00:00Right okay, we're at George A. Green's, and I tell you what, what a pleasant, it's got a nice car park, the staff were lovely, it's got benches out the front, it looks great, the whole place looks great, beef dripping, a dark batter, which I'm told is just the way they process, it's not necessarily any secret thing, it's just more of something and less of something else, but they get a dark look for it anyway, and the food looks fantastic.
00:28Look at this plate, by the way, my wife bought me that, and we're going to get this fish on here, oh, part of it's missing, let me just get it off here, onto this, look at that, that's the special fish, now from what I could work out then on the menu, 8,000, look at the size of that, of course the proof's always in the tasting,
00:58I'm going to get stuck into this first, because I want the batter to be as crispy as possible, wow, let's get stuck into that,
01:08Oh absolutely delicious,
01:14I'm going to try a bit more of this fish, that is delicious, that batter, what do you think?
01:29Well, so far so good, best I've ever had, only got to the fish at the moment, right, you've got special haven't you, we've got special, we can eat it all, that's two halves of it still, we've only eaten about a quarter each of that, have you really?
01:46Yeah, fantastic, we started doing this in February, getting out and about, seeing a bit of the UK, visiting our traditional fish and chip shops, trying to support them, trying to promote them, because they're going, and you don't want to see them go,
01:59This is a fish cake, otherwise known as a Yorkshire fish cake, two slices of parboiled potato, with fish in the middle, battered, let's cut this in out,
02:13Look at that, look how thick that fish is, wow, the fish is taken apart, like you would a fish cake, like a mash almost, shredded, and the potato is tender, check out this curry, oh that's nice, that's a proper chippy curry,
02:43And I'm going to dip a bit of this batter in here, that is delicious, apparently I caught it on a day where there's no queue out the door, please look at that, that's a portion of scraps, you know what, that's like a small fish in some place, is that?
03:02And okay, we've got their potatoes collops, dip a little bit in this curry, look at the colour of them, mmm, it's like butter inside, when I normally have chips down like that,
03:31they usually burn, that's not the case with this, this is just the colour of them, and they're gorgeous, mmm, nice and crispy, my wife likes all these little bits, all these tiny little bits, so I like the big plump bits, everyone's super friendly, now, they didn't know, obviously nobody knows,
03:53nobody knows we're reviewing until we've got everything in our hands in the back
