JZ Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Cooked another of my favourites last night. Fish pie. Equal portions of white fish, smoked haddock, salmon and jumbo prawns in a mild cheese sauce with vermouth, topped with parmesan mash and served with samphire. Beat that. Unless you don't like fish of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allegheny1600 Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Hello. I love take away Chinese food but I can't say its the best in the world though, simply because I haven't travelled the world and tasted everything to make that call! Missy Hi Julia, I wholeheartedly agree with that sentiment! However, of the places I've been and the foods I've tried, not much beats a good full English breakfast (at any time of day!) Bon appetite!

34theletterbetweenB&D Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Indonesian. A Nasi or Bami Goreng, some Krupuk and a large spoonful of sambal oelek and I am all set. Could eat this for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day, and sometimes have... Strangely goes best with a high grade Weissbier or Pale Ale. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trisonic Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Best food in the World? Whatever I am fancying whilst hungry.... Right now that's "Pad Thai" from a certain Thai restaurant in Flagstaff, AZ. Best, Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Western Scottish Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 For UK food nothing like a Steak & Kidney pudding . But it takes a lot to neat a good curry with all the trimmings , naan etc .

RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted May 11, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 11, 2012 A nice roast - difficult to chose between pork, lamb or beef but chicken is further down my batting order than any of them when it comes to roasts. And various other meats done in either a roast or a nice stew also appeal - horse is quite pleasant but I think kangaroo is better, rabbit is nice, hare isn't bad, kid (goat) is pretty good, and pigeon or pheasant are definitely better than the sort of chicken just about everywhere seems to try to sell nowadays.

Belsay Lad Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Surely that only applies if your favourite team is Kilmarnock as their pies were judged the best football pies in the country. As I am originally from the East of Scotland (Hibs/Hearts land) this could start a war as best pies doesn't always equal best football club ... But we won't go there and, in mitigation, enjoy the link taking the mickey out of Edinbro' (Like the panda/tram reference!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozexpatriate Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Cruelty to pies is a hanging offence in Wigan !! Well I have to admit I don't like pie n' peas (though my dad was keen) or Vomit Beer* for that matter either. But I will confess to a fondness for tomato sauce on my pies. * as I've heard in called in northern subtropical climes under the XXXX sign. It's a matter of principle, not taste. As for the best food, my Aunty's pavlova has a special place for me. The best can be found (almost) wherever you go: Stuffed pizza (Giordano's) in Chicago Pastrami on rye (piled up) in New York Salmon from Alaska's Copper River (as prepared in the Pacific Northwest) and yes, the full English breakfast.

trisonic Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Add New York: Corned Beef on Rye I flick/flack between the two. At the moment it is Corned Beef. American Corned Beef is not the same as British - they are both good. Best, Pete/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Worsdell forever Posted May 12, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 12, 2012 Barbecued sausage - HERECY! Boerewors has seriously religious conotations for South Africans. A recent survey of South Africans in the UK found that boerewors was the MOST missed item not obtainable. I believe available in Jacksons butchers in Ruswarp near Whitby. (it is just like a barbecued Cumberland sausage with beef though ) I'll add a couple, Bacon sandwich (especially from the butchers above). Proper 'Parmo', that is one from a takeaway in Middlesbrough but 'Jeff the Chef' ones are good. All healthy then... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
station cat Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Really good quality sausage roll with a tasty meaty sausage and pastry which is simultaneously flaky and slightly greasy (Pethers of Kew, just outside Kew Gardens station if anyone is going to the National Archives. Sadly on the non NA side of the station but well worth a detour). But I don't think it's as good as a good roast dinner or a really good pasta dish. I need to persuade mum to make lasgana (she does excellent pasties too) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonesome_whistle Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Interesting. Much as I like some of the above (the fish pie sounds good and I do like a good roast or a decent curry too) I'm surprised that there has been no mention of steak - has to be rare of course (just as roasts should be if they're beef or lamb). So my nomination is a decent ribeye with a bit of garnish - I'll skip the chips/potatoes, onion rings and other beefeater-type extras as long as it's been cooked as it should be (not all the way throough!) The biggest problem, when eating out, is that many pubs/restaurants struggle with the concept of what a decent lump of seared cow should look like. Hint: it should not be an insipid grey colour all the way through. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
