Someone told me that britishfood was <deleted> ! Is it really that bad ?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Depends on where you buy it. Chips (steak fries for the septics) up North are crap and mostly so in London, but they have improved out of all recognition in the rest of the country. Pub grub varies, again depending on where you buy it, but good pubs sell great food. Add a decent pint of real beer and heaven can sod-off 'coz I'm already there.

Great Britan has given the world many great and wonderous things.

Unfortunately, It's Cuisine was not one of them.

Not a vegetarian then?

As Noodles prooves the British cusine is fantastic.

Most people think its all fish and chips or curry.

Not many 'British' restuarants about, because of the preperation/cooking time that goes into this quality food.

Real countryside pubs will always have some on the menu. Home made, just look for the chalk board menu behind the bar or on the wall, and you're in.

Just goes to show what I've been saying for a while now: it's only the cost of making crap Indian rubbish - i.e. cheap - that makes it so successful in the UK. Good food comes at a price which yer average pisshead is unwilling to pay.

I hear ya bro!!!

Funnily enough I was comparing the food in LoS with the Thai food served in the UK, particularly the stuff in a restaurant in Ipswich. The UK Thai food is very good and expensive ( ), maybe it's the need to use pukka meat and other ingredients, but I definitely preferred the Anglicised Thai food to the 'real' stuff.

Perhaps it's the lack of "one pound of noodles to one pound of chillies" that makes the difference.

I spent 3 years in Asia pining for a Ploughman's lunch. I've been back in the UK for 6 months since and haven't bothered to have one.

Perhaps the grass was greener?

And one thing I never realised I'd missed until I was back, being able to have a conversation in English, at normal speed, about in depth things. (Although it took a week to get out of the habit of talking slowly with simple words).

At this time I miss Countdown with Richard Shiitely, even though he a total nob..

I wonder if he is still going?

No worry he is still around, but I thought you should be missing Carol Vorderman rather than some old guy like Richard!

What is this, a menu from the Middle Ages? King Arthurs favorite dishes?

This list above also sounds like the perfect recipe for a coranary!

So little veggies... So what is the incidence of Gout and Gallstones, not to mention heart attacks in England?

I am not a big fan of the French culture, but I have to admit, they have one of the worlds best cuisine. More than makes up for their other faults...

And give me Thai food anytime!

Thai is much healthier for you and better tasting than the artery clogging stuff mentioned above...

But then again, I'm not a British person -

I never had the "pleasure" of English food-

execpt for English muffins.

Just Mr. Kipling's Apple & Blackberry pies

We don't bother listing the vegetables - they come in separate bowls, automatically - peas, sprouts, cauliflower, cabbage, beans, etc, together with the gravy boat! Who thinks listing the vegetables is important? They are always there.

The more I read that long list of Brit-food the more I love this country's REAL cooking. Even simple snacks like Cornish pasties, the real ones not the slurry-filled supermarket crap, are a joy for your taste buds.

In fact that's probably the reason why our food has a bad reputation. Unless you make it yourself the only stuff you can buy is the &lt;deleted&gt; that the stores/bakeries make and they are all, without exception, a disgrace to UK food.

The best food in Thailand: Big C's "E-Sarn" sausages, grilled until very, very, dark, with chopped green chilli, ginger, cucumber and tomato. Absolutely delicious
