A common theme to this month’s

Chippy Chat. The four p’s of marketing

were really out in force in the chippy

world recently. I was out on the

road firstly at Papas at Hull, for their

amazing 50p fish and chip promotion

celebrating fifty years in the trade!

Then of course we have National Fish

and Chip day. This year i chose to

stay at home and man the CC Twitter

account. The response was fantastic,

well done NEODA. Some great stories

and pictures coming out from the

day. Across the water we have the

amazing ITICA 2 for 1 national chip day

promotion. We also have Whistler’s St

George’s Day promotion where they

served fish and chips at just £1.

Congratulations to KFE on their

20 years in the trade, we well and

truly celebrated with them at their

incredible Summer Ball. Once again

here at Chippy Chat towers we have

a lot to live up to for this years Chip

Barons’ Ball (tickets selling fast).

We have chosen to donate a FREE

advertising page to the work of the

fisherman’s mission. A hard hitting

campaign, if you can help them too

please do.

Finally, thanks to our foreign

correspondent Andrew Rogers for his

article from the latest British Chippy to

open in Amsterdam.

As usual to get in touch please email

Product, Promotion, Price & Plaice!


Every St George’s Day for the last five years, Whistler’s has sold fish and chips for £1 to celebrate the day and

raise thousands for deserving people in the community.On Saturday, April 23, it was no different at its three shops in Westbourne, Fareham and Hayling Island, with cod and chips and sausage and chips selling at just £1 all day.Staff at Westbourne wore red and white, and this time decided to raise money for Friend Finder, a charity set up by brave 14-year-old Lewis Hine

Joint owner Rana Denholm said: “We chose Friend Finder as we are totally blown over by how a 14-year-old who has been through countless surgeries for a brain tumour, can still find the energy and drive to turn his tough experience into a positive one, and help others in similar situations. “For us, celebrating St George’s Day is a perfect way do what a traditional chip shop should do; being part of the local community and serving great fish and chips.”Shop manager Emma Jane Dorey said “The £1 promotion works brilliantly for us. We were busy all day in our Westbourne shop and we did over 800 portions. The staff are brilliant on what is an extremely hectic occasion, and we managed to raise over £600 for charity too.”Do you raise money for local charities? We would like to hear from you on what you offer and how well it works? Email [email protected]

By George they’ve got it!

Technology doesn’t stand still

=

Activated carbon was chosen as the "active" agent due to itslarge reactive and adsorptive surface area. It has thousandsof interconnected graphite-based platelets, which createinterior channels, holes, and pockets. This increasedadsorptive capacity over other filter types, results in a filtermedia that achieves superior particulate and organiccontaminant removal. Each level teaspoon of activated carbonparticles exceeds the surface area of a football field.

Since we introduced the white Superpad to the frying trade in 2003we have continually worked with the manufacturer to achievewhat we considered the perfect solution for cooking oil/fatfiltration. After extensive research, development, testingand comparisons we are so impressed with results using the newSuperSorb CarbonPad. We intend to offer the new version as anupdated alternative, alongside the white product.

How SuperSorb® CarbonPads work.

Sieving: Particles large enough to see with the human eye are mechanically sieved and stopped on the top surface of the pad.

Entrapment: When SuperSorb® CarbonPads are manufactured, before the final drying process, the wet pad mixture is pulled through a vacuum in a process that makes each pad a depth filter. This makes one side of the pad porous and the other side very fine.

As the oil is pulled deeper in to the matrix of the pad during filtration, smaller and smaller particles are caught in a process called entrapment.

Absorption: This is the process whereby inorganics, metallic ions and fine particles are absorbed in to the pad’s cellulose matrix, much like a sponge absorbs water. The carbon powder makes the pad extremely absorbent.

Adsorption: This is the process whereby macromolecules, oxidants and organic compounds are neutralised by the active ingredients, such as carbon powder, that is incorporated in the matrix of the pad.

The compounds are attracted to the structure of the pad rather like a magnet. These neutralised compounds cannot contaminate the oil. The activated carbon powder removes off-odours and tastes from the oil.

SuperSorb® CarbonPads remove sub-micron particles down to 0.5 microns – this is 100 times smaller than a grain of sand.

Early one January morning in 2014 I received the dreaded news that our Reading shop had suffered a serious fire. The following day, I

took another call with the news that our Godalming shop had also suffered severe fire damage. The old adage “bad news comes in threes” was sadly true as months later fire broke out in our shop in Southsea.

With three profitable shops out of action I needed the full co-operation and support of our insurers to help us get the shops back up and running and, in the meantime, help us with the loss of income the business was suffering.

