Chish and Fips

Post by stattointhailand » June 27, 2021, 7:24 pm

As it's got b all to do with Udon I put it in a new thread ......

Best Fish n chips I remember 1968 Brixham Devon, 1st floor eatery over the chip shop on Brixham Pier (so good I can still remember it over 50 years later)

Best take away I remember was a place outside Goole Football Club, although this was probably influenced by the sinking of about 7 or 8 large cans in the buffet between individual Cross & Donny, although In fairness I suspect any type of food would have been welcome

New people took over our local shop which had the same family owners for 3 generations.
Was well known all over Aus.
Now it's not worth a cracker, new owner changed everything.
Fish is like mud cakes dipped in lashings of some vegetarian style crappy oil.

Aaargh, prepare to be repulsed

Just read a local chippie back in the home country has started making vegan fish & chips.
The Starfish Bar in the high street very kindly prepared this vegan ‘vish’ and chips for me this evening.

The vish is made from banana blossom which is marinaded in a secret recipe and fried in a very tasty and crispy vegan beer batter. Having not eaten fish in over three years I can only describe the taste and texture as something resembling fresh mackerel. It was certainly nicer than I was expecting and the very friendly staff at The Starfish Bar told me it would definitely be on the menu if enough people were interested in this delicious plant based seafood alternative.

In fairness, it’s all kicking off by the vegan nazis that they don’t use different oil so it could be tainted with battered sausage, but still 😂

Chip shops are diversifying, what about this?

Best f & c I had was from Zanre's of Peterhead who won a national competition way back when I was playing stink-finger with Eva Webster on the school bus. Definitely something fishy there, eh?

Worst f & c was from Simon's on Jomtien. Slow-boiled in oil. My mate and I gave them to his cats and even they walked away. Absolute dross.

Mrs tam does a good job using her secret recipe beer batter that's based on tempura flour, Leo... and love.
