A £37 portion of fish and chips served up in London is being slammed by furious critics.
A TikToker visited Tom Kerridge’s Fish and Chips in luxury department Harrods, and was shocked at what he found.
Food content creator James Dimitri shared his experience on TikTok of the restaurant which sells a portion of Cornish brill with chips for £52, while lobster can cost up to £80.
Part of his “tourist trap” series, Dimitri claimed that the meal was not worth the money, saying the fish was “leaking water all over the plate”.
The video caused a storm online and garnered over a million views in less than a week of it being posted.
One viewer said: “As much as I like Tom Kerridge, he won't be seeing me anywhere near there.”
The restaurant's menu boasts the £37 'market day fish', which is 'caught from day boats in Cornwall', 'coated in Kerridge's gluten-free batter and served with chips, Matson curry sauce, tartare sauce and pease pudding'.
James said: “Northerners, look away now. Hell, Londoners, look away too. I went to Harrods to try Tom Kerridge's £37 fish and chips.”
To kick the meal off, James ordered a beer, saying: “First of all, even the cheapest beer was £9.50.”
He continued: “Here's the fish and chips, it comes with a total of nine whole chips as well as a curry sauce, pea puree, and tartare.

“The batter was nice and crispy, and fish seemed fresh, but the fish was small, and it kept leaking loads of water all over the plate. Non-stop leakage.
“The chips were nice but not elite. I also paid £6 for a bread roll to make a little chip butty. This was pretty good but probably set me back a tenner after adding two chips.”
The food content creator concluded: “Was it worth it? No. It's got a 3.3 Google for a good reason.”
He added in the caption: “Tourist Trap reviews are back, baby. I went to Kerridge's Fish & Chips by @cheftomkerridge at @harrods. Fish & chips with a bread roll and two beers cost me £70.”
