Large fish supper please
OK, here's my puff of the week. Cranfield Fish and Chip Shop. At least one member of Trouble's household is a weekly user and we've all dipped in from time to time. With or without a calorie-controlled diet, of course, fish and chips are not good for the waistline but done properly they taste great. Especially from the paper, on the seafront (which we do not have) as envious gulls wheel around. In the 1980s, ancient times in Cranfield, there was a van, every Tuesday, rang a bell to announce its arrival in your street. The chip shop followed soon after.
A folk legend says that the late and very unlamented Jimmy Savile was involved in its opening. I can't say yea or nay but he did get around. There have been several proprietors since but talking of folk legends I notice the menu (see below) does "Mars in Batter" for £1. I always thought deep fried mars bar was some urban legend/media hype about stereotypical Scotland. But the dish seems to be alive and well in Central Bedfordshire. Give me a large cod (from sustainable stocks) any day.
