Excellent thread

Good times, another keyword to add to my blocker list "unironically." I might block my own post, good times!

Incorrect.

Try more varied northern food. Black pudding, panacalty, Ham with Pease pudding, that sort of thing.

Also, try some of the huge variety of cakes and biscuits. Date and walnut loaf is a particularly good example of old fashioned British baking.

I fucking hate this, went to this italian place, prezzo; got a pizza and it was legit one of the worst pizzas I've ever had, crust was burnt to shit, sauce and cheese were okay but toppings were basically just put on the pizza after cooking, so when you try to cut the pizza, the burnt crust results in all of the toppings being dragged off, didn't fucking help that it was served on some piece of shit wood that would slide when you put any force on it...

Artisan or not, it was a pile of shit.

The quality of the pie crust is complete garbage compared to literally any european country, the meat inside the pies are just scraps that should've been thrown away.

British "Pies" are literally poverty food for farmers in devon/cornwall and for the destitute masses after WW2 bombings.

Fish and chips is alright.
>>
>>7124418

pakistani owned shops give you the same quality for 4quid, plus drinks included.

>going to a fucking restaurant for fish and chips

It's like going to nandos and paying 10quid for a single chicken breast and 1/2 cup of fried rice and a single tortila roll.

Scones are nice, but clotted cream is absolutely godly. If you've never had clotted cream you need to drop whatever bullshit you're doing right this minute and go to the fucking store to sort your life out. It's the cream of cream.

Only a britshit would think scones and clotted cream taste good, no, not just the average britshit, but the fucking redneck hicks from devon and cornwall.

I dunno how that shit is considered food down in the south, thankfully manchester doesn't tolerate none of that shit.

>>7122750
So, uh..... two sausages, baked beans, ... mashed potatoes????, an egg, mushrooms, and what I'm hoping is blood pudding and not burnt meat patties or something.

I'm not sure what's so great about this, dude. Like, I'm sure there's plenty of good British food, Jesus, but that doesn't seem like it'd be worth bragging about. Just seems like they had surprise company, dumped whatever was in the cupboard and fridge into some pans, and prayed no one would call them on their shit.

There's a shitload to british food. most people just forgot how to cook after the war, rationing fucked the diet
It isn't any worse than, say, german food but obviously it isn't as good as the mediterranean stuff because it's always fucking cold and raining