Our Reading claim was finally settled almost eight months after the fire but our claims for Godalming and Southsea were declined using “warranties” & other clauses in the policy to decline them.

One example they used was that we were not “in attendance” of the frying range at the time of the fires. The reality is that in both cases we were doing our morning “prep” no more than a few feet from the frying range when the fires occurred but in the opinion of the insurer we were not “in attendance”. We also discovered that “warranties” actually allow insurers to use reasons which are totally unconnected with the cause of a claim to decline it.

Having two claims declined was a real challenge and it was only our scale that allowed us to survive the ordeal.

We were so shocked by just how unsuitable our insurance cover was that we spoke to Ryan’s. As a result of our discussions, independent insurance

broker Ryan’s and RSA Insurance Group have joined forces to offer our industry Wrapped, a new policy designed by the industry for the industry. Wrapped is not only designed to reflect the working practices of Fish & Chip shop operators but it will also offer a number of considerable benefits which are listed here.

We learnt the hard way that it doesn’t pay to buy something as important as insurance on price or to buy generic products which just don’t reflect our daily working practices. We won’t be making that mistake again.

Since our fires, we have decided to install ANSUL Fire Suppression Systems which protect our business and improve safety for staff and customers by reducing the risk of serious fire. We found that this can be done at a surprisingly reasonable cost and it has also reduced our insurance premiums.

The Wrapped Policy offers:Attendance conditions reflecting ‘real l ife’ operational practices of the industry.

Business interruption payments made as quickly as possible - RSA works with the policyholder at all times in respect of a loss to get the business up and running as quickly as possible.Generous discounts negotiated with RSA for businesses with a combination of the following:

4 5 Star Food Hygiene Rating

4 National Federation of Fish Friers Quality Award

4 World leading ANSUL fire suppression systems installed

In addition Ryan’s offer:

4 Free 1st years membership of the National Federation of Fish Friers

4 Exclusively negotiated discounted terms and flexible finance for the purchase of world leading ANSUL fire suppression systems

4 Regular reminders to get those easily forgotten but essential servicing, safety and cleaning jobs done

Papa – Alpha +

By Austen Dack

MORE than 3,000 fish and a tonne of potatoes

were consumed recently as thousands of people

took advantage of 50p fish and chips. Chippy

Chat’s Austen Dack was there to lend a hand!

Papa’s Fish and Chips in Willerby celebrated its 50th birthday by offering the nation’s favourite dish

at 1966 prices.Extra staff were laid on for the day

to accommodate the influx of hungry punters seeking their bargain meals

Within half an hour of opening, Papa’s had to take in an extra delivery of fish as hundreds of eager people caused a rush-hour gridlock in Willerby as they went to take advantage of the deal.

Owner Sid Papas said: “It has been as busy as we expected with plenty of people queuing up by the time we opened.

“By noon we had to bring in another delivery of fish.

“We are just glad to see so many loyal customers coming to help celebrate our birthday.

“We have six people serving the takeaway food so queues have not been too bad despite the number of people coming along.

“Customers have been in good spirits and haven’t minded queuing up. The sunny weather certainly helped.”

Having started in Margate in 1966, Papa’s now has 15 branches across the UK, but the offer is exclusive to the Willerby restaurant.

Staff have been working through the night to prepare for the day.

Austen said “It was my first visit to Papas at Willerby (also known as the World’s Largest Fish and Chip Shop). I was keen to show my support and also where possible help them on what turned out to be an incredible day of trading. I take my hat off to all of the staff and to Sid Gino & George for organising such a high profile promotion, the fish and chips were excellent too.”

George Papadamou said “In less than a week we organised this promotion, with coverage on local radio in newspapers and on social network too we had over 3,000 people turn out. Thanks also to Austen for coming to visit us too.”

With face painting and a bouncy castle to keep the youngsters happy whilst they queued it seemed that the Papas team had thought of everything.

Queen Victoria was an early user of Self-Raising Flour and in 1846 Henry Jones was appointed

purveyor of patent Flour & Biscuits to her Majesty. His company subsequently held the Royal Warrant for five reigns.

Henry achieved particular success with sales to the armed forces – he even supported Florence Nightingale when she complained in a letter to The Times of the poor quality Sour Bread that was supplied to troops in the Crimean.

The matter was soon rectified and Henry Jones Self-Raising flour became the standard from the Army to the Admiralty.

It’s comforting to know that the name behind Henry Jones Batter Mixtures has such a long history and pedigree. In fact, the Henry Jones name now represents a range of Batter Mixtures which have all the characteristics of the original products: quality, excellence and consistency. Following in the footsteps of its original makers, its production uses the most trusted methods of growing, milling and blending to create some of the finest products available to fish and chip shops throughout the UK.

