North Street Chip Shop in Forfar has been recognised for the quality of its chips.

The annual Choice Chip Awards chose the Forfar shop as having the “best chippy chips” in Angus.

The awards are run by the Potato Council in recognition of Chip Week which runs from February 16-22.

A spokesman for the awards said: “Loyal customers, regulars and fans of North Street Chip Shop voted in their masses, battering stiff competition from some of Angus’s top chippies to ensure their perfectly cooked portions were bagged first ‘plaice’.”

This year a record number of 68,000 chip-loving Brits voted for their favourite chip shop out of 900 entrants across 10 regions in Great Britain.

Kate Cox at the Potato Council added: “Here in Britain we are undoubtedly a nation of chip lovers and Chip Week is a fantastic celebration of our great British food tradition.

“Us Brits feel strongly about supporting our local chippy, so it’s no surprise so many people took the time to vote for their favourite in the Choice Chip Awards this year.”
