Chippy for £1??

Chippies are few and far between around here and the best one is a couple of miles away run by an Italian family. It’s worth the drive to get a meal.

People still say supper?

Looks more like a red pudding (albeit, before it's battered) than a sausage. Haven't actually found a chippy in Glasgow that does red pudding. Battered white pudding is also awesome, but equally as rare in Glasgow.

Mmm, might get a chippy tonight.

What do you call it? Just 'Sausage and chips', 'Haggis and chips'?

strange statement, I'm sure there are plenty?

You'd think that wouldn't you?

I can only think of 2 places that do proper fish and chips, and they're awful.

Anyone guess what we are having for dinner?

Haggis?

Or

Potatoe fried in fat?

"Fish Supper" is what traditionally was the term used for a dinner consisting of a type of fish with chips. It's still a popular term used by Chippies, which is why they are obviously advertising it outside.

Personally though I've always said "I'm going to have Fish and Chips" rather than a "Fish Supper".

Same as you. Going the chippy, chippy tea.

But when you're at the chippy, you say 'Fish supper' please. Never heard anyone call it a 'chippy tea'.

You go to the chippy, to get x supper.

My brother, and I can only assume it's an Aberdonian thing, calls a chippy a chipper.

I've never gone into a chippy and asked for x supper.

Must be a Scottish thing. I worked in a chippy for about 3 years, doing all the jobs at one point, and the majority of folk asked for a supper.

I see you live in London. Where abouts are you talking about? I am keen to find a decent chippy around here.
