Yeah The Battered Cod is OK. And The New Don in Altrincham isn't too bad. But neither are as good as anything Yorkshire has to offer.

What really annoys me about some chippies is when they proudly display posters stating that they fry their fish and chips in vegetable oil, (Battered Cod used to do that)! I mean, WTF? Beef Dripping all the way - it tastes better and is less carcinogenic.

We had a lengthy duscussion about this previously. I'm sure we ended up agreeing that it is traditional in Hull to fry in nut oil, not beef dripping. Also, the general concensus was Frydays was the best in Hull. No agreement was reached on skin or no skin. The jury was split.
 
She's backed down. She's just not having chips, wants a double helping of peas instead.

She normally gets beans and I have to pretend I'm not with her.
 
Started using All Electric chippy in early 60's (not sure what it was called then) when still at Endike primary school with my brother - used to skip school dinners on Wednesday and Friday when chippy was open and got a bag of chips and a patty for 7 pence out of our shilling's dinner money.
It was far better than the school dinners.
I'll say. My auntie owned it.

I fancy a burger or a steak.

Off on my hols tomorrow so can't get too mullered, driving to East Midlands first thing.

.

Have fun but remember the M1 most of the way there is 50mph average speed cameras & then always on 70mph gantry cameras on the managed motorway right up to the East Midlands turning.

I might pass you on the new Yamaha as I head down for a weekend of BSB at Donington Park
 
Smoked cheese and caramelised onion burger and fries washed down with 4 pints of Guinness.

On the red wine now.

Might as well start my hols fro here.
 
I went to Kingfisher on Spring Bank West in the end. Never been in Cave St. When I lived right near there I always went to Smithy's across the road.

Slimming world said she had to take the batter off her fish.
 
They're all Halal chippies here in Preston so the gravy doesn't taste the same and the battered sausages have a spicy taste to them.

Can't beat a good chippy in Hull! Easily one of the best places for them
