"Loving visiting the North of England. Liverpool has some incredible architecture and really friendly people. But year, fries and curry sauce. I would never have thought of it."
In the video he spoke about his excitement and shock of discovering the 'chip culture', only tripping up and calling them 'fries' once.
He said: "I'm here in Liverpool and if you're in the north of England you might notice about their chips – they like to put stuff on them.
"You'll see gravy on chips – chips and gravy – I actually got chips and curry.
"It's like a curry sauce on top of the fries, and honestly this is pretty dang good. I would definitely get this again.
"You can see the seagulls are waiting for me to drop something because they're all of the place here.
"But yeah, curry and chips? Pretty dang good."
