Yum. Usually cod, chips and mushy peas. Loads of salt and vinegar. Maybe a saveloy to share with dh or not

Edinburgh chippy sauce is horrible! It's like brown sauce mixed with vinegar. I always get funny looks when I turn it down in the chippy. What's wrong with normal vinegar?!!?

I need answers!!!

What are roe, saveloy, king rib, rock and orange chips?

I'm in Manchester and our chippies are quite standard. I've only known a select few offer a choice of fish.

I usually get either sausage or fish or a pudding, with chips, mushy peas and either gravy or curry sauce. And as if that doesn't out me as the fatty I am, I sometimes get a scollop to when I just need lovely comforting carbs.

There are so many things I've never heard of on this thread, I'm weirdly fascinated!

Rock, roe, battered pizza/chips, King rib supper, white pudding, where are all you ppl from? Because I want to live there.

I'm Lincolnshire and chippies are incredibly dull here. Fish, sausage, tiny selection of pies and if you're lucky maybe fishcake. They also don't serve chips in trays with the sauce on it. You get chips in wrapping and sauce in a pot Confused totally wrong IMO.

Yes, orange chips! Add that to my query list too.

We have chippy tea every Friday because DD doesn't finish Gymnastics until 7pm

DH has a Doner Kebab
DD has Scampi and chips or chilli con carne.
I have Cod, chips and curry sauce.

Last night DD had a battered creme egg just to try it. Most of it is now adorning my passenger seat.

I think I last had a chippy fishcake in the 90s...my dad used to get it for me despite knowing I hated it. The bloody things were grey mush on the inside and tasted of nothing but bad mashed potato.

I think they do orange chips up the road from me - chips that are battered first in a paprika batter?

Orange chips are divine!! I think it's a midland thing. They're dipped in a sort of batter before frying, but it's not a crunchy batter. I really mellow savoury taste. The chippy I used to go to with my dad used the same batter for the fish and it was so much nicer, not all greasy and hard. It's the only thing I really miss!!!

King rib is pork mince mixed with barbecue sauce, battered and deep fried.
Supper just means with chips.
I'm in Scotland, near Glasgow.

Ok rock is just another fish like cod and haddock etc but it's got one long big bone down the middle and has a "meaty" flesh.
Roe is fish eggs in batter (sounds filth but I love it)

Rock is also known as rock salmon, aka dogfish from the shark family. A lovely firm flakey white fish that can be cut into steaks like salmon, hence the name.