To find out more about Goldensheaf batter mixtures, visit www.kerry-foodservice.co.uk. or call the FREE Customer Careline on 0800 138 1938.

Henry Jones – Bags of History

Way back in 1830s Bristol, a young baker, Henry Jones, perfected the method of making Self-Raising Flour. In 1845, he

patented the method and as he was first in the market with such a product, quickly

achieved worldwide success.

New Gluten Free FactoryMiddletons has opened a new 5,000 square feet stand-alone Gluten Free factory at its site in Willenhall, West Midlands, dedicated specifically to manufacturing gluten free products to ensure there is no cross contamination of the product. There are tolerances for claiming your product is Gluten Free of less than 20 parts per million, however at Middletons we like to ensure there is no cross contamination risk by removing all wheat products from the environment.

The building took six months to complete and can produce over 100 tonnes of naturally gluten free batter, curry and gravy mixes as well as a range of seasonings and bakery products per week. With the gluten free market growing significantly, Middleton Foods was eager to create an environment in which all wheat products were removed, giving full control over manufacturing and eliminating the risk of cross-contamination completely. As a company Middleton Foods are committed to developing a whole range of gluten free products across the fish and chip and fast food sector, Food service and the Butchery and processors markets.

Middleton’s Gluten Free batter mixMiddleton’s Gluten Free batter mix has grown into one of the leading Gluten Free products in the Fish and Chip industry. It took several years to develop and fine tune the recipe into the great product it is today. All Middletons products go through rigorous testing process before being launched to the market.

Middleton’s currently offer its Gluten Free Batter Mix, which is now available in the 1kg bag and a larger 16kg bag. Made using Doves Farm gluten free flour, the batter mix is endorsed by the Coeliac Society and carries the internationally recognisable crossed grain symbol identifying gluten free products.

In addition the Middletons product is listed on the Coeliac UK website and Middleton’s work alongside Coeliac UK to promote the correct usage of Gluten Free products in restaurants and take aways.

Middletons have produced a leaflet and poster which is free to all Fish and Chip shops offering guidance for fish and chip shops serving Gluten Free food.

From humble beginnings of a single fish and chip shop in the heart of the West Midlands, just

over 50 years ago, to a group of 5 companies employing over 250 people. A family owned business Middleton Foods, produce Batters, Breadings, Meat Glazes, Coaters, Reformed

Products and Catering Mixes.

From Farm to FrierGoldensheaf quality goes all the way…

When market-leading Goldensheaf Standard was first launched over 65

years ago, its watchwords were “natural” and “quality” and those values hold just as true today right across the range of Goldensheaf batter mixtures.It’s not by chance that Goldensheaf is the number one best selling batter mix across the UK: a huge amount of effort goes into making sure it’s the best, at every stage of its creation.

The process of ensuring Goldensheaf’s quality begins right in the fields where the crops are grown. The company’s experienced buyers select the best wheat grains and growers are vetted to make certain they adhere to strict quality standards. They undergo regular checks in order to maintain those standards.

Once the wheat arrives at one of Goldensheaf’s UK manufacturing sites, it is milled in a completely controlled environment so that it remains free from contamination of any kind. At the end of the milling process, the flour is tested and

blended to the Goldensheaf recipe using only natural colours.

The batter mix is tested at every stage of production to ensure that our quality is consistent and utterly reliable. The final test is undertaken before it leaves the premises to reach wholesalers and finally, the customer, in perfect condition.

And dedication to quality doesn’t stop with the product itself. Goldensheaf’s “Frying Squad” customer-facing team of experts located around the country has vast experience of working in the fish frying market. From training in batter preparation to more general business advice, they are each on hand to assist friers. Their motto “We’re here to help!” is genuine and never taken lightly. Whether it’s an on-site that’s needed, or a quick phone call, they’re always on hand to offer support.

Whitley’s new Pulse Batter Flour is made NOT from a conventional Wheat Flour but from 100%

Natural Pulse Flour.Made in our dedicated Production

Facility, Pulse Batter Flour naturally contains more protein, more energy,

more fibre and more trace minerals with less c a r b o h y d r a t e s , l e s s sodium, less starch and less sugar than Wheat Based Batters. More importantly, w h e n a n a l y s e d b y Foodtest Laboratories Ltd they found that the oil absorbed during frying was reduced by up to 46%! - producing a far less greasy product.

Extended trials with a number of our customers have also shown that Pulse has a better yield factor requiring up to 33% less flour to produce the same quantity of batter!

