There is only one in Old Town Alexandria. A British Establishment that does them pretty close (and one place in St. Augustine, Florida) another British pub... but, they are probably the best here. Making them at home has never seemed like a good option, even in the UK, people prefer them at the pub.
I use russets to cut them up thick and deep fry them, but, I dislike frying food. :)
I know! It is the most flavorful as they say!
Thanks for getting back to me. I miss those chips!
Yes it has been a long time since I got rid of my deep fat fryer. I have an air fryer and do our oven chips in there. They are okay but not like from a fish and chip shop. The pub ones are okay, but still not like a fish and chip shop.
And here we are talking about food again and I need to make lunch!
Oh yes I remember russets, they are good potatoes, one thing about living in Florida I remember the trouble getting good potatoes!
