'Chipper' food

imme

Do you like food from the chip shop.
I rarely go to the chip shop
I got some ray (fish) for dinner
Given its quality I was convinced why I don't go to the chipper much

It was horrible
It was the size of a shoe but was mostly inedible

Yeah. Mostly after a few pints of Guinness. I get a fish 'n' chip with garlic dip, or else maybe a gravy, peas & chip, with a half pounder. Good scram!

Chips!

Loads of salt and vinegar please.

Stick your finger tip into the corner at the end of the bag and get the last crispy vinegar soaked chip.

Proper malt vinegar, that stains the chips.

Away with the distilled and watered down nonsense, that just washes the salt of the chips.

Hande hoche!

Preempting the Corkonians by mentioning KCs.

Local Turkish chipper cooks everything in veg oil as opposed to lard. Chips are pretty crispy and dry, like you'd make them at home. The bag isnt soaked in grease. Generally not nearly as stodgy as the fare at your typical chipper.

This is all stuff I reiterate to myself when I'm chowing down on a dirty quarter pounder n' chip!

Because chips are always congregating in a large group. They aren't solitary. Like sheep. You never heard anyone say; "Look at all the sheeps in that field there"

Surreptitious

These threads always make me hungry.

Yes.

I like eddie rockets but am not a fan of fast food generally. Too much salt; no substance. That said, our local Turks and Paki's do excellent chips but i don't eat their chicken or burgers. I'd marry their kebabs though.

The plural of a sheep is sheep. The plural of a chip is chips.

Chipper wouldn't be my first choice if I was getting a takeaway, I usually lean towards pizza, grilled chicken burger with onion rings (which essentially is chipper okay but the place near me is way too good to just be that)

Anyways, I do love a nice taco chip. The works, mince, pepper, mushroom etc.

Or a bag of chips with salt and vinegar, with ketchup does me nicely!

gone mad for fresh onion rings though. Don't know what restaurants etc that have onion rings on their menu are doing with their pre packed- frozen ones, doesn't exactly take that long to throw together some flour and water and deep fry em.

What chippers still use lard?

My usual is a chicken burger and 2 battered sausages, no chips. I get them from one particular chipper. The other 2 chippers near me don't do the battered sausages right.

Doner Kebab tray with loads of lettuce onions and mayo from the local

willmunny1990

Like it a bit too much to be honest!

I love a good burger, you often find the best burgers hidden away in greasy spoons in little villages/towns.

I usually only go for the burger but most of these places will throw in a nice shake of chips to go with it, all drownded in salt and vinegar!

Man I love a good kebab..
Mounds of spicey doner meat, lettuce, onion, garlic sauce, chilli sauce, all wrapped up in a garlic naan... Pack that into ya... Then shyte it out the next day.

Don't think many of the chippers use animal fat these days. Various vegetable oils.

If you keep eating like that , you'll lean too far one day and fall over.

I used to like the odd visit to the chipper. They've gone to hell though. The food costs the same as it did 15 years ago, but the quality has taken a nose dive. The vast vast majority of them are buying the same shíte off the same supplier. Lads raving about one chipper being better than the other are talking through their hat.

Places like Bunsen, Super Miss Sue etc have replaced them as the place to go for a treat. Even Supermacs is better than your local 'Italian' chipper these days.

Kebabish in Enniscorthy do a kebab that you could use as a baseball bat and its yum.
For a small enough town we have far too many takeaways though.

Ya, but the food in that chipper is shíte. They are all competing on price with the local chinese serving complete shíte as well. Everything is deep frozen. There's almost nowhere cutting their own chips these days, or battering fresh fish before it goes into the fryer. Unless you go to somewhere like Bunsen or Super Miss Sue.

No Italians, no chipper

My dinner tonight in the pic.

To be fair, the English do proper fish and chips, not like the weird frozen squares we get in Ireland (unless you're near a Burdocks, McDonaghs etc).

I haven't eat in chippers much in Dublin lately, but a mate lived near Stillorgan, and the chipper around the corner from him had damn tasty proper chips.

There's four that I'd know of (1 in my home town, 2 in the nearest large town, and 1 in the town I live in now) that cut fresh chips, batter fish, batter sausages blah blah blah.

G'way with your poncy Bunsen.

About once a fortnight for me. Usually a snackbox and cheeseburger, or chips curry and a Quarter pounder.
Was in McDonald's last Saturday for the first time in a long time. Had to make 3 trips to the counter. Large big mac meal, then 2 double cheeseburgers and twisty fries, then a caramel Sundae. I'm convinced there's something in the food that tells your brain you're still hungry.

One of my local chippers does an offer on Wednesday's. €5.50 for a sea fresh cod and chips.A proper lump of a fish and loads of chips.You'd nearly feed 2 people with it.I don't know how anybody could eat those square fish yokes.

Every Friday, I have a cheeseburger and chips at Supermacs.

What's that green rubbish and why is it all over the chips..

Day Lewin

Ravenacious now. Thick chips with salt-n-vinegar, slab of white fish in batter. Onion ring.
Best food in the world for a cold walk home if you've missed the last bus. And no washing-up!
Our street food: perfect.

Don't mind the mushy peas but don't understand having tea with it. A can of coke / orange is my preference.

If you order a fresh cod in any chipper you'll get fish like that. You just don't know how to order food.
