Barm or Batch ?

COB COB COB COB COB

When I first went to Liverpool to watch Everton, I went to a fish and chip shop, and I ordered a 'barm' as I had no idea what it was, you can imagine my disappointment when it turned out to be a bread roll

I mean it depends where you’re from doesn’t it ? That said @Nobby Nobbs nailed it , crusty cob otherwise a barm . I’ve no real idea what a batch is but if someone calls a barm that I’m presuming that live somewhere other than Liverpool.

Also @PhilM correctly addressed the lolly ice debate .

What did you think they were going to bring you , only so I can accurately estimate your level of disappointment

Just the barm? I feel like the shop could've helped you out a bit there.

Something very familiar about this thread

Something exotic, like a bit of swede, seeing as I dared venture North

I once went on a stag do to Budapest and we went into a fairly fancy restaurant while we were waiting for some late arrivals. One of the friends of the groom, who he has known since high school and who doesn't like 'fancy stuff' ordered a sea bass with potatoes and 'sausage chips'.

He was absolutely fuming when the waiter placed down some sea bass, crushed potatoes and chorizo slices - as he thought he was getting full sea bass and a portion of sausage and chips.

I had little to do with him after that moment for the remainder of the weekend.

Would you just plonk the sea bass on top of the sausage and chips?
