If it can be eaten, fry it – an American proverb.
Okay, we made that up but it’s no secret that our neighbours across the pond are prone to deep-frying confectionery.
But the UK isn’t shy when it comes to covering chocolate in batter – after all, deep-fried Mars bar did originate in Scotland.
Now battered chocolate is coming to the capital. A fancy Soho chip shop is now offering battered Quality Street.
That’s right, now you can fight over the Green Triangle and Purple one in fried form.
Poppies of Soho, in Old Compton Street, will be serving up ‘lucky dips’ of battered Quality Street charging £2.50 for five.
If that sounds like it’s right up your street then hurry to the restaurant soon, where the addition to the menu will be available from 1 December all the way to 25 December.
Yep, they’re even open on Christmas day for those looking to skip the traditional turkey for a bit of fish and chips.
Why wait to fight over the best chocolate bars with your family when you can have a handful of fried goodies to yourself?
The Poppies team has also ranked the famously debateable chocolates, with the Toffee Finger coming out on top:
- Toffee Finger
- The Purple One
- Chocolate Caramel Brownie
- Strawberry Delight
- Toffee Penny
- Orange Crème
- The Green Triangle
- Fudge
- Orange Chocolate Crunch
- Milk Choc Block
- Caramel Swirl
- Coconut Eclair
They’ll be asking for customer opinions and keeping a tally of the most popular flavours, with the possibility of making any favourites permanent menu items.
Of course, if you want to take away the sweets to share among your loved ones, you have the option to pre-order via the shop.
Those who are saying ‘pass’ to the battered chocolates might be interested in giving the traditional sweets as presents.
Good thing then that John Lewis is offering personalised tubs, allowing you to pick and mix your faves.
So fill your boots.
