Stick to Tradition! by mrandmrsdevlin
One thing that we found on our trip to England was that sticking to traditional style food seemed to be the most effective way to ensure that you will like what you are eating. We LOVED the pub food; bangers and mash, fish and chips, cottage pie.....it was basic, it was fattening, and it was wonderful!The times that we spent a lot of money for a nice dinner we were less satisfied with our food. For example, we ate at a really nice restaurant in Bath, which had been reviewed extremely well in the local restaurant guide, but both of our meals, although his was beef and mine was pork, were saturated in the same teriyaki-like sauce which was terrible! At other nice restaurants we opted for dishes like fish and lamb, instead of pork and beef, and found that we enjoyed it much more.
