Fish and chips in ED

Just the burger. Dunked it in the batter then stuck it in the deep fat fryer. Had it with chips in the restaurant. They added salad which i couldnt work out if that came as standard with their burgers or whether they were being ironic.

Next time get them to make you a burger (complete with cheese, salad, sauce and bun), stick a couple of cocktail sticks through it, and batter and fry the whole thing.

Sounds a trifle unhealthy. Heres a photo of my battered and deep fried burger from last year. Chaps at Fish Chips and More came up trumps...


ETA: Seeing photo reminded me that they asked if I wanted salad. Photo speaks for itself really...

You'd be right at home in NZ, HMB - that's a standard menu item in a NZ chippie, known as a meat pattie. Delicious. Also worth a try is a chop suey pattie, ditto paua pattie. The rule of thumb is that if you put batter on it, it's a pattie, anything is fair game.


No wonder I was fat.

I miss the menu of a Scottish Chippie, and it sounds like NZ has a similar set up. Mr P will be familiar with L'Alba D'oro no doubt. King Rib Supper, salt and sauce...

It's reminds me of school spam fritters from back in the day.

YAY! Spam fritters!! Now we're talking!


ETA: Is there a fish and chip shop in ED which does chips which are crispy outside and soft inside? I can't bear soggy chips :(

    • No they aren't. You're coming across as a smug, superior liberal, and that's what old fashioned voters (labour, Cons and now Reform) hate. That 'the deplorables' 'they're all ignorant racists' line is what's driving people away from the traditional parties and towards Reform.  You're as guilty of looking back as Labour. This is a new, post-europe world and we all need to come to terms with that, make do with what we have, and move forward.       
    • I have sympathy with any voter, anyone, who having witnessed the last 14 years and then Labour in the last year and wonders just how can things be this bad  unless a) they voted for brexit b) voted Tory after 2010 c) is thinking of voting reform  because anyone who thinks reform won’t make things a thousand times worse after voting for the previous?  It is they who are the problem.  They are the reason the country is in the doldrums with an embarrassingly-timid Labour government  Specifically Chris mason - a not very bright right leaning stooge - large part of why bbc news has become grok-level slop  
    • In what way? Maybe it just felt more intelligent and considered coming directly after Question Time, which was a barely watchable bun fight.
    • Yes, all this. Totally Sephiroth. The electorate wants to see transformation overnight. That's not possible. But what is possible is leading with the right comms strategy, which isn't cutting through. As I've said before, messaging matters more now than policy, that's the only way to bring the electorate with you. And I worry that that's how Reform's going to get into power.  And the media LOVES Reform.