Offering You and Your Customers a host of benefits…

Contains MORE Protein

Contains MORE Fibre

Contains LESS Starch

Contains LESS Sugar

Contains LESS Carbohydrates

Contains LESS Sodium

REDUCED Oil Pick Up

GREATER Yield

Carl Heery of ‘Fairfield Place’, Buxton says “Pulse is truly fantastic! It makes my oil last longer, it goes a lot further than normal batters and gives a superb, tasty coating that has definitely increased my fish sales!

Nigel Hodgson of ‘Hodgson’s Chippy’, Lancaster found that our Pulse “Mixed well, used a lot less flour and was very smooth. The batter was crisp and stood well in the hot cabinet. The taste was excellent with no ‘pallet cling’. It really complemented the taste of the fish and the reduction in oil pick up was remarkable!!”

John Greenslade of ‘The Kerry Lamb’, observed “there is a lot less oil pick up and the frying media stays cleaner for longer. The batter coats very evenly unlike more ‘bubbly’ traditional batters. It has a very pleasant taste and the customer response has genuinely been excellent.

Whilst the base raw material for Pulse costs more than the cost of Premium Wheat Flour, the gap is narrowed considerably because of its much reduced oil pick-up and its greatly improved yield factor - making your frying media and the Pulse Flour go a lot further.

Customers are finding that they can fry 20%-25% more fish in the same amount of oil and from the same amount of batter flour.

The analysis from the data above proves there can be up to a 46% reduction in oil pick up when comparing a standard wheat based batter (FP1) to NEW Whitley’s Pulse Batter Flour (FP2/FP3)

Because of the visible differences when making up Pulse Batter Flour compared to a Traditional Batter Flour – we have produced a tutorial video which you can view online at www.vawhitley.co.uk/new-whitleys-pulse-batter-flour/

FREE Point of Sale Material is now available so you can tell your customers about the many benefits deriving from you using Pulse Batter Flour.

Samples of Whitley’s Pulse Batter Flour are now available - seeing and tasting is truly believing!! It will make your already healthy product even healthier - as the perfect balanced meal!

Boasting a career spanning over four decades in the potato industry, son of a farmer, Philip, barely out of his

teens knew that a career following in his father’s footsteps was not for him, being ambitious by nature he wanted to follow a different path and decided to open his own fruit and veg shop in his home town of Kenton.

By the age of 20 Philip had already built up a strong customer base and was supplying potatoes to fish and chip shops around the South West Country. All his hard work soon paid off and as the business grew he decided to swap fruit and veg for potatoes, and very soon earned a good reputation in the potato industry.

Not content to stop there - Philip was now supplying potatoes to fish and chip shops, cafes and hotels. He recognised that there was a gap in the market to offer a service repairing equipment, servicing and re-gritting customers’ potato peelers. He seized the opportunity to start the very successful ‘Williams Catering Products’, which alongside Williams Potatoes has grown from strength to strength!

Reliability, Consistency, Customer Service, Loyal Staff...Philip attributes his company’s success to his reputation of reliability and offering new and second hand equipment repairs, supplying spare parts and exchanging old equipment for new. Extending this service to the whole of the UK and now overseas.

One of the key factors to Williams Catering and Potatoes success is continuing reliability - if a customer finds themselves stranded and urgently needs potatoes or their chipper or peeler has broken down, his company and its workforce will be there to help them out. Available five days a week or by appointment on Saturday and Sundays. Alternatively you could visit the Williams showroom to get a replacement! (They hold over 300 chipper/peelers in stock).

AN award-winning chip shop that once dyed its fish blue to celebrate the Tour de Yorkshire has undergone a £112,000 expansion.

Audrey’s Fish and Chips in Bridlington has bought out a neighbouring sewing shop to create a new restaurant area.

The expansion, which has come about as a result of a funding package from a local bank, has enabled the chippy to double the number of diners it can accommodate and create disabled access.

Owner James Morrison said: “We’re getting busier and busier year on year, and even have to turn people away at peak times, so when the owners of the sewing shop next door decided to retire it seemed like a great opportunity to expand.”

“In just four weeks and four days James and the team completed the ambitious project. “The holiday season is so precious to us in Brid, we wanted to be open for the first bank holiday in May. We cracked the whip and with a lot of effort made our deadline. It has made such a difference, we are now getting group bookings, wheelchair users plus the local council are recommending us to the artists who come to the resort as the place to go too.”

Mr Morrison turned his fish blue to mark the colours of the Tour de Yorkshire last year. He said at the time: “We tried the food colouring and it’s turned out really well.

“It’s not the most appealing-looking fish, but it’s got people talking.

