Why isn’t this place talked about more? It’s one of the only takeout seafood places.
>>22274900not everyone lives in a white trash area like you
>>22274905You don’t know shit jack
Probably because it sucks.
>>22274900Because fish and chips is not a thing in America and never will beAnd 90% of youtube food reviews in the UK are at chippies lolIt's all they have
>>22274971It really is. Most bars and variety restaurants sell them, not to mention pure seafood joints.
>>22274971We do fish and chips a bit differently down South.
>>22274982just like slavery huh?
>>22274984Yes exactly like that.
>>22274900All seafood places are takeout. This one is the only seafood FAST FOOD drive through place. And that's not a good thing. People ignore LJS because most of them are closed and they've always sucked.
>>22274989>they've always sucked.much like your posts anon
Ever noticed that people love disgusting things, and don't like good things? That's why.
>>22274996Btfo
>>22274900Ours closed a few years ago, I miss it. I use to go there every few months
>>22274900Used to be connected to A&W and I could get frosty mug with my meal and it was great. Then they just slowly disappeared. I thought they had gone under for a long time until I saw some youtuber raving about them. Looked them up and there was only one in my city and it was in THAT part of town.But recently a new one opened closer to me so I gave it a shot. The cashier was a really nice girl she said I had pretty eyes and was clearly flirting with me. But she was a little too fat and I think she must have some kind of mental disability she gave off that kind of vibe. Waited ages on my order they said they were making it fresh but then the drive through stole my food somehow so they had to remake it. It was good, the breading they use is unlike any other place I've tried. But it was super greasy, can't imagine eating there often without having the worst shits. Also it was insanely expensive, two small pieces of chicken and one piece of fish and some hushpuppies was 15 dollars didn't even come with a drink. Doubt I'll go back but I don't regret it, I wish fried fish culture was bigger in the US. I envy the fish and chips the UK bros have.
>>22274971>Because fish and chips is not a thing in America and never will beThat's because we can't get fresh fish
>>22274971>And 90% of youtube food reviews in the UK are at chippies lolI've been watching some of these recently and it's wild how much depth they'll go into over such a plain and simple food. At least with other shit in that niche like pizza or burgers then there can be a big variation in preparation or toppings but this shit is literally just battered fried fish. There's no variation, there's no seasoning, and they'll go into these fucking essays over the details of the crispiness of the batter, is there the right amount of oil, what's the texture of the interior batter, has too much oil from the batter dripped onto the chips, etc etc. Poor fuckers.
>>22274971>Because fish and chips is not a thing in AmericaActually LJS doesn't have chips. They only have waffle fries. Maybe good UK-style chunky chips is what they're missing.
>>22274971>Because fish and chips is not a thing in AmericaAbsolutely retarded. I'm in rural PNW, and EVERY bar and pub does fish and chips (usually as a Friday special if it's not on the menu). People go apeshit for it. Mostly cod and halibut from alaska. Some places even have proper vinegar to dip in. No mushy peas tho. That's fag shit.
>>22275227>there's no seasoningI watch them too but they do add seasoning and there seems to be a lot of variation, that's why they do the reviews, it seems people like you are bitter that you have never been there and tried them for yourself.
>>22274900The only one near me closed ages back. I miss the hushpuppies sometimes but nothing else really.
>>22275235my son there is not a single person who is "bitter" over never having eaten british foodit's notorious for being some of the worst food on the planet
>>22275258>it's notorious for being some of the worst food on the planetOnly by Americans who have never been there.
>>22275258Really it's just English food. Scottish and Irish is pretty okay.
>>22275262You don't actually believe that, do you? Name literally one British dish that has any sort of popularity in other countries.
>>22275266>literallyHumouring a 12 year old, no thanks kid.
>>22275267Yeah, that's what I thought.
>>22274900The one near me went fucking downhill fastLast time i went there for popcorn shrimp, instead of actual Long John's shrimp it was literal store-bought generic brown frozen shite
>>22274971I'll agree to an extent with this lady. Whilst her assessment that 90% of food reviews are fish and chips is estrogen laden hyperbole, she is right that we put a great significance on it. What I will say is that I've been to Long John Silver's in Boston and it's awful. The calibre compared to even the shittest place in the UK is well below. We're lucky to be able to get the freshest white fish from the greatest area. And our potatoes are usually of a high quality. But at the end of the day it's just fish and chips.
>>22275221America has better and fresher fish than bong land ever will
>>22275735This is a risible comment. It can't be from an actual American, surely it's from a subcontinental troll?
>>22275769Fish tends to be fresher in the UK on average due to its smaller island geography, shorter supply chains from local day boats (such as those docking at Brixham and other UK ports), and rapid distribution to markets and fishmongers. Suppliers frequently source directly from regional quays and local fleets, allowing fresh, never-frozen wild-caught fish (like cod, haddock, plaice, and mackerel) to hit counters within 24 to 48 hours of landing. North Atlantic white fish is globally renowned and considered a premium standard.
