Default In praise of British food

I was there summer of '06 for two weeks (three if you consider Dublin
part of the UK) and I can say that I had wonderful meals without
breaking the bank. I NEVER went to what we tourists would call an
expensive establishment (in fact, my mission was to sample as much pub
food as possible) and I didn't have a bad meal. I learned a lot about
British/UK food along the way. For instance, I learned I don't like
British breakfast sausage and I won't even dream of finding colcannon
on a menu in Dublin.
