Guy’s, it’s happening.
Britain’s most northerly fish and chips.
Wow.
This is also the most northern plaice...
No, it's not that.
He’s just throwing in fish puns straight away.
Not a fish pun
I’ve haddock with him
Oh my cod!
I'm really excited for this food.
Are you in need of greasy food, Josh?
Am I ever not in need of greasy food?
Are you especially in need?
What does that mean?
Your hair's a bit ruffled.
You're wearing sunglasses, you look pretty tired.
Hungover.
The reason I’m wearing the sunglasses, I've got a bit of a stye in my eye.
I should have brought the eye patch that you wore.
- Yeah, exactly. - But I didn't really want to steal your thing.
Well, no. You can you can steal it, it's fine.
It's too late, I'm wearing sunglasses.
You're cosplaying as a drunk celebrity
The longer we're here, the more and more excited I am.
In London, fish and chips almost feels like a take on fast food.
It doesn't help that half the fish and chip shops in London,
also sell Chinese food or fried chicken.
But this, this is different.
Feels special, right?
If you're gonna do fish and chips in the UK,
this is how you should be doing it.
Oh my gosh!
Thank you. Lovely.
I've got battered scallops.
Battered scallops, here in the middle.
This is the moment where I think we ordered too much food.
Fantastic.
How much more have we got?
Did we order any chips with our fish?
I didn’t realise they all came with chips.
Chip butty, as well.
In case we didn’t have enough chips.
Haggis.
That’s Haggis?
Fantastic.
White pudding.
Oh, my gosh!
There’s two? OK.
Did we order two?
RIght. So what do we, how do we, how? Erm...
What, what? Er...
What just happened?
The classic, right?
- Yes, of course. - The battered.
Oh, my.
- Do you know what fish that is? - Oh, my goodness.
- Haddock. - Is that haddock?
That is banging, bruv.
That’s the best fish...
That's the best fish and chips I’ve ever had.
How can it be so greasy and so clean at the same time?
It's kind of like an oxymoron, right?
Because the outside is deep-fried.
It's literally the least kind of fresh, healthy thing you can possibly do
But the inside is like a haddock that was probably caught this morning.
That's why it tastes so damn good.
It was probably caught out there, this morning.
Next up.
We got to go for the classic, the el classical.
Battered sausage
- Oh wow. - Is it good?
So, with the fish and chip sausage, here.
There's a very certain type of sausage.
- A traditional English... - What is it?
It's a traditional English breakfast sausage.
The sort of sausage you’d find at an English Breakfast, right?
Next up, let's try the haggis.
Whoa! Look at that.
Oh, wow.
That is...
- Very strong flavour. - That is a very strong flavour.
I mean, I like it but that is so intense.
I had a pretty big bite.
I don't love it.
Adam, mate, you're gonna love it.
It invades every area of your mouth.
You know?
Wow, it’s amazing
It’s almost like we’re having haggis on haggis.
Because you cook the haggis, you fry it,
it’s very rich and strong.
And then you put the batter on it,
it’s like a double whammy.
Double whammy.
Oh my gosh.
- What is that? - That’s white pudding.
Wow.
So black pudding is obviously congealed blood with some oats and stuff.
Is this congealed tears?
I have no idea what this is.
Let's see if we can work out what it is.
From the taste? OK.
Oh, I like that.
Is that deep-fried fat?
It’s pork fat, beef fat and oats.
It’s like black pudding without the blood.
It honestly tasted like deep-fried lard.
What have we got over here? Is that scampi?
- That's a scampi. - These are shallots.
Deep fried shallots.
- No, scallops. - Scallops.
You confused me.
These are scallops, deep-fried scallops. Never had these before.
Oh, that is stunning.
It’s crazy to think that tastes so different from haddock.
The fish is so fresh
I kind of want to have it outside the batter.
Well, this one's breaded so you might be able to taste it a bit more.
Get involved with that. Look at that.
Look at that meat!
It is so different being breaded, isn't it?
Hang on a second, that’s the smoked one
Whoa.
That's got a really strong smoked flavour.
Super smoked.
Tastes like the fish lived on a diet of smoky bacon.
Thirty a day.
- This is breaded scampi. - Scampi.
And these are apparently langoustine tails.
Oh, yeah.
That is...
That is phenomenal.
Oh, my gosh.
You not a fan?
You don't like it?
- I think that's my favourite thing. - I think, me too.
I think the breaded stuff's really thrown me.
Unless it’s that, the old family favourite.
You're one of very few people I know who would absolutely smash a chip butty
You’re going battered sausage in the chip butty!
Is that... really?
Andy's nodding.
Vinegar in there, as well!
You are wild, man.
It just looks so dry to me.
Try it.
Looks like it will simultaneously be incredibly dry yet incredibly greasy
How could chips between bread be that good?
I've never been more thankful for my potato allergy than I am right now.
Imagine you're working down in the mines
And you're like, "For lunch, I'm going to get a chip butty."
- Bish, bash, bosh. - OK.
I'll give you that, if I was working down the mines.
That's like giving someone a cup of dirty river water and being like,
"Imagine you've been walking through a desert for two weeks."
Then, it's the nicest thing in the world.
Sometimes your analogies aren't that great but that was a very good one
I'm so thankful. Thank you, Lord, for my allergy
I said analogies not allergy, but yeah that was a good analogy
It was a good allergy as well because I didn't have to eat it.
"Oh, sorry, you'll make me sick, I can’t."
All right. Favourites, guys. What're we thinking?
The first one, the haddock.
- The classic. The traditional. - It's gotta be.
I genuinely think that was the best fish and chips I’ve ever had in my life
It's easily the best out of these, right?
I kind of want to buy an extra one so we can get it to-go.
So I can have it later.
I don't want to do that.
Come to Frankie's, it's really far from anything else.
There's pretty much nothing around here,
except for bad weather and fishing boats.
But this food is unbelievable.
Alright, well...
See you JOLLY soon.
See you later.
I'm so tired, you can take my place.
- See you soon, guys. - That's all...
No, wrong channel. Wrong channel.
That's all for today.
