The connoisseurs choice if you live in the Podsmead area of Gloucester. Also on that chippy’s menu is deep fried pizza, and… deep fried chips. My mate had the deep fried chips once – an almost inedible thick stodgy modge of batter and chips all in one big coronary-inducing lump
I remember having one of these in Bournemouth when I was at college. It was rough, 60p it cost, and it meant i didnt have enough for a battered sausage. Gutted
Anyone else had a chip pie? Chippie in south bridge used to do scotch pie cases which they’d fill with whatever you asked for- chicken curry was good, doner kebab if you were pissed, coleslaw if you were weird, that sort of thing. Chip pie was the obvious conclusion. You can’t actually get many chips in a scotch pie so they got the extra brown crunchy little ones out of the bottom of the fryer. MMMMMMMM chip pie
Mmm I fancy a chip pie now, or just a classic chip butty would do. WTF is a ‘wolfdog’? Kens Burger Van on the A38 south of Gloucester does a Cheesy Pig. Haven’t tried one yet due to his breakfast baguettes being the best £3.50 money can buy.
Iirc a wolfdog is a sausage wrapped in bacon, wrapped in cheese then battered. Locals might correct me I’ve never dared to have one!
Battered haggis is lovely though
Pizza crunch – well you couldn’t make a 99p Ross pizza any worse…
Battered haggis is my go-to for a chippy. black pudding if I know it’s a good one.
seosamh – guessing you’re west coast? Never thought we did them either till I found out the Kings Cafe in Glasgow does Mars bars. Honestly worth a try as it’s much better than it sounds.
