My wife, son & I only have chips from a chip shop every Saturday to take home & my wife roasts a chicken. Only vinegar & tomato sauce added at home. Salt is bad for you.
Obviously not their best customer.

If I could have anything Id have plaice and chips and mushy peas with salt and lots and lots of vinegar. When I was in Scotland when I was younger we went to a fish and chip shop and had a fish supper and there were two peices of fish with my chips!

Depending on which chip shop you go to, it's still the same.

Has to be the full on cod, chip and peas - best one I ever had was in Cornwall.
But for comfort memories it would be sausage, beans and chips in a tray when we were at school, drowned in salt and vinegar on a Winter's day. |

Mmm... Love a nice haddock supper (much nicer than cod) or a lovely smoked sausage supper (sausage doesn't have any batter there btw).
Also like to have a haggis supper occasionally. For those who can't get it in their area, it's usually presented like a battered sausage - in that it's long, thin and covered in batter. Sometimes though you get it as a more familliar round ball shape - again coated in batter. I do love a good supper from the chippie, especially with loads of salt and vinegar. I know they say it's bad for you but as long as you're not having one every day I don't see the problem. ![]() One thing I'd be interested to hear is if there are any other regional variants (like the Haggis supper) which can be found around the uk! |

Sausage Supper covered in gravy from my local chippy in Scotland.
Living in London for five years and I've yet to find a decent chippy. They think gravy is watery

It also tends to be haddock rather than cod. |

Difference is though, in England the fish is battered whole, whereas in Scotland it tends to be sliced down the middle.

Rock and chips if possible but Rock is like hens teeth where I live. If it's not available, I'll have saveloy, pea fritter (not the horrible perfect round ones, the nice homemade oddly shaped ones...) and chips with lots of salt and a splash of vinegar

Where I live, one of the things I always remember about the Chippy near to my school was the fact that they did something called a Chip Bucket...
As you went into the liitle Chippy at lunchtime you would immediately ask for a Chip Bucket, and be given half of a small uncut loaf. Whilst waiting in the queue we used to pull out all the white bread inner, if you were really hungry you would eat this in the queue. When it was time to be served the Chippy lady would fill the now hollow, bread crust 'bucket' with chips and gravy... If you weren't so greedy that you had already eaten your 'middle', you could dunk it in... No-one seems to do them anymore...

I love the half pizza suppers you get. They are so bad for me but I do love the taste. You lot are making me crave chips now, Im starving and having to wait for OH to get home for tea
I should maybe step away from the food forum before I start to dribble all over this computer.
