Lite Bite thanks not too hungry

>>18641612
i mean it looks like the jumbo is only a little bit more than the regular or lite so i'll have a jumbo with chips but cone chips because they're a lot cheaper and i have a lot of fish.

i'm an american from texas, and that's what I would order. I would also use the malt vinegar.

I don't want any fucking mushy peas that shit is nasty.

>>18641612
I got a chip barm, 2 battered sausage and a scallop(aka a smack). Ya seethe?

>>18641632
They do good fish!

>>18641612
I'm wanting the UK to sink into the ocean

>>18641612
where the FUCK are chicken and mushroom pies

>>18641679
Where the fuck is the pey wet

What a shit house fish and chip shop.

>>18641713
Thats not a variety you generally get in a chippy

>>18641722
dont try and lie to me
ive got them from many chippies over the years
bet if i go down the road they have them

>>18641724
Not round here they dont. It's meat and potato round these parts as the main go to pie

Wtf is steam pudding

>>18641732
its like an upside down pie thats steamed, usually steak and kidney

>>18641612
Jumbo co, large chips, peas (had better be mushy, large sausage for my dog, beef steak pie to put in fridge for later.

>>18641732
A steamed steak pudding made with suet pastry

>>18641735
Always mushy peas. Don't think I've ever seen a chippy offer anything but mushy peas. If it was in a pub youd get an option of mushy peas or garden peas.

>>18641745
just found it a bit suspect they didn't specify, granted its pretty much always mushy but still I'd be pissed if they weren't

>>18641737
>>18641733
Proper baby's yed

>>18641737
That's the nastyist shit I've seen this week and you should feel ashamed

>>18641771
>pie
fine
>upside down pie
AHHHH FUCKING DISGUSTING REEEE

>>18641774
It might be Australian stuff

>>18641771
Then there's something wrong with you. Steak and kidney pudding is one of all time great foods

>>18641737
>>18641733
That's fucking disgusting

>>18641793
Yeah but STEAMED bro?

>southern prices

For me it's the Norf. Pattie butty and jumbo sausage

>>18641612
Jumbo cod extra gravy, small curry chip, and a cheese and onion pie luv xx

>>18641865
Medium haddock, 3 spam fritters, curry chips

>>18641612
I dont know what a "chip barm" is but I'll try that out with a side of pud pud.

>>18642654
chips on a bun.

>>18642673
That seems good with a few beers

>>18642732
theyre actually great to eat before a few beers. and after.

>>18641865
lad a fish supper will cost you £10+ in the norf these days

>>18642820
£8.90 actually, just for the fish and chips.
£9.80 with a large curry sauce
i only know this because i ordered it a few weeks ago and threw it up a few hours later

>>18641695
scran

>>18641835
Its traditional how it is done with suet puddings for 100s of years . The pastry is soft and light this way. No different to when Japan steam a bun. The technique is using a bain marie. You put it in water and steam it for couple of hours usually.

>>18641865
Northern actually, its an established quality chippy so they charge bit extra but prices aren't far from the going rate

>>18642654
Chip barm shown here --->>>18641679

>fish and chip shops in the UK don't even sell burgers
jej and we were supposed to be a prison colony? sounds like we got the better deal

>>18642915
>fish and chip shops in the UK don't even sell burgers
do you just make lies up for fun or something ?

>>18642915
They do sell burgers. Just isn't on this menu , but people dont generally go to a chippy for a burger and lot only have an electric griddle like pic related instead of a flame grilled burner kebab shops use. So they aren't as good

>>18641612
i hope this is legit UK port shanty quality
not some US downtown restaurant

>large chips (i assume it comes with retardar sauce)
>gravy
>1 small sausage

>>18642967
its probably from a working class highstreet with no seating

>>18642977
This is actually correct

>>18643014
the best kind of chippie then

>>18642967
why would a US restaurant put its prices in english pounds?

>>18643044
theyre not very good with math so they created their own system
its confusing i know

>>18641612

what are cone chips?

