At long last my job here is finally done. I have been searching a long time for decent rock & chips - and the time has finally come at Shoreditch Fish & Chips. Totally off the charts - poached perfectly in the heart of London, Brick Lane territory. Finally, great fish and chips and with no skin on.
Very happy to have found this place at long last.

Now that's what I'm talking about DJ everything was spot on from the peas, chips and even the chip butties had me drooling. The rock, my favourite by the way even though I can't seem to get it in Cardiff was on point it looked great and I swear I was eating that with you, well done.

@gerardshort6149 Год назад

Sarah i live in Bristol . Nearly every week in the year i use to go fishing off Rhyl as i am from there the amount of dog fish and Bullhuss we use to catch we just chucked them back into the sea as nobody wanted to eat them . Also even fished off Holyhead same thing as well Sarah . Also i haven't seen dogfish in fishmongers round hear either . As i can't see it being over fished unless they use it in fish fingers now lol.

@sarahjones7383 Год назад

@@gerardshort6149 Thanks Gérard, I really enjoy rock but it's just not as popular as it once was which is a shame but I shall keep looking

@thelmabrindley2369 Год назад

Yesssssssssssss, we got the Darren John "Face" Top class

@wormsnake1 Год назад

Rock ‘n’ roll meets rock ‘n’ bone!!😂. A lovely clean plate of food. That fish fell off the bone with surgical precision DJ. I think the kids would enjoy it just for that!! Also you can’t beat a chip barm or butty!! You take the simple pleasures and turn it into a visual treat. No histrionics, just honest good presenting and food. You’re a natural pal. My old man to this day still uses the phrase “Champion”!! It also just about sums up you, this video and the channel. Every time one of your videos drops it’s like a new episode of a favourite tv show. I can’t wait for the Tenerife episodes in a few weeks time.🥊. Keep ‘em coming!! ❤️🙏🥊.x

@DarrenJohn Год назад

So very kind, thank you

@keithblainey2717 Год назад

Lovely to see that look on your face that says it all, everything comes to those who wait. Rock Salmon Dog Fish Shark family the skin is like course sand paper. Glad you enjoyed it.

@westies5350 Год назад

Darren john i get the drift that you may have come from humble beginnings and you now have made a good llife for yourself but you still remember your roots i can only admire that i love all of your vids they are all so informative you seem a genuine guy

@DarrenJohn Год назад

Thank you - appreciate it

@peterdawson5115 Год назад

Now that did look good Darren, I’m pleased you have found a nice place, great Fish and chips are a rare treat. 👍

@colindarroch4022 Год назад

A chip butty for sure yes. That looked really tasty rock and chips. Great vlog thanks Colin

@difflock5980 Год назад

The tall ship in aldershot, Does a cracking rock and chips, and cooked fresh to order.... Yours looked spot on D.J 👌

@julieann6611 Год назад

I think it’s about time you have a journey north, and come and sample some fish and chips!

@susannah1184 Год назад

So glad you found this one. Onwards and Upwards as the saying goes. xx

@jujulionesselsa1416 Год назад

That's great Darren that you got a pure white fish, compared to the horrible grey fish you got the other day. So happy it was "of the charts".

@paulpurves484 Год назад

I love watching your videos I always watch them from start to finish which is unusual for me long may you continue doing them.

@DarrenJohn Год назад

Glad you like them!

@101steel4 Год назад

Rock & chips plus a chip roll. A classic.

@simonkupa5041 Год назад

Good to see ur prices are just as high as in New Zealand 🇳🇿. No longer a cheap family meal by the beach anymore. 😢

@jemross2582 9 месяцев назад

Get yassell (your self) up to the toon country (Newcastle) for proppa fish n chips man Darren.

@jeffreyhodge5564 Год назад

Ps people out there ,a lot of fish hand chips shops used to open till 11p m ,fish supper on the way home from the pub ,long go Eat!

