American in the UK - what do they have to eat?

[bbec]

Can someone explain scouse to me please?

 

[zoezeph]

I've never been to Harry Ramsden's. I've always imagined it being really bland and corporate, with fish & chips that ONLY foreign tourists would enjoy.

PS: what is scouse? I assume its a Liverpudlian dish!

 

[Clay]

Potato, onions & leftover meat if you had it (without it it's blind scouse, and there was no work about)
Sounds simple but I think everyone had their own 'magic' way of doing it.
A good one is divine

The one I had was served with a side of beetroot, that was nice

I've just found this on google. Is this how you guys do it?

Nearest thing here is brown shrimps. Served in a cone. Only the one place to get them as well. It's a day out to look at reeds

Bubble and squeak, another fine working class, waste not want not dish.

Jam roly poly and custard

Mince and dumplings

Rhubarb crumble with custard

 

[yaunclesam]

Rhubarb crumble another thing these Yorkshire people get right

 

[AlexisInfectious®]

I prefer mine with pickled red cabbage.



I don't think my gran used steak in hers, I think it was just lamb - it's one of those dishes that varies between cooks.



Rhubarb crumble is one of my very favourite foods! YUM!

I live not far up the road from Smoggieland and have never wanted to try a parmo. I'm leaving them to the uneducated townie masses.

I can't remember what I had when I was a kid, it's only when I saw it on the menu in New Ferry and had to have some. First taste had the memories flooding back.

It was always lamb for us but as it was a leftover dish I expect it was what was available

 

[SkinnyBitch]

give em a full scottish fry up for breakfast! The uninitiated always eat too much before stopping and then once the huge mass of food starts to settle in their stomach, they start to feel really ill!

 

[Hilal]

some proper black pudding, from a traditional butchers not the super market

A proper hand made cornish pasty is a must, I had a fantastic one from a bakers in Bideford and it was the best I've ever eaten

 

[DrGonzo]

Best breakfast's I've had have been in Scotland, even like those silly sausages (although I don't really like proper sausages)

 

[Lanta]

I had a Yorkshire sandwich last time I was up there.

Yourshire pudding filled with beef and gravy. Never found anything remotely close down south.

 

[animluv]

Oh you're seriously missing out bud, it's far greater than the sum of it's parts. I know people who've wrinkled their noses when told what a parmo is but they soon cange their minds once they taste it

 

[munky_nuggets]

Got to agree with that, we used to get a great scottish fry up from a little cafe in Annan when ever we went airsofting absoloutely fantastic

 

[truthgiver]

Afternoon tea, cucumber sandwiches, scones & homemade cake with of pot of tea

 

[iknobeauty<3]

Hmm this is what I had when in Guanzhou!!

pretty english? :' )

LFD

 

[Cypher]

I didn't know what parmo was, so did a quick wikipedia search.



It looks disgusting.
