Description
I don't know whether the misspelling of potato in the signage was deliberate or whether some wag had added the acute accent to give the place some airs and graces, but it certainly I made me smile when I saw this cafe in Walton-on-the-Naze, Essex.
The understated "probably" when describing their superlative ice cream is just so British too!

Wonderful shot! Loads of character in this little place! L/F!
Richard Reeve replied:
Thank you, Meg. I am still unsure about the accented "e" - was it the cafe owner or someone just making fun of poor spelling?
