It was one of those evenings last night where walking home at 11pm I needed some chips (a couple of beers and no dinner meant this was a necessity), anyway a new chip shop has opened just outside of Clapham North station and I popped into sample its delights. The man in front of me was asked if he wanted salt and vinegar on his chips and sausage (unbattered), he said no salt and the asked if they had any crushed black pepper!! I was suppressing my giggles in the corner, anyway, his chips were duely served and the guy serving them poured a lot of salt and then vinegar on them much to the customer's disgust who then got very shirty and said he specifically asked for 'NO SALT'. So without missing a beat I am offered the offending portion of chips and I feel I have to announce very loudly that I like salt to the whole shop! It was funny, I mean who goes to a chip shop for crushed black pepper and in general to be healthy? I suppose I shouldn't judge as maybe for health reasons he can't eat salt but I find it odd to go to a place which serves such unhealthy food and try and be healthy, go the whole hog is my motto! Anyway to cut a long story short they were excellent chips!
