Best Chippy?
« on: 17 October 2010, 00:52:03 »

Just telling someone of a child hood visit to a chippy.

My Gran lived in Langley Park and I will never forget the visit one year where Dad took me to the chippy.  Really old range, and fired by coke, and everything was cooked in dripping.

Never forget the taste of them, sadly not many chippies cook with dripping these days because of the high flash point and cooking temp.

I doubt there'll be many chippys from 'down south' offered as contenders. As Peter Kay commented re a southern chippy .... 'as tha' nowt moist?  ;D No (steak) puddings, gravy, mushy peas etc etc  ;D   ;D
