Okay, WhitbyJet, us Yorkshire lasses must stick together! Yorkshire forever!
My brother, who now lives near Reading, always works out his visits to me to include a Wednesday evening 'cos that's when the chippie van comes to the village. He can't stand the ones they have local to him - thick, orange, undercooked batter!
Also we have amazing fish 'n chips in Hawes and Leyburn. I know at least 5 good ones in the Leeds area - not too impressed with Harry Ramsden's any more - and there's a great one in Hunmanby, south of Scarorough. As well as Whitby.
Lovely light crisp batter from all of them, and you can always get cod - with all the skin removed. They leave the skin on the bottom of haddock, which to me is a waste of good batter! :lol:
The chippie van parks outside my house every Wednesday evening, and I've only had them 4 times in 3 years! (not counting the few occasions when my brother is here). Which I think is amazing self-control 8) . I have cod and mushy peas with a small chips, and my BG is always back below 6, 2 hours later.
I think the moral is, fish and chips is/are a treat, not a regular meal. If I ate them every week my BGs would creep up over time.
