Reporter Megan Jones taste tests the new masala flavoured chips at Arjy's takeaway in Trench, Telford.

  • last year
Owners of a new chip shop have claimed the community has gone crazy over their masala chips.
Arjys on Wombridge Road in Trench, Telford, a fish and chip shop and Indian takeaway, opened three weeks ago without much noise.
The owners, Raj Chatha and head chef Lally Pal, were waiting for the new year to have a grand opening - 'ArjyFest', as Raj put it.
But according to the pair, one menu item has sent their customers crazy: masala chips, so we went to try them out.
