Best of British recipes

When travelling to a new country, everyone wants to try national cuisine and local recipes as part of their tasty experience. So what is the traditional British food that people are so eager to have when being in England? First thing that will come to your mind would be probably fish and chips, and this is true, it is very popular among the tourists and Brits themselves. There are many other meals that associate with British identity and are so loved by local folks , such as pies and mash with a generous portion of gravy on top, Shepherds` pie, traditional English breakfast which must consist of sausage, bacon, fried eggs and other complementary ingredients like mushrooms, tomatoes or beans, and of course Sunday roasts. Not so many foreigners might be aware of this, but having Sunday roast with your family or in the circle of close friends on Sundays is very old and warm tradition among the locals. Back in the day children would meet at the parents` house and have a meal together, nowadays the tradition has changed a little and people are mainly gathering in the pubs or restaurants. The most popular meat for Sunday roasts is beef, chicken or turkey, it is served with roasted vegetables (potatoes, carrots, red cabbage) Yorkshire pudding. Short Let London can recommend a list of places that are serving the best Sunday roasts in town: Hawksmoor, The Mall Tavern, Bull & The Last, The Water Poet, The Winchester, The Three Crowns, The Stag. Even if you are coming to London for a short stay, you need to try meals in best English traditions. When renting self-contained holiday apartments and short term flats, you have an opportunity to cook English breakfast yourself and serve it in bed to your other halves, or eat out in the restaurants to avoid being bored of standard hotel menus.
