Parmo in Glasgow?
- Thread starter V4NT0M
- Start date
Literally everyone I know from the North East calls them Parmos. Infact when I've been there, everyone ordering called them parmos. I called it a parmo when I orderderd. It's definitely a Parmo.

I have been working in Glasgow past few months and they like to have battered deep fried pizza
The sausage supper you always get two sausages
Pizza Crunch's are amazing.
and why would you only get 1 sausage with a supper? that would be like a kid's meal.
Roll and fritter is basically the staple of every kid with a chippy near them. I'm in the mood for a Pizza Crunch and a chips, cheese with gravy now.
I dread to think how many calories are in a munchy box, must easily be 4000 odd in the large one however they do vary from place to place in size and quality.
Who let the food snob in?Eat better food.
Such nasty people in this country...
I'm not sure how much of a bearing a persons takeaway food choice has on how pleasant or unpleasant they are to be honest.
Yeah they do, I'm from Gateshead and I say Parmo
You mustn't be north eastern enough. Definitely around here everyone says Parmesan and all the takeaway outlets have it listed as a Parmesan.

When I was working in Spain in in 1979 we used to eat a veal and cheese escalope with a plum tomato sauce at lunch. Served with a spanish salad on the side it was sublime.
With an egg and rice starter, a glass or two of red and a creme caramel to finish, it began the siesta in the right way. Back to work at 4pm through 9pm though.

The fish & chips there are fantastic, done in proper dripping, in a coal fired fryer, seriously good.
Sounds lush. Veal/pork/chicken escalopes with tomato sauce are lovely. I wouldn't deem it totally unhealthy but I suppose the cheese/bechemel sauce takes care of that in this instance..
But what's an egg and rice starter?
I had a deep fried pizza in Scotland last year but although still good, I was slightly disappointed to learn it was just a frozen pizza deep fried. Some reason the pizza shop didn't deep fry their own freshly made pizzas.
They did deep fried Mars and Snickers too, and also sold Rennies

Easier to dip and not overcook something that is frozen I'd imagine.

Cooked rice, onion and garlic pressed into a teacup and inverted onto a soup plate, a lightly poached egg placed on top and a drizzle of any sauce around the plate.

I literally couldn't be more north eastern! Any further north and I'm Scottish. Any further east and I'm speaking Dutch!
Sounds like you are more south then me then.
Sounds nice enough, does it have a posh name?Cooked rice, onion and garlic pressed into a teacup and inverted onto a soup plate, a lightly poached egg placed on top and a drizzle of any sauce around the plate.

Sorry pal, everyone I know in the Boro calls them a parmo.
Dunno where you've been living.

Also the lack of pics is disappointing.
