6? More like 5 1/2.

To be fair it was in Liverpool - The waiter probably stole the rest of the chips .

The Daily Mirror with more hard hitting journalism.

What a story.

Does that story make sense?

She went out for dinner with her husband, yet he laughed when she sent him a photo over Whatsapp? Didn't the restaurant have a bigger table so they could sit together?

I bet she was a bit of a chubster and the staff thought she needed to lose a few pounds.

They're probably on everyone's shoulders.

blimey, what a disgrace, two meals for £10 too, suppose she wanted a starter and a dessert for that as well.

About 15 years ago went to an Italian restaurant in Bexley Village and my steak came with Jenga Chips which consisted of 6 chips in a stack.

I was thinking maybee they were puting her as a bigamist.

She went out with her husband and 2 friends

Her husband was at home with the 2 children

TBF they're quite long chips - or the fish is really short

Less than 100 peas as well. Flaming Grill.

I made it 104

It could be a deep-fried fish finger. No-one in Liverpool would be any the wiser.

Seeing as it was in Liverpool they should have checked to see if extra ones had been accidentally mixed in with the abundance on their shoulders.

Stan Boardman says the Germans bombed the chip shop, hence the shortage

Chips? In my day it was a pukka pie or nothing.

I ate a lot of pukka pies as a child.

Tina had gone out for dinner with her husband, Kevin, and two friends to the Jolly Miller.
...
Husband Kevin, 60, said: “...I was at home with our son and daughter".

Unless Kevin lives at the Jolly Miller, Tina needs to get her story straight!

Pelling1993

I think my favourite part of that story is that the Husband was eating a curry with both rice and chips

It's odd what threads on here you remember a year after originally reading them...

The original story as the OP link no longer works: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5057297/Diner-53-blasts-pub-getting-SIX-chips-fish.html

It would appear this restaurant knew what they were talking about after all: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-6446933/A-portion-fries-contain-SIX-Harvard-professor-declares.html

I ordered onion rings in the Bugle once and got 6.

Was once told a minimum portion of chips at a restaurant should be 5 oz when i complained.
