The only bad thing about moving out of our Fallowfield hovel 5 years ago was that we were no longer near The Battered Cod. It's been one of the best chippies around for absolutely years. I had to eat it sat in my car like a tramp, so couldn’t get the right angles for a pic. Awesome chippy though, never knew it existed. The scallop was that crispy it shattered when I bit into it, showering me with salt, vinegar and greasy scrapings. It was like eatclean bukakke. Quote

Very glad to hear it's still as good as it always was though! Edit: Is "Happy Days" by Sainsbury's still around? They used to do fantastic £2 pepperoni pizzas. Perfect stopping place on the walk home from town at 2 in the morning. I don’t think so, was it on the bit with Abdul’s or further up near Subway? Quote

Awards Moderator Frankie Crisp Posted January 5, 2019 Awards Moderator Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) My usual chippy isn’t open until Monday so tried one in the middle of town out. Chicken - ten on ten, mushy peas - bingo, chips - snap, erm, minor criticism, would have preferred the battered sausages to have been included during the gravy pouring. But I'm nit-picking, on the whole a very good effort, seven on ten. Edited January 5, 2019 by Frankie Crisp Quote

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted January 5, 2019 Paid Members Posted January 5, 2019 Those mushy peas are magnificent. Quote

Rey_Piste Posted January 6, 2019 Posted January 6, 2019 That looks like someone with diarrhoea emptied their bowels on top of your dinner. Then I do find mushy peas abhorrent, because as a general rule green stuff doesn't belong on a chippy dinner. Quote

Peas should be thick enough to retain the shape of the plastic container they come in even after you've pushed it out. Quote

One’s a battered sausage, the other one’s a submarine. On the whole, that meal looks horrifically lovely. Quote
