Chip shop customers queueing around the street for 1,000-calorie deep fried butty

CUSTOMERS have been battering down the door at a chippy for a deep fried butty.

With queues around the block for the chip bap, staff had to shut early after running out at the weekend.

The 1,000-calorie bread roll is filled with chips and a choice of gravy, mushy peas or curry sauce before being deep-fried.

For £2.80, hungry customers also get another portion of chips on the side.

Laura Frere, manager at KP’s Fish Bar in Leeds, reckoned: “It has gone mental.

“We had to close on Sunday because we ran out of food.

“And we had to ring our supplier for an emergency delivery after going through 25 bags of potatoes.

“We had constant queues stretching up the street on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and had to bring all the staff in to cope with demand.

“We’re still busy now. It has been ridiculous.

“The batter just stays on the outside, so the bread is nice and soft and fluffy inside. It’s a mighty meal.”
