In today's video we head to Swanage on the Dorset Coast, in search of Fish & Chips.
We've tried a couple of chippies on the seafront, but one we haven't visited yet on the channel is The Parade Fish & Chips. How will it fare compared to it's local rivals?

@robh8814 Месяц назад

For people wanting to do Day trips on the train. Dont forget about Group travel & travel after 930/10am for off peak fares during the week. If you are in London, then Brighton is usually the cheapest to get too (For coastal day trip)on Thameslink. Dont use Southern as its 2x as expensive as Thameslink & takes the same time(within a few mins). Bournemouth in 2 hr radius is always most expensive it seems. Kings Cross/Blackfriars/London/East Croydon is some of the main stations you can pick it up from.

You live and learn. Who knew you could get mushy pea fritters. Not that I will try them, I'll take your word for them, Greeno. As for scampi, virtually unknown over here in Canada, it seems like a dish made for a rip-off. Covering it in batter also covers up as to what it was before they dipped it. Today, they take any old shrimp, cover it, and call it scampi. And yes, Gary was right, ripe for rip off. Thanks for sharing. I hope the seagulls didn't attack, lol.

@GreenoEats Месяц назад

We did manage to dodge the seagulls 😂 Had to have eyes in the back of our heads though! Proper scampi is a real delight, but so hard to find these days.

@davidsworld5837 Месяц назад

Scampi £7.20 you can get a scampi and chips for that much so just getting 10 scampi you can get scampi a full bag for under £3. with proper taste. maybe they were cooked from frozen and all the water was the defrost while cooking. you may as well got a fish for that much. would be more filling

@GreenoEats Месяц назад

I agree, with the benefit of hindsight I should have ordered fish rather than scampi. And I am certain this was frozen scampi, hence the lack of flavour.

@Coxy-b34 16 дней назад

Chips look alright. Kind of well done and limp, thats how I grew up eating them( a chippy chip shoudnt be crisps like an oven chip IMO). The Scampi on the other hand looked appaling, especially considering the price.

@GreenoEats Месяц назад

I have only seen halibut in fish and chip restaurants, not takeaways. And even then very rarely, it’s quite an expensive fish here in the UK. Cod and haddock are by far the most common fish we would eat. Plaice is often another option, and in recent years we see hake creeping onto more fish and chip menus.

I live in Poole. Go to Swanage often. This place has always been dreadful. It's a seaside fish and chip shop. It doesn't have to be good. People will buy regardless.

@GreenoEats Месяц назад

I have been avoiding it as I noticed when I filmed at the Fish Plaice previously that is only has a hygiene rating of 3, which is a bit of a concern ! Which is your favourite in Swanage (and also, is there anywhere better in Poole thank Lakeside?)

@dansharpe2364 Месяц назад

@@GreenoEats Lakeside is mediocre and horribly overpriced. As it's Poole a certain type of people go there because it's "posh", despite being in the Asda carpark! Mia's at 62 Ashley Rd is excellent with very large portions at a very reasonable price. As to Swanage I don't think there is anywhere good, however not far from Swanage, the Fox Inn in Corfe Castle used to serve excellent fish and chips, including takeaway. Not been there for a while though.

@GreenoEats Месяц назад

As I understand it they make the peas thicker than normal and refrigerate them so they can be moulded into balls or patty shapes. Then treat them like any other chip shop item, rip in the batter and fry 🙂 Welcome to the channel, I hope you will enjoy my videos!!

@FastSnax Месяц назад

Urgh, places that serve cheap frozen scampi or chicken nuggets don't deserve to stay in business. At least use quality product. I do like the scraggly chips though, but I'm very much a salt and no vinegar man on the chips and a lots of vinegar on my fish only. The sausage looked good and litl'un very smartly kept it to herself. And of course Swanage is another beautiful part of Dorset.

@GreenoEats Месяц назад

See I am salt only on the fish, and salt with frankly excessive vinegar on the chips 🙂 It would be boring if we were all the same though! I grew up in Wareham, which has kind of a little local rivalry with Swanage… when I was a nipper we’d call it “Sewage” to wind up the Swanage natives 🤣
