Dear all,We would like to invite you to join us for the Chip Shop Tour of E8, this Thursday 21st June. The tour is part of 'E8: The Heart of Hackney', the current exhibition at Transition Gallery.
The tour will lead you to chip shops you never new existed and to well known favourites; exploring the area of E8 through an examination of its chippies. Observe the variety of Formica ‘ranges’, look out for the flying dolphin wallpaper, or meet the Golden Star's Fryer - he thinks all chips are terrible – but possibly creates the best chips in E8!
Along the way sample the fare in one of our three specially designed commemorative chip paper wrappers. Witness live the under-rated art of chip wrapping and poke-folding.
