The Best Hot Chips in Riverland, South Australia

I seriously have not heard of anyone who does not go crazy over good hot chips. 

We can eat hot chips with so many different sauces and seasonings. You can have them with plain salt, chicken salt, tomato sauce, chilli sauce, rich brown gravy or black pepper sauce. My husband and I absolutely love eating hot chips. We like our hot chips to be served with chicken salt and a generous dollop of sweet or hot chilli sauce. 

When our favourite local deli closed down one day, my husband and I were very upset. It is very easy to buy hot chips anywhere in Australia, but it is very hard to find the best hot chips in Riverland, South Australia. Some hot chips we bought elsewhere were just lacking in the right amount of seasoning and crunch. Some were even too soggy for us to savour. The local deli that closed down had been the best hot chips that we have ever tasted in Riverland, South Australia. 

After hearing news that the deli was closing down, we shared with our friends from another town about our disappointment that we would not be able to buy good hot chips anymore. Our friends suggested that we try getting the hot chips from the Caltex petrol kiosk in Berri, Riverland, South Australia. Berri is a small town situated about 15 minutes drive away from where we live. 

We initially had difficulty finding the place as it is in quite a secluded area at the outskirts of Berri town. However, after getting directions from a friend who goes there to get her hot chips, my husband and I finally found the place. 

When we ordered our hot chips, we were asked whether we wanted a small, medium or large packet of chips. There were sample packets at the counter to show us roughly how big the packets were. We decided to get the medium packet because we felt that it was the right amount of chips for both of us to snack on for tea time. 

We waited for quite long time for the chips. When we finally got our chips, we were surprised when the staff handed to us a huge packet of chips instead of the medium packet of chips that we initially thought we were going to get. That ‘medium’ packet that we ordered had enough chips to last us for a snack, a dinner and a supper!

The chips were absolutely fantastic…with the right amount of crunch and chicken salt. I guess I just found my favourite hot chip shop in Riverland, South Australia. I shall crown these hot chips as the best hot chips in Riverland, South Australia…until I find another shop that sells better hot chips than this one. 

Got your favourite hot chips experience?
