    English food

    Since I haven't seen a horrible DR thread lately, figured i'd start one. Anyone else think the brits food is super-underrated actually? Give me a proper English breakfast, with a scotch egg and some bangers for lunch, and fish n chips for dinner. I'm good with that.

    I'd probably lean more towards the Germans for beers to go with those meals, but no one is perfect.

    There's been a few threads about English food on PFA over the years.

    By far and away our best offering is breakfast. There's a lot of variance though, from amazing to so-so (rarely poor though). You have to embrace the black pudding to be true English breakfast.

    Evening meal all we've really got home-spun is fish and chips or pie and mash. Most brits will eat Chinese/Italian/Indian meals burgers/steaks (American) maybe Mexican or some such.

    Most "English" restaurants here will serve a combination of all of the above.

    If you want the best fish and chips, head to a coastal location. Best fish and chips I've had is in Whitby on the Yorkshire coast.

    Some Northern Ireland cousins came to visit once, they couldn’t handle the breakfast sausage here....was way too spicy.

    We went over there and the best part of their breakfast was the sausage, which means the rest of the breakfast was pretty terrible.

    Not a fan of soft boiled eggs or beans on toast....how did that even become a breakfast? WW2 when there was nothing to eat?

    I'm whatever the opposite of a foodie is and appreciated the no frills aspect of English food when traveling.

    Totally see the values in food preparation and eating together but have never been able to give more of a shit than that.

    I watch "BeardMeetsFood"'s youtube channel, and one thing that amazed me is how many restaurants there serve like....a complete mish-mash of "American" food. Pizza, burgers, hot dogs, wings, fried chicken, etc all in one place.

    Also, I think I've seen him in multiple 1950's Americana style diners. I'm no world traveler by any means, but I assumed those didnt exist outside of America.

    Do they still wrap it in newspaper? Most people still use malt vinegar? Or tartar sauce? Man I love tartar sauce.

    No newspaper any more. Recycling before recycling was trendy. But someone decided it wasn't hygienic and it pretty much ended in the 90s.

    Thankfully salt, vineger and tartare sauce are still very much on the menu.

    I must admit I bought cans of Mushy peas and Spotted Dick as a lark.

    Both deserve better names

    Always enjoyed the specialty of the limey bastards...Shepherds Pie with a pint of Murphy’s Stout. Guinness is good but Murphy’s es mucho mejor