@raveninblack2505 Год назад

That fish looked so much better right from the off.

@madmags6018 Год назад

Not only Off The Charts Fish and Chips... But with Rock!! A great find Darren, well done 👏... Incedently was just wondering if that's where the title for the Fools and Horses spin off came from? Rock And Chips 🤔.

@karenwinstanley3852 Год назад

Looked very nice Darren nice n white fish not grey like the other rock you had other day ,brilliant Vlog 😃Xxx 💕

@TimK2646 4 месяца назад

That looked delicious. I would have chewed the bone as well. Used to visit the Ten Bells often in the 1990s.. Your Fish and Chips place is just 2 minutes walk from Lahpet Shoreditch ie Burmese Cuisine, Shame you never visited

@brewsterkits Год назад

That looks better, the last one looked like a battered alien 😂😂, nice place too

@michaelcampin1464 Год назад

Those mushy peas looked good too DJ

@johncorner9295 Год назад

I love rock d.j. im sure it will be better then last time.good luck..

@carbonsiliconnn Год назад

Rock & (chip) Roll. Looked amazing.

@joylaw3162 Год назад

Absolutely love rock and chips my favourite xx

@wetfishman1066 Год назад

it is a member off shark family. the skin, when dried you could use as glass paper. inedible. I am going there next time i am out. not had it for years looking like that!

@brianherring6393 Год назад

Certainly a big improvement on the last rock and chips you had I was watching Rick stein on TV. He said fish should always be cooked just under to stop it drying out

@johnlander1610 Год назад

One of the best rock and chips I ever had was in the chippy in Dachet Windsor in the early seventies brilliant, also it was a Friday staple at work staff canteen on Fridays

@johncolton2859 Год назад

I had never heard of Rock before you mentioned it. Looks taste!

@bl1374 Год назад

Normal services resumed Darren! I’m in Scotland and have only seen Rock on here. Looks tremendous all the same.

@craiglancaster1882 Год назад

There was article online the other day about the Rock N Salt chippy that was meant to be awesome

@tomkenyon3721 Год назад

Rock is a very London, South East fish shop thing and I've never seen it here in Scotland although I've eaten it often when I was living down there.

@Bill-01 Год назад

That looked good. I've never seen such a large selection of fish in a chippie. You don't see that up North It's usually Cod or Plaice and in some cases it just says Fish small or large so you don't know what it is 🤣🤣🤣 🐟🐠.

@liamt7589 Год назад

That was one of the best looking Fish I've seen you or Lee ever review Darren.. Oh yes 👌🏻

@DarrenJohn Год назад

Being a chef for several years, the best rock I have tasted so far

@Luluknights Год назад

When I was at St Thomas Hospital London, I tried the AMT Coffee and it’s delicious

@sarakirk9542 Год назад

Hey DJ! Hurrah Shoreditch Chippy came through in the end for you! Straight away a decent looking Rock, chips and mushy peas. Batter easily trumps on the last few you places you have been to. Decent size. Again shame about no bread and butter but hey ho you still made a chip butty. I’m a curry sauce girl so I would switch to that as a side but that’s my preference. Glad you can close the chapter on that issue now. Nice relaxing carefree video. Take care 😘👍🏻

@paulmajor6517 Год назад

Well done DJ, no more fish and chips then I take it. All the best.

@sainy375 2 месяца назад

Damn I just had fish and chips tonight haddock but frozen. I want your version 😢 looks so crispy

@anthonyobersteller1556 Год назад

Darren that Rock Salmon looked fantastic it used to be my favourite here in Canada if you are fishing for salmon and they catch a dog fish they club it to death and throw it back it never used for fish and chips coming to London in July and will try that fish and chips shop.

@paddy294 Год назад

That’s looked amazing. Thanks as always Darren

@collevelo49er Год назад

Glad you got there eventually Darren - I’ve never tried Rock but will give it a go if I come across it! 😊

@salster4891 Год назад

Mum and dad used to get us rock when we were kids as no small bones.

