But Scotland and England are both in Britain. Haggis is as British as Fish and Chips. Which bit of this is hard to get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish cuisine is a subset of British cuisine. The original post does not make proper use of the King's English. You win this point. Pakistan and India cuisine is not British cuisine (great pizza available all over the USA, but it remains Italian cuisine). So it seems @Pine Barrens Mafia wins the point on British cuisine not making use of the spices from the conquered lands. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Augie Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 I almost went for some Royal Cuisine yesterday, but the line at Burger King was too long. I didn’t come to London to eat a Whopper or a Big Mac, but they seem to be doing a brisk business. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Ferguson forever Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 @Chaos, when we visit my in laws in London we always have a curry with them and they're thoroughly British. It's part of the cuisine imo.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been wanting to try this place for a couple of years. Maybe this Christmas.

I live in America, so the question makes no sense. But I am of Italian heritage. Family get togethers, other than Thanksgiving where we enjoy American food, almost always include Italian food. Separately the good people at Wikipedia, lend a small amount of support to the idea that British have stolen claim to Curry from India by calling it "adopted" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curry#Further_reading Edited October 7, 2023 by Chaos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cult of self-proclaimed 'Queen of Canada' threatens Sask. village with public executions RCMP is increasing police presence in Richmound An extremist cult leader and her followers have set up camp in a small Saskatchewan village, 83 kilometres northwest of Maple Creek, near the Alberta border. The group has called for public execution of elected officials and other members in and around the community. Romana Didulo is known as a far-right QAnon conspiracy theorist. She has declared herself the "Queen of Canada," among other titles including the national Indigenous leader. She has amassed thousands of followers by pushing conspiracy theories and what she calls decrees through social media, particularly Telegram — a messaging app that has grown in popularity with the far right. Didulo and some of her followers, who call themselves the 'Kingdom of Canada,' have been travelling around the country for some time. On Sept. 13, they were forced out of Kamsack, Sask., by the townspeople..... https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatchewan/cult-of-self-proclaimed-queen-of-canada-threaten-sask-village-with-public-executions-1.6988680 Nothing to do with me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although our official national dish is now formally Chicken Tikka Masala. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
