Curry batter buns


Church street chippy( next to the jacksons) 25p in the year 1990. Little owld ganny who served used to chuck a couple of chips in there n'all. Lush.

Yes
I was about to post exactly this. Next door to Dart taxis.

That is my memory of them as well, a few chips put in on the sly.

My Mam used to send me up on a Friday night when she got in from the Bingo.
 
Silver Grid on Sea Road was the best, no question
Aye, mind for me it was a tie with Church Street chippy in Roker. The curry was lovely. Both chippys did massive curry battered buns and unlike some chippys who used to dip the bun only in the curry, these chippys poured loads of curry on them.

When I was about 19 years old, a lad I worked with said he was walking past Church Street chippy the night before night as some clubbers from The Barbary Coast nightclub were in there. He said that a lass and a lad who were drunk, were stand up shagging, up against the wall at the side of the chippy and the lad was holding his wrapped up bag of chips under his arm pit while in action. :lol:
 
Hole in the wall, Grangetown, c1989 15p. The non deep fried version. Were tremendous.
Bloody hell ,that place brings back memories. Jimmy Hayes and shaun hall took me there once after the hendon grange. Lovely. Didnt it used to do mad stuff like snails in garlic? Seem to remember that

Probably did. f***ing hell Jim Hayes, last time I saw him was the front page of the echo for fraud!

Shaun was a boy. Last time I seen him was in the hospital with his face smashed up, not that it bothered him mind .!!

He passed away last year mate. Had huntingtons disease for years,and he finally succumbed to it last summer. Very sad
 
Never had one. Intrigued.
Yes. Youve been given a Geordie version ☹️
:lol:
I think people underestimate how nice they were. The crunch of the batter when you bit through the soft bun,and the explosion of curry flavour filling your mouth. Yum
Sounds like you could soetvyour own? Get a tub of curry sauce, batter off your chips, buns, assemble.
The hut do battered buns filled with chips and curry sauce.
That version sounds liftin

I dont like the deep fried. Just a bun,with batter and curry in is better. I could make it myself,but it wouldnt be as good,the batter from chippies is lush

Aye that's what I'm on about. Not the perverts version.

What I'm saying is even if a chippy didnt do them they do all the things needed to self assemble (as some are saying you can't get them now).
