Do they serve battered chips anywhere else in the country or is that a Midland thing ? Not all chip shops do them but some do, riddled with grease they are....ugh !! wtf?? battered chips?? I'm a 'midlander' and ive never seen battered chips in my life! We've always had chips and gravy in our chippies, as long as i can remember! F'KIN GORGEOUS!! i cant understand what the southerners problem is with it - they have mash potato with gravy, roast potatoes with gravy, so why not fried potatoes with gravy? The gravy has to be nice though - and the chips need to have salt and vinegar as well! Im getting hungry now!! |

Chips and gravy is quite nice, when the gravy's decent, but I must admit I prefer chips with melted cheese and strips of bacon ;D Now that sounds even better than chips and mayonnaise - I'm starving now! It really is as good as it sounds - just be careful not to have it too often, I swear I can physically feel the difference in my arteries after eating it! |

I have no problem with it mate, just wondered if it's been there from day one etc., I think the chip shop is an institution up North, certainly the impression I get speaking to my Mancuian mate. |