>>18643050
imagine a half pint polystyrene cone full of chips

>>18643047
>so bad at math they made it even harder for themselves by having to convert it back to USD at checkout
genius tactic, i will now eat at this establishment

>>18643050
Pretty much >>18643062 but in a card cone for eating on the go. Some still use polystyrene cones

>>18641679
the fry sandwich thing still baffles me to the purpose. does the bread really do anything if you are bitting into fried carb? wouldnt it just detract from the crispyness?


it just seems like oatmeal in a springroll wrapper to me.

>>18643092
its cheap and it fills you up
theres nothing more to it, the butter and salt/vinegar probably helps

>>18643044
easily confuse americans to think they are paying less.

>>18643098
yah, but at that point. why not just have MORE fries.

you are just paying for less plus some breed.

>>18643106
nah you get a small portion on a bun so you only really pay 40pence for the bun or so (or at my chippy you do)

>>18643114
i guess, but I think id prefer an extra 40 worth of fries. unless is some particularly good bread or something.

>>18641612
>no calamari rings
>no crab claws
>no fish cocktails
>no tartare sauce

Disappointing, get me some potato scallops and three battered sausages with some tomato sauce.

>>18643092
>>18643106
For starters the barm allows for easier eating on the go. When done right, you got several complimentary textures and flavours. You got the soft bread barm, the hot chips, the salt and vinegar and cold butter on the barm. Its pretty substantial and hearty due to the barm so you tend eat it a bit slower and easily get full. Plus can put some sauce or even a bit of gravy or curry on it for something extra

>>18643132
an extra ten chips is gonna be more fulfilling than the bun

>>18643144
ok, i think that explains it a little more understandably in terms of experience. still seems weird that its a carb sandwich texture wise.

>>18641612
10 kids meals, ta

>>18643163
>still seems weird
putting chips on some bread confuses the American, meanwhile they'll happily scoff down a burger and a large side of fries without problem or thinking twice

>>18643397
yes. because the burger is at least made of different food groups. its not about health or anything, Its just I dont see the appeal of eating bread with fries. same as I don't see the appeal of eating buttered pasta in a bun. doesn't seem to add anything really.
its a starch on a starch.
like, maybe if you then added a meat or some vegetables, thats another story, I like turkey terrifics (post thanksgiving sandwich where you put the left over stuffing and turkey and cranberry sauce and mayo and some other stuff), but idk if id be into stuffing between two pieces of bread as much (which at least tends to have broth in it)

>>18643424
split hairs more

>>18643432
was I doing that?

bottom line: two carbs as the primary “thing” in a dish seems weird.

>>18641612
I'll have a 2 meat pies and and a large chips thanks love

>>18641612
Fish, chips and mushy peas simple as

>>18644170
You forgot beers

>>18641679
OI M8 WHERES YER BABBYS YED

>>18641735
I got a large sausage for your dog right here m8

Large chips and a saveloy, cheers m8.

>>18644492
You want a refund m8, looks like they sold you a small

>>18641865
They'd never call it a chip barm in the souf

>>18644966
butty erasure ; __ ;

>>18641612
Large fish supper with salt and sauce please ta

>>18644966
This seems odd. Ive heard bap, barm and roll used local to me but "muffin" would be oven bottom muffins. Like a barm but more firm on the bottom and has ring on top. Then itd confuse further with the English muffin or muffin cake. Likewise a "teacake" is already thing. That is like a barm cake but with fruit and spices

>>18645117
I've never heard butty used when referring specifically to a barm cake. A chip butty would be with standard sliced white bread. A butty is essentially a sandwich

chippies are the comfiest food

>>18645117
Nah its bullshit I live in Cumbria and everyone says butty or bun

>>18645331
I've heard they say "teacake" when referring to rolls in Wigan and some parts of Middlesbrough.

>>18645511
Never in Wigan. Theyd know a teacake as the thing with fruit and spices listed above. Itd be barm

>>18641679
A fucking french fry sandwich. You people are fucking weirdos.

wtf is this shit, jumbo cod tea? chips tea? gravy tea? heinz beans tea?

