This or that? What's your preference ...

[linguafood (Natascha)]

Depends on my mood.

I’ve never had fish & chips at a chippy shop in England.

Then, depending on the quality of the shop, you have missed a real treat. Or not.

A few have eat-in facilities but most are takeaway only. Which is fine for the classic night time takeaway. F & C eaten from the paper as you walk home after a long night in the pub.

Or, as we did for lunch last week… F & C from the village chippy and eaten in the Memorial Park. Dunno if there’s new owners or simply new staff but this was a very greasy experience, with the batter on thr fish not really crisp and the chips needing longer in the fryer. We may not be back in a rush.

Hot dogs or burger?
Hot dogs, I think. Burgers I really need to want, as it’s a heavy meal. Hot dogs I can eat at any time.

Potato or tortilla chips?
Potato chips. Second only to fake orange cheese popcorn as the best mindless TV/movie snack food.

Beef or pork ribs?
Pork ribs

Fried rice or chow mien?
Chow mein, if it’s Cantonese styled pan fried noodles.

Burritos or tacos?
Fish tacos for the win.

Fries or tater tots.
Fries. I stopped eating tater tots in grade school, and that was because I no longer had them in school lunches. Good riddance.

Donuts or croissants?
French croissants.

Milkshake or float?
Lactose intolerance is telling me to give both a hard pass.

Chicken wings or Fish N Chips?
Chicken wings.

Chocolate cake or cheesecake?
Cheesecake, if it’s one of those super light Japanese style ones. Otherwise, pass on both.

The coop used to sell something quite like them as ‘mini potato rostis’ although they’ve stopped. There are something like them sold at Morrisons (or once upon a time were) but I can’t remember what they were calling them and I also know you don’t particularly care for them (Morrisons).

@Hunterwali

I also know you don’t particularly care for them (Morrisons).

The late father in law used to like Morrisons and I’d take him for his weekly shop. At that point, he could get about OK so I just used to go to the caff for their very reasonable full breakfast. Last time I went to do our own shopping, we ddi self-checkout (as the queues for the main checkouts were horrendous) and it was awful. Machine kept failing to scan and we had to keep getting someone to clear it. Vowed not to return.
