English Cuisine

Chip barms in Manchester too, if on a barmcake.
Chip butty is on sliced bread.
This is the way
There are many names for circular bread objects, all highly localised.
This is the source of Zacks problem.
Edwands problem is slightly more simple.
I think we can all agree that a chip butty is a marvelous sandwich and its truly something that the Yanks could totally fuck up.
Lol

Well Bens!, my Uncles and Aunties and extended family all hail from, or live round there and so far none of them are having that. Still a few to respond yet. I’ve never heard of it either and they are all Beeston and Hunslet area. Doesn’t get much more Leeds than that! Many fond memories of eating chip butties on saver white sliced shite, never once would you call a round piece of bread, no matter what it’s referred to, as a butty. Maybe that’s what posh people in Weatherby, Bramhope and Alwoodly call them? 
By Edwands thinking, that chips on a roll by default is a chip butty, that would mean if you put them on a bagel, (which although shit is still a type of roll) that would also constitute being a chip butty. That’s how ridiculous it is to suggest that. And ultimately that’s why Edwand gets bashed and run out of town everytime he leaves London.

Edwands problem is he got all his information off the internet rather than having any actual local knowledge on the matter. I wouldnt dream of versing him on the ins and outs of being repeatedly sexually abused by teachers at a private boarding school for boys and suggest he does the same regarding the nuances of a chip butty.
The state of this. Arguing over how fried potatoes should be put on fucking bread of all things. And getting pissy about what that nonsense is called. I’ve left this thread alone because English “cuisine” is an oxymoron, as much as it might be my comfort food, and discussing it seems like debating what snow tastes better - what’s the point. You don’t have to worry about anyone screwing up your disgusting “cuisine” because literally nobody is looking to your isles for culinary inspiration. I do find it hilarious that the best argument you all can make for gastronomic superiority is pointing out the absolute worst of middle American carnival foods (as if that’s normal) with a, “see, maaaaaate, we’re not that bad!” Is that it? Is that all you have? Rote Indian food? Overpriced tweezer and foam hilarity? An over-cooked Sunday roast with a shit cask bitter?
You can have all that hogwash. Debate it to death. ’Cause nobody else wants it.
jonattonyeah You don’t have to worry about anyone screwing up your disgusting “cuisine” because literally nobody is looking to your isles for culinary inspiration.
LOL @ Jonattan thinking he needs to point this out, like it will be revelatory to everyone here 
What a spasticunt.

Err hang on mate it’s a little more than a debate solely in here and it was Zackster who is clearly American who was the one enquiring about it all too. So people are interested and looking rather like someone searching for culinary inspiration.
Anyhow this should clear it up for thickets like smallmind anyway.

This is as accurate account as you will find. Note the use of right breads. "Never be tempted to use a roll '. Correct.
White sliced bread, butter, proper hand cut chippy chips. The end.

“Literally no one is looking to your isle for culinary inspiration ”
Someone needs to tell all the world class Michelin chefs and restaurants in the uk that. Ramsey being maybe the most famous chef in the world that his A game will not cut it in America. Even though they fall over their own tongues trying to get him there to show them how it’s done.

It’s pretty well known Edward ‘enjoys himself’ most nights.

Third world cooking has always been a passion of mine.
You live in exactly the right place then.
Give it a rest. Who cares about Ramsey or Michellin stars. The former is the chef version of Trump and the latter is a tire company. And how many of these fancy restaurants in Britain can actually be called British? I’d guess most are very not-British and those that are use French technique to cook British ingredients. How amazingly British! Who gives a fuck. If I’m spending 200+ on dinner, it better be good, you Michelin cunt. Keep clutching pearls over food you’ll never eat out of some weird sense of comradery, Dermo. I care about a good Tuesday take out for $10. And we’re good here with that here in the terribleness that is America. What I also know is that we don’t need British bellends forcing potatoes and truffle oil into absolutely everything.
As for Dave, boring as ever. Never anything to do or contribute other than constant negativity. Never throws his balls out on the line; just takes a knife to what others say. Maybe it’s time to getting a willing lay, Dave? Or are you out of time?

What a load of old bollocks. I give away loads on this board, from trabs to music to my culinary choices, to things about my daily life, knowing full well that people will often take the piss… but still do it anyway.

I love that Dave has abused smallman for bagel-gate, and yet is the most pedantic mofo when it comes to Chinese food.
