We often have a first non positive impression on English food. We all remember the bright green peas on our school trip! I'm going to show you that despite the preconceived ideas we can eat well in London!
Fish and chips
Here is the great classic of British cuisine! Originally it was a fast food dish. Things have changed a lot since fish and chips is no longer considered a popular dish. Special attention is paid to the choice of fish (cabillot, place, haddock), the quality of the oil and the cooking process. It is most often accompanied by peas and chips. The Poppies and Rock & Sole Plaice restaurants are renowned for the quality of their fish and chips.Fishcake

This dish, which resembles a stew, is mainly eaten in winter. Stew is made with lamb or beef and is accompanied by carrots, turnips and parsnips. The seasoning may vary depending on the region.Cheese
The cheshire
Cheshire, often called Chester in French, is the oldest English cheese. This cow's milk cheese, with its dense and crumbly texture, comes in three varieties: white Cheshire, red (which owes its colouring to amatto, a tropical fruit) and blue, with its natural mould, which is rarer and much appreciated.The wise derby
The great originality of this cow's milk cheese lies in the presence of sage leaves which green its paste.The stilton
