My question for the English is where's the beef (Wellington) which I just had to have when I visited back in 2011?

    Never been to England, but they say the fish and chips are a must-try. Made one myself the other day. Tasty!

      Both Waitrose and Marks & Spencer sell particularly good Beef Wellington, for those who can't be bothered to make their own pastry.

      (I think "Battenberg cake" must be terribly old-fashioned, or something? I've seen it, occasionally, at the bakery, but have never tried it.)

      When I go to England, I'm going to try one of those English Muffins I hear so much about.
      And this tea thing. I think I'll try a cup of tea.

      What if they're not stars? What if they are holes poked in the top of a container so we can breath?

          My Recommendations.

          Cherry Bakewell Tarts
          Pork Pies
          Cup of Hot tea made with Tetley teabags, a little milk and sugar to taste.
          Cornish Pasties
          Marmite savory spread on hot buttered toast (love it or hate it)
          Wine Gums
          Liquiroce Allsorts (bassetts)
          Fish and chips, chicken and chips, sausage in batter and chips.
          An English breakfast with Beef or Pork sausages.
          An English cream tea with scones with clotted cream and strawberry jam
          English style doughnuts.
          Clotted cream ice cream (our ice cream much better generally, made with milk)
          Steak and kidney pie.
          Try some of our ales in the pubs.
          Roast beef dinner

          To name but a few.

          Try a Chinese restaurant meal, very different than the US versions.
          Try an Indian restaurant while over there.

        The very first time I ever saw an English Muffin was in a Las Vegas buffet restaurant. I had to ask my wife if we really had such things at home!

        Interesting article, but full of errors. Cottage Pie, for example, is beef, while Shepherd's Pie is lamb. Obvious really.

          I thought Shepherd's Pies were ideally made from "quality, fresh shepherds"??

    England is known for its stylish ladies and hearty cuisine.

    When did this happen?

    I'd actually love to head to an English pub. My friends keeps bragging that the beer is 10x better that the stuff we have in the states.

      Eew, well, I don't know about the beer, but that Pimms, mentioned in the original article, is certainly ok!
