TJIPS is the new restaurant Joburgers never new they needed. Located in Eastgate Shopping Centre’s Food Emporium, this eatery brings international flavours, spices and recipes all together in one delicious plate of fries. TJIPS is an entire restaurant dedicated to South Africans’ favourite side dish: hot chips.
With the tagline ‘more klap than slap’, TJIPS promises meals packed with a punch. Each mouthful will leave you wanting more, a testament to the delicious recipes the eatery has conjured up. From classic pomme frites, to the El Supremo with salsa, guac and sour cream, there are chips in all mouth-watering forms of dishes here.
Some fries come covered in bright pink garlic mayo, and the parmesan chips are smeared in black truffle mayo. For the meat-eaters, there is a chip dish inspired by the Canadian poutine that is doused in meat gravy. There’s even a dessert option here: sweet fries topped with ice cream.
TJIPS will be running a dish of the month, every month – for February, it’s ‘The Joburger’, a plate of delicious fries covered in a smashed burger with cheese sauce and all the fixings.
The chip bar aims to rapidly expand this year, with plans to open another store in Fourways Mall.