@lissilou55 Год назад

They were banging!! Good find well done. 😀

@nevillechant27 Год назад

Looked amazing mate

@countmurcielago9802 Год назад

That look good straight away never seen rock before 😊

@michaelcampin1464 Год назад

I must admit that Rock and Chips were always good. But my grandmother used to cook cods roe but the only way I could eat that was with lashings of HP, yes it had to be HP, sauce.

@jans1972 Год назад

Well worth the wait Darren. Looks amazing, beautiful chunky fish, so glad you found this place after the disappointments from before, onwards and upwards.

@duncankemp63 Год назад

Looked good from the get go. Cheers Darren.

@neilloveitt6233 Год назад

Looked really nice , rock is also known as bull huss 🦈

@johnwhyte1488 Год назад

Gold star there Darren, see the difference between that rock and the last one, amazing. Keep up all your good work pal.

@scotty6346 Год назад

That rock looked great Darren, I'm going to try some 👌

@cdeldn2012 Год назад

Good spot that, regulary order takeaway from there. Do a great plaice and chips!

@edwardjones7065 Год назад

Well Darren this looks great.

@guttersnipe3246 Год назад

Looks an absolute delight

@ashman4357 Год назад

Looked great that pal 👍

@samhenwood5746 Год назад

Loving the street art & those fish n chips looked delicious 🤤 Thanks DJ 🤗

@davidferguson9213 Год назад

Thank you!!

@wino-jc3zu Год назад

looked amazing

@TinaR622 Год назад

Success at last Darren, they looked good 😀👍

@alastairmckain4623 Год назад

You certainly looked like you enjoyed that compared to the grey stuff previously not a fish were familiar with in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

@jasonpetch9403 Год назад

Thanks DJ. Nice one!

@spektrum33 Год назад

That looked amazing , cooked to perfection..😊😊

@colinrattray816 Год назад

Great looking place and great looking fish and chips, I understand people moaning about the price, however, I’m not sure they fully comprehend the overheads that small business’s are having to pay just to open! We just don’t get Rock up here in NE Scotland but I’d be willing to try it!

@markgibbins4143 Год назад

That really looked delicious. I’ll have to visit that one. 👌

@liamwill83 Год назад

Looks lovely but for those prices surely they could stretch to Heinz sachets or even bottles on the table.

@ralphmark7040 Год назад

Can't wait! Going over in May from Texas.

@simoncooper913 Год назад

Skin on. Always. The rock looked great.

@mummyd1990 Год назад

Another belter of a review Darren mate,looks absolutely delicious,would love to try rock never had it ever,so will deffo keep an eye out for rock fish,cheers and keep safe and well always.

@kirathomsen-cheek9834 Год назад

This is probably TMI, but OMG I am drooling. That looked amazing! Thanks for the excellent review.

@jackiehodgson2261 Год назад

Fish looked perfect xx

@helgabullabong Год назад

That looked so delicious, I'm craving fish and chips now! Cheers

@lynnerowlands5052 Год назад

Hey DJ what a lovely plate of fish and chips. That fish looks fabulous and white and the batter was so crispy. A lot better than what you have had before. I could see that you enjoyed it xxx

@mikewilliams4499 Год назад

That truly looked the business. Nice crunchy batter. Solid chips. I feel like I have visited the whole of Brick Lane😉

@AJ-sv5qg Год назад

Info for you. Rock fish is known as Rock cod in many countries and is part of the cod family not salmon. Delicious when cooked right 👍

@stevefox5695 Год назад

You keep adding to my list :D

@markjones327 Год назад

Fresh Darren looks great mate 👌

@trudyjohnson7893 Год назад

Wow when you showed the beautiful white rock up close I could remember the actual taste when I used to always choose it. You are so good at blogging

@tonygriffiths2485 Год назад

Your last Rock and chips was average, good to hear this one was up to standard or off the charts. I havent had Rock for years, must try that place. Thanks :)

@brianstanton5844 Год назад

Blimey this takes me back as a kid. My old Mum always had Rock & Chips, looked great that 👍

@LordWarden76 Год назад

Coming from a fishing town, rock or Huss as we call it is my favourite too and that looked lovely. You can always tell if a piece isn’t too fresh as it smells of ammonia and boy does it smell! Love your blogs Darren, your honesty is really refreshing, ty.

