Danny ordered the special with peas, gravy, curry sauce and a breadcake along with a tea with his fish & chips. He also got a cheeky sugar free pop.
What’s special about the special I here you ask? Well, it’s basically a giant version of the classic dish. So large in fact that it comes on two separte classic newspaper sheets. It looks more of a challenge for Beard Meats Food than a a lunch time treat.
Descibring his meal Danny says: “It’s like a whale init… These chips look alright you know. They are nice. Got a nice flavour and they’re crispy.”
Danny was instantly impressed by his fish & chips offering saying “wow”. He carried on saying “Look at that fish fillet that is amazing. That is a nice white, chunky piece of fish. That tastes amazing. It has a beautiful crunch and a beautiful taste.”
Danny finished his meal with a cheeky fish & chip butty rounding off the video saying: “For me the spot is value for money. For me they’ve done a really good job.”
Danny rate the Mermaids Fish Bar in Harehills a 9.5 out of 10.