>>18644205
I got battered sausages instead for the meat . Maybe next time

>>18643439
>bottom line: two carbs as the primary “thing” in a dish seems weird.
Most normal people wouldn't be eating a chip butty on the regular so a dish of carb and carb can be a novel treat now and then. I'm sure there's plenty of food combinations out there that seem weird to you, people are different, cultures are different, get a chip butty in ya asap and you'll be the more cultured, worldly and better person for it.

>>18644966
>cornwall and the highlands don't know what a bun is
sad

>>18644966
A cob is different texture totally to a bun, it's harder, dark on the outside (slightly bitter flavour), lovely for Cheese and tomato butties or Chopped pork butties.
A barm I thought was larger than a bun and a roll a different shape. Chip barm out the chippy isn't some little burger bun thing.

>>18647668
DON'T COME BACK TO WIGGAN YA CUNT

>>18644938
It's alright bruv, your mum complains less when I stick it up her bum than when she's with Africans

>>18649269
Isn't battered chips a Wolverhampton thing?

>>18649330
nah I've seen them in Preston though. You got to asked for fries over marvin.

>>18649249
Bullshit you're describing a bilind, not a cob.

>>18649393
>fries
I'm from Birkenhead and I've never heard of that in my life you larping yank cunt. Over marvin means chips with triple gravy, not battered. What stupid "top 10 funniest Brit slang terms" did you get your bullshit from?

>>18649330
I've been to Wolverhampton and can confirm this, got them pretty cheap as well, only 1.80 quid.

>loose leaf tea section
>saffron bitters
>$279 per pound
>chamomile zinger
>$7.49 per pound
>they look the same
Thanks for the tea idiots, for bourgie nonsense it's actually not that bad.

>>18643424
You should try making one yourself. I too thought it seemed weird, but the textures and tastes of the fries and bun are different enough that it somehow works. Like the bun is fatty and soft from the butter, while the fries are salty, and sweet or sour depending on if you add ketchup or vinegar.

>>18643106
Textural differences, butter/sauce/vinegar, it just kind of works.

A chip sandwich is lovely, I don't even get all the outrage from any country. What's so strange? That it hasn't got all sawdust spices on it. I can eat spicy food, this is about appreciation of two lovely things fried potatoes and bread, oh butter, margarine or mayo, tomato/brown sauce too of course, whatever you're in the mood for.
For me a sandwich or butties as I'd call them, almost any meal I'd eat in the home, except roast dinner I'd have slices of bread at the side to make butties. I don't get the whole bread needs to always be toasted for a sandwich either. I'd only do that for English breakfast, fired/boiled eggs certain tuna dishes and that's not even most of the time.
Chippy prices are weird if they're charging 1.30 for some gravy or curry sauce though.
>>18643106
Chippy chips aren't like fries for a start, if you're out and about you're not going to be making sandwiches, but if you buy chips to bring home then = butty fodder. have some ham or whatever with them. Niccccee

Not even a fair comparison, I would demolish the top one 7 days a week but wouldn't touch the beans and toast. Not because it's British, just because it's shit.

>>18649839
I'm not him but beans on toast is one of those things, you mightn't eat it often but when you're in the mood for it you only want that, suppose that's kind of what you're saying, but you'd never try the beans on toast with some cheese and brown sauce, you'd miss out on a simple little dish that there is a reason why it's a thing.
It goes down very well, like sometimes you just want egg and chips that type of craving.
I don't know what the top one is but that seems heavy to have 7 days a week beef and oily looking cheese? Why, Looks heavy that.

>>18649839
>t. Never actually eaten beans on toast just seen it spammed on r/food as LE BAD!

I do crave scallops from the chippy right now looking through this thread. Once in a blue moon I have them, Mmm

>>18649830
Shouldn't this say slop, Jew and anything from Asia?

>>18641612
Jumbo cod and large chips, a battered sausage, peas, gravy, both types of curry, a buttered barm cake and a can of dandelion and burdock.

>>18641612
Oh er seen as your buying, I'm have Scampi, a cod, chips, curry sauce and special fried rice if they do it. Oh peas as well for with the fish. Thanks anon.

>>18649307
Bloody hell, you're a necrophile too?
