Black sheep of the family or a Donna Kebab?

Maybe not too fast, but Sausage & Mash is a small chain of restaurants in
London specialising in what you would expect from its name. From on-line
reviews, the satisfaction of users seems to vary widely from one branch to
another.
The obvious URL has been occupied, but is not currently accessible.

It was a mutton burger. It was right after the BSE scare so perhaps it
wasn't a regular item. Anyway, it was in fast food type place (sit
down) and significantly cheaper than a beef hamburger.

Until I read your post I honestly though it was a British food staple.

After I saw that Seinfeld episode, I thought it was a US food staple! :-)

He didn't.

District Hewrdwicks, very superior taste.,

perhaps you should post only about what you know? You make a
damming post about British food then have to withdraw when it
becomes obvious you know nothing about it.