“It tastes exactly the same - it still tastes great. Some people might just need to eat it with their eyes closed!”

Audrey’s also became known for its deep-friend Christmas puddings and battered parsnips during the last festive season.

Seven Up!The Irish Traditional Italian

Chippers Association (ITICA) has announced their seventh

annual day was a huge success with over 200,000 people visiting shops to celebrate over 130 years trading in Ireland.

Customers were treated to half price fish and chips to celebrate the annual tradition and to thank communities for their continued support over the years.

Currently with over 200 members around the country, ITICA was created to promote and build on the traditional values and ethos of the Irish Italian chipper community in Ireland providing excellent service and quality of food to their customers.

All ITICA member chippers carry

the official ITICA logo, which assures customers of the highest levels of quality and service. The Irish Italian chipper culture was started by members of the Irish Italian community who arrived in Ireland in the 1880s from a group of small villages in Val Di Comino in southern Italy.

“We look forward to ITICA National Fish & Chips Day every year,” said Peter Borza, chairman, ITICA. This year once again we exceeded all expectations numbers wise, with over 200,000 diners. We also received more media coverage and also lots more tweets and facebook mentions than previous years. Thanks to all of the shops who took part and also our sponsors too. We gave away thousands of instant prizes on the day a trip to Rome and also a seven day cruise.” WWW.ITICA.IE

Due to popular demand the Irish National Half Price Fish and

Chips Day was back this year on Wednesday 25th May, the

one day offer was valid all day in participating Irish Traditional

Italian Chippers across the country.

A new pop-up restaurant coming to central London this summer will give diners the option to eat in the nude.

The Bunyadi, which is opening in June for three months, will be split into clothed and unclothed sections, and even feature staff in the nude with certain body parts covered up, Time Out reports.

The concept is so popular over 30,000 people have signed on the waiting list on the restaurant’s website including me!

Created by the pop-up company Lollipop, The Bunyadi will extend its naked theme to the menu, with vegan and non-vegan dishes made with all-natural ingredients and cooking methods, and served on handmade clay plates with edible cutlery, according to a press release from the event creators.

“The idea is to experience true liberation,” Seb Lyall, the founder of Lollipop, said in the release. “People should get the chance to enjoy and experience a night out without any impurities: no chemicals, no artificial colours, no electricity, no gas, no phone and even no clothes if they wish to.”

The decor will also be stripped back, with bamboo and wicker partitions and earthy wooden furniture, while the space — which caters to 46 diners at a time — will be illuminated by candles, which are likely to provide more flattering lighting for those in the nude.

“Everything patrons interact with is bare and naked,” Lyall said in the press release.

Tickets will cost in the region of £55-65 per person, and include food and drink on a tasting menu. They will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

Diners will have access to gowns, changing rooms, and lockers, where they can leave their clothes and their modern lives behind

Partitioned by bamboo and wicker, nude diners will be able to maintain some privacy from others inside the restaurant. (Courtesy of the Bunyadi)

The day started early, with the traditional Kiremko KFE Golf Tournament. The event has grown in recent years and

they were delighted that a new team, England B, made up from sponsors, competed for the international trophy and the newcomers did well taking home the trophy on their first occasion. The team was made up of David Lovell from Kerry’s, Vince Willows of Friars Pride, Reece Head from Fry, Gary Keeley of CF Capital and Richard Evans from Leicester Machine Movers. The overall Trophy was retained for the first time by the previous year’s winner, Reece Head with a total of 35 Stapleford points and Matt Henderson, KFE’s Finance Manager won the Whoosh B******s trophy on his first appearance with a tremendous 5 points!

The evening started in style with a

spectacular champagne reception and saxophonist before a wonderful three course meal was served in the beautiful marquee. Entertainment started with some fantastic table magic by top UK magician, Paul Martin and then the evening really kicked off with original Drifters member Roy G Hemmings’ “Reach Out To Motown” show which is a celebration of 50 years of Motown, with hits by The Supremes, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas, The Four Tops, The Temptations, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder and Lionel Richie to name but a few. Judging by a packed dance floor they were great!

The KFE Dinner Dance raffle raised £1125 which was split between the Fishermen’s Mission and CLIC Sargent. This charity was selected this year by KFE’s Nick Williams and Matt Henderson who are running the Great North Run later this year to support them, if you would like to donate more please do now at https://www.justgiving.com/kfe

The evening event was a great success with many customers and suppliers asking if this event can be topped- Yes it can, watch this space for 2017!

‘In the past four weeks 9 fishermen have died at sea, and of that number, two have yet to be found.

