Posted on 21/11/2018 20:43 by WherenextWe did once have an Indian curry in Paris in a proper Indian Restaurant! As the proprietor was originally from West Bromich I count that as British.

Yeeuuk!
In my experience you are more likely to see 1 of three sorts of non Parisian restaurants there. Either a regional French one such as from Alsace, or Asian, mainly Vietnamese, or surprisingly a McDonalds. I was really surprised to read somewhere that France has the most McDs outside of America, can't remember if it's numerically or per head of population.

Haggis
The first known written recipes for a dish of this name, made with offal and herbs, are as "hagese", in the verse cookbook Liber Cure Cocorum dating from around 1430 in Lancashire, north west England,[7] and, as "hagws of a schepe"[8] from an English cookbook also of c. 1430.
Would you believe it! From the land of the black pudding!, allegedly!

Posted on 22/11/2018 20:21 by WherenextDoesn't surprise me Micky. Mrs WN, a Lancastrian, has always maintained that Lancashire can be proud to have given the world Black Pudding, Tripe and Haggis. Bring on the deep fried Mars bar I say.
