I went into the Chippy the other week for a fish supper and when I got outside and opened the bag I noticed that I only had about 10 chips. I went back in and asked "Is this fish fresh?" "Aye" the owner replied "Why?" "I thought so" says I. "It's eaten half my ****ing chips"
Got to admit, I don't like the broon sauce they serve in Edinburgh chippies. Drown everything in it. You could be eating a white pudding supper or a steak pie* and it tastes the same. * Pre-vegetarianism days.
I was walking by the chipper the other night and a big fight broke out in it, two fish and a sausage got battered.
I sampled one when I visited Edinburgh, always make a point of sampling the local cuisine when I'm abroad.
