Not Just CURRY & CHIPS

[brotherbuzz]

I know that In and Out burger chain serves non frozen fries. Excellent burgers and fries. 5 Guys burgers is another chain that serves excellent fries and burgers and they have big bags of unpeeled potatoes on display in there stores.

Never been impressed with either place for either item. Both joints cut their own spuds but I find them, well, dull and not very crispy.

Most of the more notable chefs in the UK all say that the secret to perfect fish & chips (apart from the obvious quality and freshness of the fish) is down to the cooking medium;…And animal fats (lard) is the best option available. However I only know of a few places around the Grimsby/Cleethorpes/Hull area and a couple of top fish restaurants in Scotland that still cook it that way, oh and Rick Stein's places, obviously. Well worth a detour IMHO, but not to be noshed on a regular basis!

I was born in Grimsby!

Remember this chain? There used to be one in Penang in the Eighties! And a Wendy's at the end of Patpong!

I recall watching some UK chef on TV making the 'perfect chips', which was what he served up in his restaurant.

If I remember they got cooked 3 distinct times, starting with boiling and then fried twice...the final one being in duck fat.

 

Took bloody hours and not quite putting the chip pan on after getting home from the pub, which has killed many!

In reponse to a previous poster Mac and Burger king are the worst chips in the world absolute shite

I come from Scotland and we have real chip shops and real chips

Macs and Burger king are frozen shit and taste like it BTW their coffee is shite also

If you want real chips to go a chip shop in Scotland or anywhere in the UK fresh cut chips fried in fat

Not good for your heart but delicious can also get fried haddock or a deep fried mars bar LOL

Moral of this tale is if you want good chips go to a chippy if you want good coffee go to Costa or Starbucks

Why go to Thailand to eat fish and chips ?

There is beautiful fresh Thai food available Tom yung khun or gang kia wan spring to mind

Even from the food carts the food is good

Just been here with missus and both had large cod & chips, curry sauce & mushy peas, bread &butter & 2 coffee's.

All of it very very tasty, when it came out it looked a small portion but the fish although not big was 3/4"-1" thick and I only just managed it all.

Not cheap by any means, our bill was 740B but everything is priced clearly so no surprise.

I do think the chips are overpriced and they are frozen, what they call steak fries in the US & Canada but still tasted good.

We'll worth a visit.
