After a night out on the piss do northerners advocate the comsumption of chips gravy and garlic mayo. My room now smells like a french mens roast dinner...turely shocking.

Being a born southener, i would liken putting gravy on my chips to someone taking a piss on them.

Its the one thing that i havent been able to ajust to, the fell walking and mass drinking im cool with. The comsumption of pies im also happy with. But gravy still is beyond me.

Curry sauce in UK chip shops is to die for, especially my local one.

"Fries and gravy" is a popular dish, in North America.

I prefer salt and vinegar on my chips!

Myself, I don't get why so many people put gobs and gobs of ketchup (Not the spicy Indoesian original type, but the Heinz stuff) on their fries. A sugar addiction?
north where is it

just passed watford!!!!
Ha ha ha

You can get Turkish Kebabs in England?? All I ever found were those places selling that procesed slab of almost meat. They were run by Turks, but they were not Turkish Kebabs :) Thats an English kebab, Turkish Kebabs are made with layers :)

LS Andys right man, its like curries. English curries are nothing like Indian curries. Kebabs from English take aways are nothing like kebabs from Turkey.

I think the common term we are looking for is "Sweaty Kebab", made by turks in England lol... I dont even know why i arguing the toss lol, i dont even like Kebabs, :D :D

Much rather have a curry, and again The Takeaways have nothing on authentic home made cusine, coming fro East London, im glad to have many indian friends whose parents love to cook and share food :-)... Or Samosa's in Trichome Dense's case (freezer in the basement is full of homemade samosa's)
