Fisheries in Nuneaton. Now to dispose of the evidence ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first moved to Glasgow my then local chippy had some sort of award from Keith Chegwin of all people proudly on display. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members DEF Posted August 21, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 21, 2023 Just been on a day out with the extended family to West Witterings beach. Have just ended the day in a playpark scoffing two battered vegan Richmond sausages and chips. Sausages excellent as were the fish and chicken nuggets everyone else had. Chips on the other hand were a letdown. Soft and really pretty cold. So a bit of a let down but it's did the job. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members waters44 Posted August 21, 2023 Paid Members Share Posted August 21, 2023 Any Northerners here had a “John Bull”? A video just popped up on my Instagram feed. Two layers of potato with mince in the middle and then deep fried. Seriously contemplating driving the three hours to Blackburn to try it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