>>22275783No thanks. I'd rather tilapia farmed in Mississippi, frozen and distributed cross country.
>>22274971Well Americans dont do "chips", we do fries. But yeah its easy to get fried fish and fries at most places near a coast.
>>22275266Full English breakfast. Its probably not fully authentic but I've gotten that at many places in the Northeast USA.
>>22275819You can get some form of full English across hotels, at least, throughout the world. Even in the achlachlach type of countries, but they usually do beef sausages and lamb bacon.
>>22274900could only survive in middle america, everywhere along coast, there are ten local seafood places with fresh seafood, especially along gulf of AMERICA, available for call in takeout
>>22275783lol imagine thinking cod is desirable fish, we have trout son, and blue crabs, n oysters n shiet
>>22277623>lol imagine thinking cod is desirable fishYou have never eaten it lol> we have trout son, and blue crabs, n oystersso does the rest of the world lollol you are not as unique as you think you are lol
>>22277623cod, haddock, whiting, pollack, hake, halibut, perch, mackerel, herring, atlantic bluefin tuna, plaice, turbot, brill, sole, brown trout, rainbow trout, salmon, brown crab, lobster, langoustine, prawns, shrimps, scallops, oysters, cockles, clams, mussels.Fuck off with your faggoty "son" and "n sheit". You little wigger cunt. The likes of you are so fucking tiresome especially when being smug, haughty, arrogant and completely fucking ignorant. Also "lol": what are you, a fucking 13 year old? Cock.
>>22275826Lamb bacon sounds pretty good actually, i would try that
>>22277684I've had "macon", it's quite good. When I've had it, it's more thinly sliced and less generous because it's a more expensive meat. So sort of pointless. A couple of mouthfuls per portion.
>>22274900Captain D's is better
The tendies are so fucking good
>>22277807>chicken basket
>>22274905ThisRip capn Dees
>>22274982Southern cooking is just stolen and worse quality African American cooking
>>22274994Holy fucking tastelet!
>>22274900Based. I love LJS's fish platters. I always love ringing this fucker too
>>22277904Lmao I broke the one when drunk
>>22277960>(you) when having LJS drunk
>>22277661>>22277679Lol shiet theres a reason people travel to New Orleans for the food, no one ever travels to britian for the food, infact no one travels to britian at all, ill always remember the pasty brit at the dock in Florida amazed at the catch we hauled in, you brits dont get Mahi Mahi, redfish, flounder, snapper. price per pound of shrimp, oysters is so cheap compared to bongland, crab is a delicacy over there, dont even pretend brown crab is anywhere close to blue crab in taste
>>22274971>Because fish and chips is not a thing in America and never will beeither you've never been to america or you're from kansas or oklahoma or some shit. There are probably more dive bars that serve fish and chips in my shitty small coastal state than there are in the entirety of UK
>>22278104>Never been to Britain but is an expert on Britain and Britains fish I'm sure the Bongs value your opinion.
>>22277960Believe me, no one thought it was hilarious.
>>22278117List the number of restaurants in the US specializing in fish and chips like an English chippy, retard
>>22278142Bongs live in there lil bubble island, serves them well to be conquered by browns, keep living in your bubble bongboy, i know for a fact american gulf seafood is the best hands down in the entire world only chanks can compete, ain't no way brits and europoors have better seafood than gulf of AMERICA, negro please just stop YALL make yourself look embarrasing
>>22274994It's just cornmeal? What's wrong with it?
kek. why don't you just pour yourself a glass of oil and chug it down instead?
>>22274900I haven't had a LJS near me for at least 15 years now, the closest one is 19 miles away in Chicago and no fucking way am I driving that far for their food. Honestly the only time I went to the local one, the food sucked and the place was a dump, you could feel the fryer grease hanging in the air. Blech. When I was a kid in the 80's, it was a decent place to eat and had failry nice decor, as best as I can remember. So was A&W, too, and that got degraded and ruined over time, too...
>>22278104Haha you get rekt wee man. Bet you were shaking when you were typing
>>22275258>it's notorious for being some of the worst food on the planetUnironically only because indians and russians are incredibly butthurt over the UK's foreign policy a hundred years ago. I'm scandinavian and all british food I've eating in britain is just fine
>>22274994I agree and I grew up with southern food. The way that bongs batter their fish is way better.
>>22278192>oh yeah? name 500 places!"specializing in fish and chips" nigger it's just battered fried fish with a side of fries google seafood restaurants that serve fish and chips in new jersey/massachusetts etc it's basically impossible to countthere are hundreds of places that look identical to this in new england
>>22274971Plenty of places to dish and chips because plenty of places already do fries and other fried food, retard. How good it will be varies greatly, but then that's the case in britain as well.>>22278192>Oh you say that America doesn't do fish and chips? Well how many places specifically specialize in it?Gonna throw out your back moving those goalposts, ma'am.
