Re: Why are portions gettin smaller from the chip shop

Re: Why are portions gettin smaller from the chip shop
Just had fish, chips and peas from Plantation St chippy, not bad.
Mani, did you complain about the portion size? O r were there an option for a larger portion? |

Entwisi: That is disgusting charging for the vinegar, part of the meal, ain't it ? Complain. My daughter once complained when Littlewoods in Manchester began to charge for condiments.. wrote heavily to their H.O. .. within 2 weeks they had reverted back to giving freely. What was that case in America the other week where this guy shot the assistant in the arm 'cause they were only allowed to give a certain amount of sauces, and he wanted more ? :eek: Don't revert to this though. |

[quote=katex;444380]Ah, but are the scoops now in metro ?
The scoops still look the same to me:) |
Re: Why are portions gettin smaller from the chip shop
grego
there was an option for a large but that was 1.50/2 and for a quid i did expect more than just a handful. which in all honesty thats what they were - a handful - and i've got small square hands |
Re: Why are portions gettin smaller from the chip shop
Kate, we complained when they introduced it, they have a captive market so just ignored us.
With your toast you get marg or you can pay 10p for a portion of butter. to be fair at 13p/slice its cheap enough though |

Re: Why are portions gettin smaller from the chip shop
The biggest bloody tax fiddle around! How often do you see a chippy using a till and ringing it in?...not very often!
And while I'm on a rant, a few years ago all chippys put their prices up(on chips) by at least 30%, they blamed it on the poor harvest. The next year when every farmer this side of mongolia was growing spuds, low and behold there was a glut, the prices plummeted!, did we get a reduction in price? did we hellers like. Aswell as the chips, what about the peas 40p and 80p, gravey the same, don't even start me on curry sauce,dill hall lane charge £1, yes one bloody pound for a poly carton or ladel of the powdered, just add water rubbish. It's a rip off and most of the time, I begrudge paying it. then again, SEA BREEZE moscow mill street give mammouth portions! |

We should have a thread naming and shaming rubbish establishments and praising the good ones ! Chippy tea used to be an economical and convenient meal now it's an expensive (and mainly overrated) treat !
