London, United Kingdom
6 dishes to eat in London, what is in them, and where they belong.
Battered white fish and thick-cut chips, with mushy peas and vinegar. A good independent shop beats every chain.
Eggs, bacon, sausage, beans, tomato, mushroom and toast. A café version costs a fraction of a hotel one.
Britain's Bangladeshi and Pakistani cooking is a national cuisine in its own right. Tooting and Southall out-cook Brick Lane.
Minced beef pie, mashed potato and a green parsley sauce — East End working food, in a shrinking number of shops.
Boiled beigels with salt beef and mustard, sold 24 hours at the north end of Brick Lane.
Batter baked in hot fat until it rises hollow. In Yorkshire it precedes the meat as its own course.
