not like the magnificence of the chip butty, which is clearly both a sandwich and superior!

Once I had a pulled pork sandwich with haggis in Edinburgh.
It was a cold day (for my South American standards, obviously), it was 9 am, it was 2 years ago, it was delicious, and I still remember it.
I love putting carbs on my carbs, so I think I'm game.

and I said squinting, @Joe Mac. trying to make the mirrored image of a town on a bay fit a musical connection.
I KNOW NOTHING, per usual.
Yay the food talk!

That sandwich reminds me of a french fry and gravy po boy in Nola. My fave of the po boys. @bfly - we'll get one when we escort @NathanRicaud to Nola.

And I threw up in my mouth a little bit, @gafacaode. Haggis. We need the vomit reaction. :)
 
We have a pretty good chippy here that a guy from the UK started. More affordable than most places that do fish and chips and at least as good. He does mushy peas, gravy, and curry if you want em.

That looks so good. Im going up north for christmas in a few weeks, certainly going to make the most of it on the food end!
 
Jealous. The thing I miss most about Manchester is going for an Indian on the curry mile.
I miss the prices. Theres a bar in the town im from up north that has 20+ beers on tap. Its huge. A pint costs £2. In comparison im meeting friends tonight at a bar that only sells 2/3 of a pint (with 3 options) for......and im not joking here......£5. A bottle of beer or cider is £6.50. Make me want to cry.

Yeah Dublin is the same. Manchester City centre had started to get a bit expensive by the time I left but Dublin is a whole other world. €5 is the cheapest you’ll find a pint and that’s the mass crap stuff. It just goes up from there, painful stuff!

Say, what now?:eek:

There is a village called Rusholme next to the university on the edge of the city centre. It’s a mile long and the road is lined with curry houses, Indian clothes shops, halal butchers and Asian jewellers. It’s colloquially known as the curry mile. Can get an amazing curry with all the trimmings and a pint for below £10!
