Used to go in our local when we was kids and ask for scribbles. These were the bits of batter from the bottom of the fryer. Never had to pay for them, they was delicious, salt n vinegar etc.

Uncle Jimmy,s Chippy. All we had to do was take the battered sausage out of his track suit and light his cigar.

Scampi and chips each Friday evening and sometimes a pineapple fritter for desert.

Do other countries have fish and chip shops or is it a purely British thing? I've certainly not seen any while on holiday.

A music venue in New York offers 3 meal options one of which is Fish and Chips with Green Salad, Humus and a Soda ( ie: Hummus and a fizzy soft drink ).

I've seen a few chippes in Australia and NZ.

None in Japan though. :down:

Although I can make do by picking up a bit of tempura and making home made chips instead of rice. :thumbsup:
