The Chippy Date is one of the first dates we went on when we started dating. We'd buy a pack of B.B.F. - beer batter fish and chips and, drinks in hand, take a walk to nearby SMU. If it is in the evening, there's a spot next to the pool of water that makes for a pleasant date.
We'd sit there munching away on our yummy fish and chips, or if the mood suits us, a fried sausage and mashed potato, with dessert being a deep fried Mars bar. Gotta give it a try! We actually went on The Chippy Date so often that we got sick of the food after a while and skipped it for several months.
Though it's located next to a busy road, it's relatively peaceful, and there's no need to shout to make yourself heard, unlike other cost-friendly places in the city.
Good for a first date, or anytime you want to talk. We'd sit there until the sky got dark or until we want to go home.
This certainly ranks quite high in our list of budget dates.
Chippy is located at Raffles City, #B1-58. There is another Chippy's outlet at the basement of Far East Plaza, but that doesn't count as The Chippy Date because it doesn't include the walk to SMU.
Menu items ranged from $4-5 each with drinks at $1.50. Normally we'd pop into the nearby Guardian pharmacy to pick up a cheaper drink before we head out. It used to be cheaper. Three years ago, the prices were $3-4. Oh well, cost of living keeps rising in the world's 5th wealthiest country. That's why we have this blog.
Here are the main items on the menu:
1. The Original Cheese Sausage with Mash Potato - $4.00
2. Crispy Calamari (15 Rings) - $4.80
3. Cheesy Curry Chicken (150 grams) with Cheese Sauce - $4.20
4. Beer Batter Style Fish (10 pieces) with Battered Fries - $4.80
(must try! with salt and vinegar)
5. Fried Mars Bar (4 pieces) with Ice Cream - $3.50
