Classifieds...local food?
Mine has to be Cumberland sausage.
I also love Grasmere Gingerbread, but hate sticky toffee pudding, which is made up the road in Cartmel.
So what's local to you, and what do you love?
What's your favourite...

An elderly couple produced local honey.
Last year I found out that the chap had died, so sad, so his wife decided to stop. Also there has been a honey drought in Britain as a whole.
I miss it on my hot buttered toast and in porridge. The supermarket stuff doesn't taste as yummy.Posted 11 months ago # -

Can't stand Worcester Sauce funnily enough! Passed the Lea & Perrins Factory on my way to school every day for about 5 years when I was in my teens, and it used to make me Gag going past it!

I'm not sure Glasgow has a local delicacy, unless you count all manner of deep fried awfulness. Pizza in batter anyone?!?

Good Lord, where do I start?!?
There's a veritable cornucopia of cuisine from all corners of the Globe, to be found near where I live. Spose the East End is most famous for it's curry houses, these days. Alternatively, I live a spit from Billingsgate Fish Market, but I never get up early enough to actually go and buy owt!
On Saturday, I had some fantastic Caribbean grub, then later on, fish and chips in a riverside pub. And some fantastic locally-brewed beer.
Spoiled for choice, for sure!

Having thought a bit harder, A.R. Jones' Cheese and Onion Pasties are the Daddy of their genre.

Hendersons Relish - none of that 'other' rubbish thank you.
Pale Rider - Kelham Island brewery, a lovely pint indeed.As a child, I remember having a dish known as 'modge and chips' which was left over meat and 'tater pie, put back in a large pan and the gravy added to it, and a shed load of hendersons relish. Served with a copious quantity of home made chips cooked in beef dripping in t' chip pan.
I know of no one else who has ever heard of that, but not sure whether its downright weirdness or what.

In that London's Famous London, I'd say it's the fine beers from Meantime in Greenwhich. Lovely, lovely beer.
On the rural front, I'd say that it's Test Trout, Robinson's bacon, anything I've bagged myself (Rabbit, pigeon, pheasant etc), Hop Back and Stonehenge beers and of course, all that lovely watercress....yum!

Anyway - devon cider, Arbroath smokies, just about any local pasty and pie I've tried from Cornwall to Auchterarder.

Where I live now - Stanforths Pork Pies in Skipton, warm so the juice drips down your chin.
From growing up - I had a Ye Olde Pastie shop pastie the other day and they were much saltier that I remember but still a Bolton culinery institution.
