Carlos,
A subject dear to my heart! I haven't visited the General board for awhile (too many useless threads), but this is truly a special moment!
I am quite partial to both Fried AND Steamed, depending on mood, and the vibe of the particular store.
Unfortunately, Sydneysiders know NOT of the ways of the magical dimmie, and I am forced to gorge myself on each trip to Mecca (Melbourne).
Dimmies up here are full of cabbage, and NOTHING else. A disgrace, and a blight on hard working fish & chip shops throughout Victoria.
Knowing this to be true, I still can't help myself from buying ONE dimmie from every new fish and chip shop I visit up here, in the forlorn hope of finding true dimmie heaven.
Alas, I found one store up here that sold the true meat (of some persuasion) dimmie, and I gorged, and gorged.
Unfortunately they went broke and closed down, despite the fact that I'd spent my entire months wages on fulfilling my dimmie needs....
So now, each time I visit Melbourne, dimmies are on the menu. I have been known to eat 30 odd over the course of a weekend just to make up for what I'm missing up here.
BTW, it may sound like it, but I'm not a fat bastard! If I lived in Vic though, the dimmies would be the death of me.
Now Carlos, I'm well aware that it is only the start of August, but I hereby nominate you the Poster for 2002, due to your tireless efforts in promoting the dimmie throughout the world.
Well done, and have a dimmie for me.
