Net Curtains and Big Chips 5th December 2007

It makes me hungry just to think about it.

I'd passed by many times, and then came across a review of it on Russell Davies' Egg Bacon Chips and Beans blog. It looked quite cute from the outside, and he raved about the chips, so I hoodwinked my wife into a Saturday morning trip on the way to pick up our car from round the corner - after a disappointing meal at Snows on the Green the night before.

It was magnificent. Partly because of the decor - wood cladding/panelling outside with a 50s style sign, net curtains (white and fresh) in the huge windows, sticky rubbery carpet inside and 50s colours that are almost fashionable again. It's still got a local working class vibe, but the staff and the customers were very unchippy - unlike the food: a perfectly cooked chip mountain.

It laid me out for the rest of the day, but it was worth it. Majestic gluttony.
