Fish and Chips
Posted by
Hello all. As I write I've started the preparations for the GF Christmas (mincemeat, cake etc) but I'm craving fish and chips. Big chunky chips and beautiful fish. I don't have a deep fat fryer so my question is - does anyone know anywhere in London (or even the rest of the country) where I might be able to indulge? I think I heard of a pub in Yorkshire, but that's quite a trip from London for a fish supper

Hello all.
Theres a Fish and Chip Shop in Boston, Lincolnshire, that is GF, or alternatively you can buy GF breadcrumbs from Barrets the Health Shop and make your own or if you try gfdiet.com (order day 1, bake day 2, deliver day 3) they sell batter mix and food that tastes normal (even PASTRY products!!). Mc Cain Oven chips are also GF. We also have a Butchers called Pettits (Grimsby) that make to order chippolates ect I think they do mail order as well, watch this space and I will try and find if they have a website. Best bread found so far is DS (Dietary Specials) also do pies and Pizza and also found Sainsbury own to be nice (Still got to be toasted though

Just a hint, some people that have celiac also have a sensitivity to lactose or any dairy products... including chocolate. That could be the problem... goodluck

Thanks for the tip! I think I'll have to plan a weekend away in the New Year!!!
Have a great Christmas

p.s. for those who like sausages, try Graig Farm (www.graigfarm.co.uk). They are organic and good to their animals and all their products use rice flour to bind, rather than anything nasty and gluten orientated and they taste FANTASTIC

As from the 19th February 2006 every Fish & Chip Shop in the UK will be able to easily get the new Glu-2-Go Gluten & Wheat-Free Fish & Chip Shop Batter from their main wholesalers.
It will also be available through specialist wholesalers such as Gluten-Free Foods Direct.
For more information visit www.glu2go.co.uk and get Fish & Chips back on the menu.
Happy frying!
Susan

Our fish and chip shop, The Frying Machine, is introducing a frying session on the first Saturday afternoon of the month beginning on Saturday July 1st, 2006. Lynne Vallis, our manager, has researched the Glu-2-go product and has undertaken a hazard analysis exercise so that we can be sure we are offering something delcious and safe for anyone with a wheat intolerance to eat. We have had a few sessions practising with the new batter and we can tell you it is fantastic.
We will be offering the gluten free sessions between 2.30 and 5pm every first Saturday of the month. It will be held outside of our normal opening times so that there is no risk of contamination by anything with gluten in it.
You are very welcome to come and try our fish and chips, we will be delighted to see anyone, and are hoping this will be a success.
We are just off the M5 junc 15 at Brook Way in Bradley Stoke, next to Somerfield.
Tel. 01454 614555.
Hope to see you soon.

Some important points for gluten-free fish and chips.
Both chips and GF fish must be cooked in clean oil that has not previously been used to cook ordinary batter, or other products that may contain wheat flour.
Mixing of batter must use separate equipment.
Draining of fish and of chips must be in separate area from anything cooked in batter.
Chips should be pure unprocessed potato, not coated in any way.
Good luck with the venture

There is a fish and chip shop in the South Wales area, they held their first Coeliac night on 6th June 2007 and the next one is planned for Wednesday 4th July 2007.
There is a cafe where you can sit down, the cafe is open 4.30 - 7.30 and the take away is open 4.30 - 9. ish
The sign over the door currently reads Bedonia Cafe and Fish Bar but will soon be changing to The Cafe and The Chippy (They are waiting for a refit). at 35a & 36 High Street, Hirwaun, CF44 9SW Tel 01685 811522- the shop is owned by Lee Penaluna who took the business on a year ago, he intends to run a Coeliac night the first wednesday of each month. the first night saw people travel from Cardiff, Builth Wells, Merthyr, Mountain Ash and Abergavenny. The shop uses Glu 2 Go batter mix and also sells other gluten free products including battered gluten free sausages, onion rings mushrooms, and pineapple fritters with ice cream.
The shop is open for "normal" trade at lunch time then they close to thoroughly clean everything and replace all the oils re- opening at about 4.30.
The shop is "recommended" by the Cardiff Coeliac support group and details can be found on their web site, also on the Glu 2 Go site
