JWL Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 This is becoming a monthly thread. Anyway, quite like The Gorgie Fry, but the best in Edinburgh.................L'alba D'oro just off Dundas Street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moriarty Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I would say the BBQ actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wattie Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I remember the days when the BBQ was untouchable. Recently though, it has been bad enough to put me off the chippy altogether. Tbh, I would only buy a fish supper from the Anstruther Fish Bar now - not much use if you're just popping out in Edinburgh I realise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.N.T.H. Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Hate to be Mr Pedantic, but it's the Bar-B-Que. Very good chippie, by the way. Closely matched by Monte Bianco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P-Dizzle Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 BBQ is ok. My vote goes to Monte Bianco just up the road from me, over the road from Prego. Top notch chippy, plus they do fresh pizza and very good kebabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hungry hippo Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Balgreen Fryer It's near my house but I still walk past it to go to the Gorgie Fry instead... unless I'm feeling really lazy. It's not bad but I never thought I would see the Balgreen suggested as the best in the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellycopter Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 I think the BBQ is the best. The one at Roseburn is horrible. Anstruther is over rated imo. There's a really nice one in Coatbridge, but I'd never find it again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddie Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 pentland fry has never let me down Chrissy, sorry but have to disagree. I was in there just last week and thought it was hot & fresh enough, but pretty tasteless. Agree with the previous poster, Globetrotter in Brunstfield is superb, with an honourable mention to the Chip Inn at Oxgangs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty good, as is the Deep Sea opposite the Playhouse, although you have your wits about you there late at night with all neds hanging around the Omni.

davemclaren Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 The Gorgie does a nice fish and chips but the Tailend is first class. Never tried the L'alba D'oro pla(i)ce but Tam Cowan raves about it so will do one day. My local chip shop ( Pia's ) is pretty damned good as well. Is this the same answer I gave last month?
