First meal
 
OK, so I am not going back to the UK, but, there are things that I miss, including the food. When you go back, or get back to the UK, what would be your first meal, assuming you had free rein to eat whatever you wanted? I have a little list in the back of my mind, of what I would want to eat, if I went back to the UK for a visit, and am curious to know what others would make a beeline for.

Mine, for the record, would have to be a steak and kidney pie and chips, smothered in HP sauce, from a proper chippy, preferably the chippy in Exening, nr. Newmarket... then, for afters, sticky toffee pudding, or jam roly poly with custard.

Sooo, what do you all have on your list?

My first meal when I go back is ALWAYS fish'n'chips. And if I couldn't have fish'n'chips, I'd have bangers and mash.

Fresh chips with curry sauce. Nothing like the frozen rubbish here which they call chips.
