A YouTube star has been blown away after trying Paolo Nutini's family chippy in Paisley. 

Danny Malin, who presents Rate My Takeaway, travels across the country to sample the UK's best and worst takeaways. 

The social media sensation, who is so popular he has his own 'Rate my Takeaway' merch, popped into Castelvecchi fish and chip shop on New Street.

The chippy is run by Alfredo and Linda Nutini, who are the parents of the Pencil Full of Lead singer.

Danny ordered haddock and chips, a king rib and steak pie, a tub of gravy and curry sauce.

Setting up his table and chair outside the chippy, Danny told the viewers: "Paolo's dad's gonna whip us up a delight... I'm looking forward to this."

It wasn't long before Alfredo delivered the goods and Danny tucked in.

Commenting on the steak pie, Danny said: "The pastry, that's delicious, golden pastry, it's got a nice crunch to it and then the steak filling, nice bit of steak filling in there."

He was less enthralled by the king rib, saying: "If I'm honest I'm just not sure if it's for me."

Danny was impressed by the fish supper which he said had a 'nice white bit of fish' and 'thick crispy batter'.

He loved the curry sauce, commenting as he dipped his chips: "Oh my days, look at that, you could paint your walls with that, that is really nice, thick curry sauce, absolutely fantastic."

But it was a surprise dish brought out by Alfredo during the tasting that impressed Danny - a fried onion pizza.

Alfredo told Danny that a customer recommended he should try it, and despite it not being something Danny would order 'in a million years', he enjoyed it. 

He said: "Lovely... that's something I would order again, never in a million years would I have ordered that.

"Whoever recommended that fried onion pizza, wow!"
