Shame I didnt have any Sharwoods Mango but what I found here was ok.
Tsk. Mango chutney with a pasty? I would have though a Coleman's mustard would be more appropriate.

Are there no Indian grocery stores near you? A World Market? Either store would probably have Sharwood's mango chutney if that's really what you want.

4and20pasty co in Sarasota is very good. The owner is from London and used to have a Restaurant in Piccadilly Circus. Trouble is, I go there and order a load and then eat too many for the next month or so!! He does Curry Pasties, and sausage rolls, mmmmmmmmm. That way I can kill 2 birds with one stone!!!

How is the Homesickness now? I'm getting over my first bout of Homesickness just now.

ive found 2 irish style bacons in the chicago area, i got winstons which was frozen, let out a lot of water and 'white stuff', and has MSG, virtually no fat so it didnt cook as nicely as id like, ok if no choice BUT then i found shannon brand bacon, cooks almost like a dry cure and no msg and more fat, much better, recommended, its very close to UK bacon.

Are there no Indian grocery stores near you? WHAT??? An Indian store in this one horse conservative town? Local paper is full of Charles Krauthammer columns and letters telling us how awful the NHS is! Nearest we get to a foreign store is the Outback restaurant, and that serves all the local stuff under funny Oz names!

You'd be better make trips to the Triangle to stock up then. I have at least three Indian grocery stores within a three mile radius of my home.

Default Re: Cornish Pasty?

best cornish pasty I had was in the 'last pub' lands end

It was two shillings and 3 pence and was fresh everything
Turnip, lamb, white pepper, onions, spuds, soft greasy but not solid heavy pastry
I am led to salivate by a decades old experience

ok now where do we locate Cheshire Cheese !

Why should I want to eat disgusting over spiced Asian crap when I have the natural flavours of fresh seafood from the Crystal Coast?

I think I am in the minority, but I don't enjoy cheese at all. But... the one thing I will eat it with is a cheese, tomato and onion sandwich with branston pickle on ! I much prefer real cheddar cheese if given a choice

I completely agree!! Real cheddar is the way to go (in most cases) with maybe the exception of ocassional wendsleydale with cranberries, and brie. I dont like the "american" cheddar so much. 1. Cheese should not ever be ORANGE or 2. smell like farts (unless its a soft or blue cheese), hence why in our house US cheddar is known as fart cheese. we get funny looks off our friends for that! And they dont get why we love branston so much either.. I have to agree withthem on one thing.. it doesnt exactly look appealing does it! Brown smoosh with lumps in!

I get my cheese from http://www.igourmet.com/

If you like a good pub cheese, try the Black Mountain, I like it as much as Cotswold.

I used to get good cheese from the supermarket but that went downhill so I pay not much more for these.

Igourmet sends a $5.00 coupon for your next buy, to be used within about a month. I order one thing, then more when I get the coupon.
