Top award for Retford chippy

JM’s Restaurant and Takeaway in Retford has joined the fish frying elite by scooping the prestigious Fish and Chip Quality Award.

The National Federation of Fish Friers (NFFF), the trade body that represents the nation’s fish and chip shops, runs the scheme to raising standards and enhance the profile of the industry.

The scheme rewards and promotes shops that provide good quality products and high standards of hygiene, as well as friers who show a high level of competence.

To qualify, each shop has to go through an inspection by an NFFF Approved Assessor who assesses the shop’s presentation, hygiene and cleanliness, staff training, equipment, frying and sales skills and most importantly the quality of the cooked product.

The award sets the new benchmark for quality within the industry, and signals to the consumer that they can buy with confidence.

Each award is valid for two years and retention is dependent on standards being maintained as validated by NFFF officials and appointed assessors.
