Where as British drinks are well respected around the world, the same is not so true of British Cuisine.
We are reasonably happy with it, and are quite loyal to the traditional foods but like Cricket it can seem a bit confusing from the outside.
We do have many great restaurants – especially in London and fantastic home cooks – family favourites - just ask any of our mothers!
- And we do take a lot of interest in other people cooking given the number of Morning and weekend television programs devoted to cooking – however it’s the eating that we tend to focus on!
Somehow British food an unfair reputation with some visitors will generally describe their impression of British food as as Pleasant , ‘nice’ ‘not too bad’ and sometimes as
bland, soggy, overcooked, and visually unappealing.
However that’s a bit unfair , with a rich mix of cultures and restaurants, you can find great food in London but you may need to do some sleuthing – like Sherlock Holmes to find the best ones for your pallet and there are plenty of websites blogs and apps such as Tripadvisor Toptable and bookatable that can help with booking and reviews and you will get a good meal – but may be not as memorable as those on Continental Europe.
Although the company and venue may well be!
Why is this ? - well find out more in this podcast when we explore its hstory and some of the stranger british and London dishes
