I have to go to UKia.

What is available for the discriminating American who doesn't particularly care for horse / sheep organ meat and cockney prostitutes?

Looking for some tips from the natives...

TIA!

Two edible things you can get in UKia: (5.00 / 1) (#6)

1. Fish and Chips
2. Indian Curry

These are so good, it makes up for the shittiness of everything else on Airstrip One.  The chips are especially good dipped in malt vinegar.  Trust me on this one.

are really, really good!  And you are right about the malt vinegar...it just sets the taste right.

I have always put vinegar on my fries...which to some always seemed very strange but it is about the same thing....well an American version at least.  Never knew why I liked it so much until I realized I did because my Mother always did it and she was English/Welsh.  

I always think of 'A Fish Called Wanda' whenever someone mentions 'Fish and Chips'.  Kevin Kline's lines in that movie were so funny.

in a beach town in Delaware.  Only it was white vinegar instead of malt vinegar.  I think it's a Eastern Seaboard thing.

But malt vinegar is even better, and that's how they do it in teh UK.

It is, white vinegar anyways.

My mom did her own malt vinegar and she did stuff for pickling things as well......I don't remember her ever using white vinegar or actually seeing any white vinegar until I was a teenager at someone else's house eating dinner.

My mom did things the old fashioned way, all home made. :-)

scones are good, if you like that sort of thing with tea or coffee.

They have interesting bread there and they do have some dishes that are rather tasty.  Steak and Kidney pie is not bad.....you just have to ask for some hot sauce or something (they do have that there believe it or not!).

You can also find ethnic restaraunts there with Indian and French and German cuisine, so you won't starve or get bored really.  My advice though is do the cheese and bread thing and drink lots of wine and beer.  You won't care about the food if you drink enough.

In July I have to spend two weeks in Liberia.

The first night I was there last time I had a meal of rice only. They were going to serve chicken and rice, but the chicken coop guard fell asleep and some stole all the chickens.

Beer, and lots of it (5.00 / 1) (#1)

Both to sample the wares of some of the worlds' finest breweries, and also to be able to tolerate some of the worlds' worst cusine