@beverlyzimmermann5868 Год назад

I don't think we have rock in the States, maybe a different name, looks great

@kazzam8514 Год назад

That’s exactly how proper rock should be. I eat rock and chips the same as you. Gnaw the fish off the bone 😄 must be a Londoner thing, DJ. 👍

@alankiy2054 Год назад

Hi DJ. That rock and chips looked fantastic, lovely crunchy batter. Rock is so hard find in many Chippies maybe due lack of popularity over the obvious Cod and Haddock. Very underrated IMO. Bloomin lovely battered fish for change. Got be honest DJ I eat the jelly type bone. Nothing is left rare occasions I come across rock at Chippies. Like skate eat the jelly bones as I notice many don't. Nothing goes to waste. Great vlog as always Darren. Look forward next one as sadly these days no longer visit London even though my family were good old East Ender's. Stay lucky and fit and well DJ.

@sarahillingworth2718 Год назад

😋.. like the background music too 👍

@bathman6366 Год назад

They looked fantastic. Added to the growing list of places I'm going to try this Summer when I'm spending a month in the smoke with work.

@jaydee5640 Год назад

hi Darren so happy you enjoyed your meal at last the look on your face said it all xx

@keiranhyre750 Год назад

Food looks delicious

@leighl3712 Год назад

Looked delicious.

@markyoung5983 Год назад

I so happy that you chose Rock, it reminds me so much of the times I spent with my dad, we would go around the corner to the local fish and chip shop I always had rock so nice what a treat, sadly I have been unable to find that same taste now I live in the midlands, they either don’t know what it is or it’s been cooked badly so thanks for bringing back a great memory 😢😊

@courtneywilliams4143 Год назад

I remember that vid you did with rock a while ago on your bike. That was the first time I'd heard of it. Next time I'm down south I'm definitely going to try it. By the way this vid has got me counting the days till my holiday!

@DarrenJohn Год назад

🙏🏼👍🏼

@danpeters7850 Год назад

The batter on that fish looks absolutely spot on 100percent

@StevoRado Год назад

Check that box off! Proper Rock and chips. It looked delicious. Loved the video. Can't wait to see what's next. Cheers!

@traceycottrell5643 Год назад

Looked delicious that 🎉

@iskillcorn1 Год назад

I wonder why we don’t get Rock in the north? I’d never even heard of it! Although the spin off to only fools and horses was called rock and chips and now I know why

@DarrenJohn Год назад

Indeed

@shanewilliams3453 Год назад

That rock fish looked good mate im glad you enjoyed the meal Shane in Sydney

@chouselle1 Год назад

Rock was my mum's favourite. It's quite a "meaty" fish 😋.Another excellent Vlog Darren 👍🏿✨️

@davemulready Год назад

Nice One Darren👍.

@ChrisyC567 Год назад

You my friend have got me checking a rock out when next time possible being a foodie myself, but my favourite fish and chips at the moment is in Stoke Newington called Suttons fish and chips, let me treat you one day.? We will rock up on the bikes one weekend.. Take it easy fella.. Ps thanks for all your experiences in the restaurants.. I've got a city spice booked up very soon.. I will mention your recommendation 😉

@DarrenJohn Год назад

Fantastic, enjoy City Spice 🙏👍

@keithwells7892 Год назад

Now that’s more like it Darren….👍 Now you’ve got me wanting to try it again….! Sadly we don’t see it here in the East Midlands, but next time I’m down your way I’m going sample it..!😋😋
