I have been attempting (and I use the term loosely) to eat healthier. With that said, I took a few days off for a friend’s Bachelor Party. His dream bachelor party was a road trip to some of the Tastiest Places to Chowdown as per Travel Channel. Our first stop on this epic road trip was Atlantic Chip Shop in Brooklyn, who were featured for their Deep Fried Pizza.
That is right folks, what you see there a lot of fried goodness. We start with the deep fried pizza. A basic NYC style slice of pizza battered and deep fried served cut up in 2 pieces. Behind it are deep fried mac and cheese. A healthy portion of mac and cheese fried up. We also decided to throw in a plate of fries. Not pictured is the dessert we had…. deep fried Mars Bar!
Now that you might have had a minor heart attack just hearing about this; time for the details. The mac and cheese was bland initially but with a little pepper and hot sauce I really enjoyed. The pizza was something else. I really did not expect much, but much to my surprise it was pretty damn good! I had the first piece plain and was impressed. On the second piece I threw some vinegar on top for a bit of a kick. Finally the mars bar! This was the deal sealer, simply amazing!
The big question is would I go back, honestly I would probably never go back, but I would highly recommend Chip Shop to others. It is one of those things everyone needs to try at least once. For one day forget being healthy and enjoy.. but make sure you finish with one of their fried candy bars.
Keep checking back as I will be writing about the other stops on what I dubbed the 3 Million Calorie Road Trip.
