Members Melanie Posted July 27, 2006 Members Share Posted July 27, 2006 If you'd bothered to read the link... I don't eat beef anyway (doctor's orders - red meat, wine and caffeine are all banned), but traditionally the chip butty is supposed to be cheap. Adding meat to it would make it expensive.

I did read the link I still think it's missing a hamburger. At least, that's what we'd do with our burgers in the 'states sometimes; throw some fries/chips in I do like the idea of curry, though. There's a pub in San Diego that makes decent curry fries I was expecting Indian curry, though. It was Asian style brown curry instead. I'm guessing Hong Kong inspired? I still think some good makhni sauce (aka buttered chicken) with fries/chips would taste great. I've gotta try this one of these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like... a hamburger with the frie... errr chips +1. The basic make-up of a chip butty is chips sandwiched between two slices of buttered white bread, doused with salt and vinegar. Variations however, do exist including tomato ketchup, British chip-shop curry sauce and gravy. It's like...one giant, dry carbohydrate with no staying power...ready to suck all your water out and leave you hungry in 30-45 minutes. OK, ketchup, curry sauce or gravy would wet it a bit, but still. Seriously, I'm trying to figure out why you'd put fries on bread without at least something like, say, melted cheese...

It has succeeded marvelously in getting French youth and the occasional employed adult to chow down on McD's. I'm not kiddin', McD patrons are on the rise over there, as are the waistlines...

Members Zamfir Posted July 27, 2006 Members Share Posted July 27, 2006 Oh, and I'm thinking of smuggling a microwave over there so that I can hum the Marseillaise while I reheat certain beverages. Going to be tough to be there at the right place and time to catch fruno passing through, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never even heard of tomato bap and have no idea what he's talking about. I'm sure I wouldn't like it though - I hate tomatoes in any form. I also don't like Oxo and don't eat beef. Yorkshire pudding though - food of the Gods! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
