Gravy

[Amos Hames 2]

I might be a minority here but when I get Fish and Chips I don't put Gravy or Curry Sauce on them. Just wondering what everyone else does. If I'm in Yorkshire I'll always ask for Sraps as they don't do that much down south. Your culinary habits please

Just think Gravy makes everything too soggy

With Fish & Chips it has to be sore finger

 

[gothic]

Fish chips and mushy peas..... sometimes a sprinkling of tomato sauce.

 

[Bora Natty]

Okay, I've got to ask being in the colonies, what is sore finger?

 

[Graham]

It's what a Chinese takeaway would ask, sore finger? Meaning salt n vinegar.

 

[Bora Natty]

Oh, thanks Graham, that's what I would have..

 

[Roger]

Salt and vinegar

 

[Marianna]

Presumably malt vinegar?

 

[Roger]

Presumably malt vinegar?

Definitely

 

[Onslow]

Malt vinegar here too. The restaurant chain Long John Silver's got me started on that in the 70s.

Salt no vinegar and definitely no chuffin gravy who in their right mind would kill the taste of fish with gloopy gravy just doesn't make sense . I quite like English mustard but its too strong for the chips but a nice tartare sauce compliments the dish , speaking of which I was in Whitby two weeks ago and it had to be the Magpie Cafe for Fish and Chips but I was quite disappointed with the quality mostly the chips however, the biggest gripe I have was the waitress enquired if I would like tartare sauce . I said "Yes" and she plonked a huge plastic squeezy bottle on the table Unbelievable a restaurant that prides itself in quality resorting to nothing short of a fast food joint , just shocking.

I'm very surprised at this Cap. I always read good things about the Magpie. Mind you I've never been in there. My go to Fish and Chips in Yorkshire is Winking Willie's in Scarborough. Very good closely followed by one in Headingley. But being a southern Nancy lol I have some favourites in London.

Here, they would slop ketchup all over it..