We simply want people to be aware of how dangerous fishing is and the human cost that is paid for the fish we take for granted’.

‘Despite this shocking figure there is very little coverage in the media. News is reported in a small way but there is no bringing together of the facts to reveal the full story. It is rare for us to speak up in this way but such are our concerns that we feel morally bound to voice our fears’.

‘There are thousands of families around the UK coastline who, over the years, have lost someone to the sea and, of those, many have never been found and brought home.

For these families it means years of

standing still and a life lived without closure,’

Here are some of the facts that we find so shocking.

If you work as a fisherman from 16 to 65 then you have a 1 in 14 chance of dying at work.

The fatality rate on UK Fishing Vessels is 60 per 100,000, in Agriculture it is 9.1 and in Construction 2.3. Looking at 2016 there has been to date 1 death for every 910 fishermen.

‘We witness first-hand the pain and the trauma. We would like the deaths and injuries to our fishermen to be given the profile that informs the public of the high price of fishing and the human costs involved.’

New-Chips inFish & chips make welcome return to Amsterdam

Award-winning chef Justin Brown’s new venture in Amsterdam has been welcomed with open arms in a city where Brits form the largest ethnic minority from a Western country. The thousands of British expats have had to do without a fish and chip shop since the closure of Al’s Plaice several years back. So when ‘The Chippy’ opened its doors and fired up its fryers for the grand opening in May, Chippy Chat’s Amsterdam correspondents were more than happy to join the opening night.

With a wealth of experience behind him and successful pop-up fine dining restaurants in Amsterdam, Justin and his team have set out to offer a chip shop experience and considerably more besides. The Chippy is an integral part of an edgy new cocktail bar called Cafe Scrapyard, complete with resident DJ at the weekends. It offers a traditional menu which includes beer battered fish (cod, haddock and plaice), homemade pie of the day, battered sausage and homemade sides and sauces. Those with a sweet tooth can tuck into the dessert of the day, or an ice cream sundae. There are even rumours of sticky toffee pudding to come in the near future. Sampling the dishes that The Chippy has to offer, we have to say that the fish, chips and sauces were all delicious. Our

personal favourite was the exceptional homemade steak pie and the exquisite mushy peas. The cocktails were delicious too: the ‘Licence Tequila’ was a fiery little number but it’s caps off to the bartender who made the lethal ‘Peachy Blinder’. Chippy Chat writers don’t go in for gratuitous boozing, of course, so we were pleased that, despite the venue being packed with people looking to sample the unique combination of food and drinks, Justin was kind enough to take a few minutes out from greeting guests to discuss his new venture.

You’ve had a very successful career as a chef in the UK so what brought you to Amsterdam?I came here over a year ago to be with my Dutch girlfriend Emma, who I met in Australia! It’s actually been a great move as there are so many options in this vibrant city. I’ve set up a fine dining company in Amsterdam called ‘Verzet’, which is Dutch for resistance. We’ll be cooking for lots of VIPS at June’s Taste Amsterdam festival and we already have a good following thanks to two successful pop up ventures.

What’s your thinking behind The Chippy? I’ve been a chef all my life. While I wouldn’t say I am an entrepreneur, I am very entrepreneurial and really enjoy learning about the business side of things. Having

worked in some high-end restaurants in London and Australia, I felt the time was right to offer a more casual concept where people can relax over good drinks and great food. I previously won several awards for my batter in the UK so this seemed the ideal chance to plug the fish & chip gap in Amsterdam.

What makes you think that a fish and chip shop will work in Amsterdam?If it was only a fish and chip shop then I still think it would work because I think we have the quality and the audience. But we’re not just offering fish and chips – this is a place where people will come to have anything from a fine cocktail to a homemade pickled egg. Everything here is homemade, including the mushy peas, the curry sauce and the gravy. We are only cooking with fresh sustainable fish from Ijmuiden. We can even name the area in which the fish were caught and I’ve been on the boat and met the captain.

Was it a business decision to focus on these areas?Not really, it’s the way I like to do things. I always make sure I know where the food I am using comes from. The potatoes for the chips are Dutch and we are having the water content tested every week. If it’s not right, we’ll change the variety of the potato to ensure we get the best chips. Nothing is going to be left to chance in The Chippy… You can find The Chippy at KINKERSTRAAT 24, 1053 DV, AMSTERDAM (INSIDE CAFE SCRAPYARD)

Panni is always striving for the highest standards and as a result he has again turned to Hewigo.

Due to the depth of the premises he decided on a 3-pan Island range which gives the serving staff more space and the possibility of seating at the front. The range is fitted with a heated top display cabinet in three sections, computerised temperature control and built-in twin-pipe filtration. The front panels are finished in

striking matt red which has become the trademark of the Hungry’s brand.

