Fat chips or thin chips, dip or pour, Jimi samples three different spice bags where chefs are adding their own personal touches to this growing trend. From Mc&Sons in Vauxhall who bring the ‘craic’ to their bag, to the Filipino-inspired Lasa adding calamansi to their curry sauce, and finally Hawker Dan giving this junky food a Michelin-style glow-up.
