    I always read “togo” as the African country first, not as “to go”.

      Wait is this a thing? Do Americans legitimately call it “togo”? I came in here to find out what sort of food togo was.

        british ex pat in America. I have said “to take away” and been met with blank looks, until I corrected to “to go”

          I believe the yelp app uses take out, which sounds right.

          American. Can confirm. Highly regarded people are everywhere.

          I think “take away” is valid too. “To take away” just sounds odd.

        No, we do not. We do say “to go” however. OP probably accidentally missed a space.

    I remember when anything from a chippy came wrapped in newspaper. I don’t know why, but I really appreciated that as a kid.

          Or, in this context, a British fish & chips shop

        Fish and chips shop. Traditional and delicious British dish.

          Chips here meaning french fries in the US, not potato chips, which themselves would be crisps in the UK.

        It’s what British people call a drug dealer. It comes from the word chipper, meaning perked-up

      I suppose being wrapped in newspaper would make it feel more scruffy and home made

        I don’t think it was that - the way they wrap it is very quick and professional looking. The texture was nice in particular - a warm parcel of newspaper. Idk.

        There is nothing like a poke of chips. Somehow, something so simple truly has no analog in the US. I really don’t know what they do so differently.

      It was actually ok. I wouldn’t say it was great, but I enjoyed it. It was a Philly cheese steak.

    Mildly infuriating, they weren’t supposed to have the oils touch the inks

    They should have wrapped it on the other side

    You should ask a refund

      In all likelihood, it’s rated for direct food contact on both sides, like the stickers on fresh fruit; you’re meant to be able to safely eat them (although you may not want to).

        Is this the one part of the night qualifies as merely mildly interesting?

        Don’t ask for a refund; demand it. Threaten them if you have to. Tell them you’ll bring the pain if they don’t give you your money back.