“You cannot stand still and while consistent quality is a very high priority, I try to do something new in each of my shops,” says Panni. “I’ve found Hewigo’s flexible approach to range manufacture very helpful and always great value for money.” He adds, “I wanted to make the restaurant area a little different from the usual fish & chip restaurant offering a range of speciality coffees, homemade cakes, fish dishes which are not fried and other locally sourced fresh food.”

Phillip Purkiss, Managing Director of Hewigo says, “Panni is a great customer, pushing the boundaries in this corner of the Wirral and we are very pleased that he finds us the ideal partner.”

For further information contact Hewigo on 0121 544 9120 or www.hewigo.com

Hungry for Success

Panni Miltiadous is steadily building a small empire. He now has five shops; four on the Wirral and one

in North Wales all carrying the ‘Hungry’s’ name. Eighteen months ago he opened a new shop in

Tranmere and his latest project is a complete refurbishment of his shop in Eastham. This includes

a forty seater restaurant in the adjacent premises.

Well if the first year was a ‘quiet launch’ (due to time) then we must congratulate Neoda on this year’s fantastic National Fish and Chip Day.

Much of my day was spent on Twitter watch and it was such a delight to see our national dish trending, topping the charts for much of the time. Shops across the UK were all keen to tell consumers that we should be proud to eat fish and chips. The day also coincided with a victorious U turn bigger than the reversal of the pasty tax by Guardian journalist Alexi Duggins. In February he called fish and chips ‘the most disgusting meal on Earth.’ This was off the back of the National Fish and Chip Awards and the great PR we received. In one single pin prick Alexi had seemingly burst our balloon. Here is a copy of one of the emails I sent to the Guardian

Dear EditorWe spend thousands every year (as an industry) investing in promoting our dish as nutritious healthy and wholesome (fresh fish, fresh potatoes, & peas). In one article he has once again set us back.Perhaps he would like to write a report in the Guardian again after visiting Simpsons in Cheltenham - who have just won UK’s best fish and chip restaurant. Here they will cook him the best fish and chips in the land!On Friday June 3rd 2016 it is National Fish and Chips Day. To help make up for this blight it would be brilliant if the Guardian can help us by getting behind us to promote it. Perhaps we can have Alexi walking up and down Kings Cross station wearing a sandwich board promoting fish and chip day!Things have changed a lot since he was in a chip shop as a kid - perhaps a shift in one now would confirm this too?

RegardsAusten Dack

In the Guardian article he wrote after the Simpsons visit (published on National Fish and Chip Day) he said “Finally, it’s judgment time”. “You’ll be wanting to taste the fish and chips then?” asks (James) Ritchie. “After all, I’m here to see if good fish and chips can be a culinary joy. And it turns out that it can.”

Finally, again well done to Neoda and well done to the industry. We take great pleasure in printing photographs sent to us and posted online from across the UK. Here’s to 2017.

Pride ofBritain!

The all-important date is Sunday 11th September 2016. We’ve moved it to a Sunday so hopefully more shops can

make it.Last year chip shop owners from as far afield

as the Shetland Islands flocked to the area to see just how the humble spud gets from the field to their fryer. It is also a unique event as it showcases lots of new products and also invites key industry presenters to give key pointers on how to market your business and current trends.

There were many speakers, slide shows and even a short movie tracking the journey a potato makes on it’sway to the chippyLucy Frazer MP for South East Cambridgeshire started proceeding followed by the President of the NFFF - Gregg Howard

Last years attendies visited a potato farm followed by a tour of the the Isle of Ely of proccessing and storage plant hosted by IOE Director Oliver Boutwood.

As always - Tea, coffee, sandwiches, and cakeand much more cake

It is time once more to start promoting the annual Isle of Ely

Produce Open Day. Already over 400 fish and chip owners have visited the

farm in Ely Cambridgeshire to find out more about the potatoes which

end up in their shops.

Many suppliers to the industry also attended, making it one of the largest events of its kind in the UK.

This year we will include a trip to a local grower who will be harvesting the 2016 crop. (weather permitting). We will try to predict potato prices for 2017 and also have some great potatoes on trial.

In 2015 the opening speech of the day was by National Federation of Fish Friers president Gregg Howard, who opened the day with a presentation about how important knowledge of chip preparation, storage and frying is to serving great fish and chips.

The NFFF are in 2016 becoming an event partner, and will be promoting the FREE day to their members.

Last year more than 100 people gathered at the farm and were welcomed by myself and I went on to deliver them the packed agenda for the day.