>>22278688Not them but there are shitloads of places serving fried fish with french fries where I live even in middle of nowhere, midwest. I think you're trying to say that "fish and chips" isn't something that we consider a cornerstone of American cultural cuisine like a hamburger or a milkshake. We don't identify with it the same as the Brits do.
>>22278688God damn you are mad that you got told off like the retard you are. Every bar has fish and chips, as do a lot of restaurants. That's them being a thing, since you know, it's available everywhere. Kill yourself.
>>22278688There’s 3 places in a 1 mile radius that serve fish n chips. I’m on the north side of Indianapolis, not even a big city
>>22278655>>22278673>>22278699>>22278840Since you retards are incapable of naming the number of restaurants in the US that specialize in fish and chips (lol that was the point, and you retards fucking failed), show me the % of youtube food reviews of US restaurants that specialize in fish and chips>What do you mean?What I mean is 90% of YouTube food reviews of UK restaurants are chippiesSo show me the % of YouTube food reviews of US restaurants that specialize in fish and chipsI know the answer lol
>>22274900Because it’s gray garbage 99% of the time. My grandpa loved it, and i wish it were actually good so I’d want to buy from it
>>22278853>There’s 3 places in a 1 mile radius that serve fish n chips.JFC some redneck No wonder you can't read/comprehendThe point was always "restaurants that specialize in fish and chips" like an English chippyYou know, like Long John Silver's, in OP's post???Holy fuck you chuds are fucking stupidYou are fucking stupid and retarded Get off my fucking board you fucking illiterate dumb fucks
>>22278854You’re being an obtuse retard
>>22274900They're all closed. The closest one to me is 20 miles away.
>>22278858>The point was always "restaurants that specialize in fish and chips"No, the point was always whether or not it's a thing, and if it's offered everywhere then it's a thing. You are the one moving the goalposts now to saying there needs to be a lot of restaurants that specialize in just the fish and chips specifically like your chippy shops.A chippy is just a place that serves fried food with fish and chips being their most popular item typically. Guess what retard? Plenty of places in the states do that and they offer fish and chips. Every sports bar does that, plenty of restaurants do that, they just don't say "fag and bitch chip shop" because that type of advertising wouldn't work in the states like it would in Britain.
>>22278858Your original post just talks about fish n chips, you didn’t specify a restaurant that specializes in it.
>>22278854Seems like just this restaurant alone is pretty popular and they specialize in fish and chips, so suck my fat cock. Plenty of local/regional chains as well but the OP thread topic already blew you the fuck out.
>>22278854>So show me the % of YouTube food reviews of US restaurants that specialize in fish and chipsIt's low because Americans are so bombarded with options that we'd find a basic fish and chips restaurant boring. We'd be far more interested in watching someone review a hole in the wall Mexican joint than another place that sells fried fish. Pic related is a spot that has been open in my town of less than 18k for as long as I've lived here. You won't see a youtuber visit this place because no one gives a shit. Here in the midwest, sunday fish fries happen often where I live at fucking church lol.
>>22278854Here's another that specializes in fish and chips. Quite a few locations too, interesting.
>>22278854One more, though this is more like one of your fancier places that specializes in fish and chips. Still located all around the US. You can do a nicer sit-down experience here but takeaway fish and chips is always an option.Anyway that's just big national brandnames, plenty of smaller local places like other anons mentioned. You'll reply to all three of these places and pretend it doesn't count but not be able to give an actual reason.
>>22274971Mainefag here, you are retarded.>>22275221America has coasts facing two different oceans.
for some reason i can't find good and cheap fish and chips in california even though we are on the ocean
>>22274900The hush puppies were amazing 20 years ago, I can't imagine I could eat them today without throwing up. I doubt there's a single ingredient in them that's the same. Everything has been enshittified.
>>22279722IT WON'T STOP RAINING
>>22274905i live in non-USA and there's one Long John's 30 mins away.>>22274900i agree but they stopped competing with other fastfood prices long ago, so they're all overpriced now. also pollock fish sucks. their "dory" fish is superior. shrimp of okayish. the calamari rings seem to go on and off the menu randomly around here. no idea why. i like those too.
>>22277845>African American cookingyou eat bugs like the somalian americans?

>>22280614It's quite nice when someone is a tripfag because it means that you can easily skim over their dogshit posts. I won't be reading one of hers again.
>>22280720do you have single haggis factcheck to back that up? no? i thought so!
>>22274982>down South.So tired of this meme.Good food has always been about quality of ingredientsTechniqueSeasoning
>>22279722>Mainefag hereStick to cranberries then, fucking cooklet.>>22279722>America has coasts facing two different oceansTHREE discrete bodies of water.Stay onshore, retard.
>>22280861> two oceans>> THREE DISCRETE BODIES OF WATERyeah.. so you’re adding to their point about being able to get fresh fish in America
>>22280874>so you’re adding to their point about being able to get fresh fish in AmericaThat's NOT the point of the thread.Fish and Chips is simply not eaten in America anymore, and tat is the Topic.
