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 :(

    • I understand that, but I can't really grasp how it works in practice, but never mind 😵‍💫
    • It's local independent shops supporting one another.
    • Adding my recommendation for Niko too. Found his number on here and he came out at short notice on a busy weeknight to help us with a kitchen sink issue that had flooded our kitchen that day. Really helpful, responsive and went out of his way to fit us in and help us out. Very reasonably priced too - would thoroughly recommend!
    • Looks like it! Though according to the OP, they are "golden, hand-crimped parcels  packed with flavour" 😀 I don't understand. Admittedly my brain is functioning at a very low level at the moment. Does that mean various local shops get together and agree to offer a discount to anyone who shows them a receipt from one of the other ones dated the same day? I can't see what's in it for either of them, unless people shop somewhere they wouldn't otherwise have done just to get the discount. Is it for vaguely  linked things, say cheese from a cheese shop, wine from another shop? Showing my age there.  And then suppose it's always the same shop which people go to second to get the discount? What's in it for the first shop? People go there in order to get the discount in the second shop?