This year due to popular demand we have space for over 150 people.

With more than 10,000 chip shops in the UK, the potatoes from East Cambridgeshire and the Fens play a key part in supplying an industry which has an annual retail spend which tops £1.2billion.

John Boutwood, managing director of Isle of Ely Produce said: “Our purpose is very much to be at the heart of our business communities and to champion their aspirations and to support them.

“This open day helps cement our position further and increased the bond we already have within the trade.”

Sponsors of the day last year included Union Norge, Middleton Foods, Kerry Foodservice and Drywite. If you would like to attend this year as a supplier or as a sponsor (we have lots of display space) please contact [email protected] .

This year we already have some great speakers lined up including 2016 Champions Simpsons of Cheltenham, & Field to Frier Winner Craig Buckley from the Fish Bar in Crewe.

Entry for the day is FREE and will fill up quickly. Included in the day is tea/coffee, lunch and the chance to chat to some great likeminded chip shop owners.

Chippy Chat Plus members will get first chance to get spaces (maximum three per shop).

In the evening we will meet up and have some food and drinks!

Please email [email protected] if you would like to reserve a space.


Catchems End, in Bewdley, is proud to announce it is currently the only shop in Worcestershire

to be awarded MSC Chain of Custody certification. It’s now serving customers certified, sustainable and fully traceable line-caught cod and haddock.

The shop has been serving fish and chips since the seventies and recently, the present owner, George Georgiou, decided to completely refurbish the shop and gain certification.

George had previously bought his cod and haddock as line-caught, and once he discovered through his son Andy that it would be a relatively easy process to apply for and achieve MSC certification, it became clear this was an essential ‘next step’ for the business.

Catchems End now offers MSC certified cod, haddock, plaice and hake on their menu, sourced from their MSC certified supplier, fish merchant F Smales and Son.

Andy was pleased with the MSC’s straightforward certification process and staff training.

Owner George Georgiou explained his delight with the certification and being able to promote the sustainable MSC fish available on his menu.

“A few years ago I started selling line-caught cod and haddock and was impressed by not only the quality, but how much more environmentally

friendlier it was for the ocean. My son Andrew noticed that quite a few shops had gained MSC certification – so as we source MSC certified fish, it was logical for us to be proud of this and promote it to our customers. I was therefore really keen for Catchems End to go through the certification process as a next step.

By gaining MSC certification we can really inform customers about how the fish they are buying is sustainable and helping to safeguard the future of fish stocks for generations to come.”

Meanwhile in South London Cornish hake joins nine other MSC endorsed species on the menu at Olley’s including cod, haddock, plaice, scallops and mussels. Olley’s Fish Experience in Herne Hill has been serving Cornish hake for some time, but it was only in June last year that the fishery received the MSC stamp of approval. Ever since then, Olley’s owner, Harry Niazi, has been working with his fish merchant, Southbank Fresh Fish, to secure a supply of this ever-popular species.

Harry explains: “Although Olley’s has MSC chain of custody, the fishing boat has chain of custody and our fish merchant has chain of custody, there was a break in the chain between boat and London arrival and, for us to be able to promote the MSC status to our customers, every part of the supply chain had to be certified. We’ve been pushing from day one to have that broken link closed up and I’m delighted to say that it has and that we can now serve our customers with this fantastic product.”

Perfect Ten for Harry!Catchems End and Olley’s Fish Experience have both been awarded MSC certification

recently with Olley’s gaining an incredible tenth award!

Bruce & Co. are delighted to announce the sale of The Fish & Chip Company

in Perth and Kinross.Located in Auchterarder, and being

close to Gleneagles Hotel and Golf Courses, the business enjoys a prime trading location, resulting in high levels of trade from both locals and tourists.

The Fish & Chip Company has been operated by the same family since 1937, passing down to the second generation. The vendors, Mr and Mrs Giannandrea, finally decided to sell after many successful years of trading due to their wish to retire.

The business occupies a traditionally built terraced building. The property incorporates 2 floors; the ground floor provides the business accommodation, with an attractive owner’s accommodation located on the first floor. The owner’s accommodation is substantially sized with 2 large double bedrooms.

The business trades successfully throughout the year, but with limited opening hours. This therefore gives the buyer immediate scope for further development.

Interest in the fish and chip shop was high, with an impressive 7 viewings. The business was acquired by a private buyer on a freehold basis.

Jayne Adamson, Sales Manager at Bruce & Co. commented “I am glad that Mr and Mrs Giannandrea can relax and enjoy their time off following the sale. I wish them all the best for the future, and would also like to wish the buyer all the best in the future of the business”
