Britain has many dishes intrinsic to the English culture that are now popular worldwide. However, they never taste as good as when they’re made in England itself, as those aboard a cruise to England will discover.
Fish and chips is a staple Friday night dish for many Brits and most towns will have a ‘chippy’ where visitors can buy their fish wrapped in paper and munch it down with a wooden fork.
Sunday lunch is also a hearty meal any visitor should try. Tasty roast meat, a few vegetables, Yorkshire pudding and gravy make for a delicious meal found in most cosy pubs.
Afternoon tea is a true British pastime, only complete with scones, clotted cream and jam, and cucumber sandwiches. Tearooms across the UK offer the traditionally three-tiered dining delight, all with their own twist on the teas and cakes included.
Sticks of rock on a Scarborough beach and a Cornish pasty from a nearby bakery are also top English treats to try.
