Chef Tom Kerridge has been criticised for hiking the price of his fancy fish and chips to a whopping \u00a337. The TV chef faced backlash in June when he sold the classic dish, with about eight chips, at Harrods for a staggering \u00a335.<\/p>\n

Now, just four months later, he's bumped up the price of the Market Day Fish meal, despite previous criticism. Other menu items have also seen a price increase, including coleslaw and peas.<\/p>\n

The fish is deep-fried in "Kerridge's gluten-free batter" and comes with "chips, Matson curry sauce, tartare sauce and pease pudding." <\/p>\n

He's also added an extra \u00a31 to his Kerridge's Hand-cut triple-cooked chips – they used to be \u00a38.50, now they're \u00a39.50. This is the same new price for his Cornish new potatoes with herb butter which have also gone up by a pound.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

His minted peas and hardcore slaw were both \u00a37.50, but they're now both \u00a38.50 each. Some items have seen a significant price hike, like a whole lobster – which was \u00a365, and is now \u00a380.<\/p>\n

However, monkfish scampi has been reduced to just \u00a342, rather than \u00a349. Food lovers have criticised his Harrods prices, with one fuming: "What planet is he on, there is a cost of living crisis. Who can afford his prices?"<\/p>\n

Another grumbled: "Better off doing your own", while another labelled it "too expensive". "Eight chips and a tiny thin bit of fish?", someone raged. "This is pretentious b***ocks."<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Kerridge faced backlash when his new restaurant in the posh department store opened amid the cost-of-living crisis and chippies struggling due to rising energy bills and short supplies.<\/p>\n

At the time, one online commenter said: "The whole of the UK is in a shambles financially… But \u00a335 for a scrawny bit of fish and 7\/8 chips is fine… Oh and the thimbles of sauce."<\/p>\n

Another said: "That's over a quid a chip!"<\/p>\n

The chef, who has two Michelin stars, runs eight restaurants including the Hand of Flowers and The Coach both in posh Marlow, Buckinghamshire.<\/p>\n

He previously defended the cost of his dish, then \u00a335, for the fact the chips were "individually cut up by a person".<\/p>\n
