Unfortunately I snap(pered) it skin side up so it looks weird. I also suspect they use upper loin of cod for lunch portion which has a triangular shape, as opposed to the flat wide pieces you get usually. Quote

In the name of the UKFF chippy thread I will go in and try it. Quote
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted October 5, 2018 Paid Members Posted October 5, 2018 Forgot to post this. There's a break in the seasons of my Man v Fat league so allowed myself a Chippy Tea a few nights ago. You might have read on the BBC website about the Hull Pattie recently. A glorious battered pattie of mashed potato and sage. Fantastic with a load of salt and vinegar. Here's mine with 1/2 portion of chips (gotta keep them calories down), peas and gravy. Absolutely devine. I now live across the road from a great chippy and a good chinese. There's a superb Pizza place 100m away and a subway in the petrol station 5 doors down. It's heaven and hell.

Paid Members PunkStep Posted October 5, 2018 Paid Members Posted October 5, 2018 Of course Hull have their own little chip shop delicacy, they always like to feel special. Sounds really nice actually though, I've never considered what battered mash would taste like, but it sounds like a good idea. Quote
Mr_Danger Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 Some chippies around here will give you one of those when you ask for a cheese and onion savoury. They're fine but it's a bit of a piss take. That fish on Onyx's looks gross though. Quote
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted October 5, 2018 Paid Members Posted October 5, 2018 You in Liverpool @Mr_Danger? I asked for a Pattie in Liverpool once and the woman laughed at me. But they did something they called a "scallop" or "scollop" which was almost idencital but flatter and without the herbs. @PunkStep The pattie is a Hull (or East Yorkshire more accurately) thing. Probably the name more than anything. A Pattie Butty is a great meal in itself. As above, I've come across variations. Once got sold a "Pattie" in Bridlington that had fish in the middle. Now we all know that's a fishcake. I called trading standards. Quote

Modern ones, as we see in shops, are minced/flaked fish mixed with mash, deep-fried in breadcrumb, but she said that back when she was a kid (1950s), a fishcake was a piece of fish put between two slices of potato, what they'd use for scollops/scallops nowadays, then put in batter and deep-fried. Apparently they were the choice of people who didn't have a lot of money. Quote

So like the kebab houses it wasn't a proper chippy. There was a chippy by us that was a multicultural hub. They had the traditional chippies menu but had a basic donner meat spit set up and the kitchen connected to their Indian take away arm of the business. Miraculously both were quality. They then went and opened a 'fine dining' establishment next door. Anyway, the point of the story is they did a scollop and donner meat bap for £1.20. No wonder the fine dining restaurant didn't last 6 months. Edited October 5, 2018 by Mr_Danger Quote

Keith Houchen Posted October 20, 2018 Posted October 20, 2018 A mate of mine got married yesterday at the Registry Office in Manchester yesterday. So I did the right thing and went straight to Wrights Traditional after the ceremony and before the reception as there wasn't a sit down meal. Proper wedding breakfast, this. Quote
