each to there own the best i have had for years is the hotel in castletown cant recomend it enough its class
Each to their own as you say. I have read many good reports on Robins.In wick most of the Chippies are not as good, wouldnt say anyone would waste their money on a "False recommendation" on that one.. Saying that I tried the one in Castletown twice and was not very impressed at all. I got a pattie supper and it was pink!!! Now to me a pattie is made with mince but I have never seen pink mince!!!!(well not cooked anyway;))
the pitstop chippy is good in wick
Is the chip van back in action again? I an hoping that he will be in Keiss on Wednesday night.
Like you L.M.S. I to am hoping the chip van will be in Keiss on Wednesday night:roll:
Me too!! Chips in Keiss tonight!?
where does he go every night ?? eg what routes and places
due to the adverse weather conditions forcast for this evening i am afraid i will not be trading in Keiss tonight.
i would like to send my apologies to the people of keiss.
do you have a menu of what u offer in ur chip van ??
We had some supers out the Chip Van the other, but we did not think much of it unfortunately. Not what we call proper Chips. They are far to big and looked over cooked to. We were looking forward to good Chip Shop Chips but it just wasn't to our taste. If they were normal size they would of been 100 times better. One of the burgers did not look cooked properly either, we didn't eat it. :(
We all hope it will improve.. :)
went to the chip shop van tonight it was fantastic!! best ive had in a long time:D
We went and tried the Chip Van again the other night... :)
Chips were a lot better size we all thought. Much better than the previous week..
The only thing that kind of put us off was that it was very greasy. We had Fish and Sausage Suppers, but it was just a bit greasy for our liking.
But overall it was better that the week before.. We will try next week to see if it has improved again..
Thanks. :)
No show again in Keiss tonight. The poor natives are starving.
i do appologise but there is something that is telling me not to go to keiss, everytime i get the van ready to go out on the road to keiss something goes wrong, or breaks, or the wind gets too strong for the trailer
(45-50mph), out of the 6 weeks i tried to get to you once i made it and then crashed on the way back, and i was only going 20mph, and tonight one of my chip tubs broke apart when i picked it up and 2 sacks of prepared chips were wasted as they fell all over the drive and had to be thrown away. maybe in the future it might be put back on the route when i have the other van.
sorry for the inconvenience, and please feel free to come to my other locations which will be on my website in due course.

Only us again... :)
We called in at the Chip Van on Saturday...
Have to say the Chips are getting much better.. A wee bit of a crisp to them to, and not as greasy as before.. Improved..
Cant say that for the sausages though.. The weren't even cooked..! :( We cut one open to see, and it was pure pink inside.. Two supers were exactly the same.. If we never had went back to the toon, we would of been straight back with them but it was just to far to come back..
Can i ask something c4c..? Do you use a Food Thermometer to check that the food is cooked properly..
Thanks.
:)
S T O P!!! right there
i will call you a liar right now!
i do not know who you are nor do i wish to, but i do not know where you got your catering degree, as the last time i looked pork was pink, as as to serving you raw sausages on saturday night that is down right slander and a lie, as i have a printed till receipt which tell me exactly what i sell and on saturday i did not sell one single sausage.
if you have a valid complaint then by all means contact me, my mobile and house phone are on the org and the van and my website for everyone to see, if i bought prduce that was suppose to be cooked and was served raw, i would either take it back, or contact them directly by phone, neither of which you did.
as to a temperature probe i have 2 and yes i do use them not for every individual item that i cook but for some, you try and probe every chip when i cook 75kg of chips a night.
just incase you missed my number orger 01847/841369 feel free to call.

Oh Oh!!!
I think an explanation is required on this one! After all someone is lying and as this is a recommendations thread its only fair that we find out who!!
I havent been to the van and dont know orger so am Impartial,but someone here is not being entirely truthful but which one?
I have planned a visit to the van so my custom depends on this.
As a chef as well I know what critiisism means to a chef as most of us put our heart and soul into our food so to have it demeaned is like a kick in the goolies!
On the other hand as a customer I can be picky too and expect quality and will complain when not right.
I will sit on the fence on this one:).
