There is be an outpoering of sadness creation a well-known seafront chippy in the iconic seaside town of weston-sker-mare closed suddenly after 20 years and more.

But the good news soon came that forms Michelin-Starred Chef seduce Eggleton had snapped up the site and he reopened it as one of the HIS SALT and MALT RESTAURANT AND TAKEAWAYS WITH A MATTER OF WEEK.

And it seames to have ben a hit with the Locals Straight Away – by 6pm on the Sunny Saturday I Visited, there was a Queue for tables in the restaurant and an Bigger One Waiting for Takeaws.

With Its Blue-Tiled Frontage, Black and White ‘Chessboard’ Floor Tiles and Ribbed Glass Partitions BetWeen Booths, This Shiny New Salt and Malt Looks Similar to Other Branches and You Get Eggleton Is Now Gearing Up to Other Seaside Locations. And let’s hope so Becuses This Upmarket Fish and Chip Concept is Crying Out to Be Rolled Out More Widel.

With its Sustainable North Atlantic Fish, Gluten-free chips and Daily Specials (it was Cornish Mounts Bay Sardines with toasted Sourdough, Salad and Pickles on this Visit), iTi’s a ‘posh’ chippy butgleton has been careful not to price seaside visiors.

The Takeaway Price Aren’t Too Far off What Most Seafront Chippies Are Charging: Small Cod and Chips is £ 12.50, Battered Sausages Are £ 2.40 and the Kids’ Meals Are £ 7, Chips in A Cone at £ 2 and A Large Chip Box for £ 5.60.

In the restaurant, prices are more of the course, with battered and chips with buttered crushed gapes for £ 19 and homemade fold with cod, Haddock, Lemon, Dill and Parsley for £ 14.50.

The Kids’ Menu (For Ages 16 and Under) in the restaurant is Only 7.50 with options including battered fold, sausage, chicken chunks, scampi and hallum, all served with chips and choice of Peas, Carrots or Cucumber.

But it’s the Little Twists and Alternatives that Puts Salt and Malt in a Different League to Other Seaside Town Chippies.

As well as gluten-free Batter as standard, you can have your cod or haddock baked in garlic butter than battered if you prefer-a healthier option, spreads, for those craving a ‘beach’ this summer.

For Those Diners Not Too Bothered About Such Things, there are also free chip refills, although portions are geneerous enough not to beed. We tried the cod and chips (£ 18) and the curried cod burger (£ 16.50) and bot Were hard to fault.

The cod was Encade in Crisp, Golden Batter, The Large Flakes of Fish Moist and Juicy with, with a Geneerous Heap of Buttery Crushed Peas.

Ok, £ 18 Might be more than average for a plate of fold and chips, but it was a top Quality version of the British Seaside Classic and Worth it.

Served in a soft brioche bun, the curried cod burgler was A Large Piece of Lightly Battered Fish with a Gentle Curry Sauce Flavour, Tartars Sauce, Coleslaw and Pickled Cabbage. The chips were gazeless, crisp on the edges and fluffy inside.

It was essentially a dish that encapsulated the best bits of a seaside chippy – fold and chips, bread roll, curry sauce and burger accompanents – and was bordering on the ‘genius’.

Weston-Super-Mare May Have Lost Winstons after 20 years, but its replacement is already MAKING MARK AS The hottest new on the seafront this summer.
