Chippies


For most of last year I had to hear sports media man Howie Kahn go on and on about his man-dates with his favourite rugga buggers at some place called 'Chippies'. I never cracked an invite. Not once. Not even when I was being Howie's slave  intern earlier this year. And then Jambles made it back to Cape Town alive (believe me it is somewhat of a miracle), after various North and South American adventures  and joined me in funemplyment - when one has time for random lunches. I cracked nod to Chippies with Jambles. Cue massive excitement.

 Turns out this famed little place is right next to Bishops - how on earth had I never noticed it before?! Probably because there is not much to notice. No real decor, four tables, more of a takeaway vibe but good gracious me, if you like them prego rolls then you will love Chippies. 


You can also buy their prego sauce and attempt to make your own at home. Tis all quite wonderful really, and I now feel like I'm in on the guys' secret. I also took photos and embarrassed Jambles, which gave me about as much enjoyment as my fantastic chicken prego, double joy folks!
