Plus it's one of my favourite Countries anyhow too.

Can't say I've ever heard of Portugal being known for its cuisine.

British cuisine is bar far the best in the world.

I recall having a fish dish there many years ago.
Can't recall what it was called.
Wasn't really that nice.

My ex wife cooked us sweet and sour pasta one evening. So I'm going for the sardines, even though they remind me of her as well.

Name a better breakfast than the Full English (including the Scottish version with the tattie scone)? As I did say British cuisine, so will include the full Scottish too.

That said, of the two choices, Italian all day long.

No better meal than the Sunday roast with all the trimmings. We win the main meal too.

And Fish and chips speaks for itself. You kind find better than that.

Let's not even to try to debate on sweets


I'll just pull out the Tunnocks tea cake and caramel wafer. And I haven't even had to mention the cream scone.

Thanks to the Internet. The Americans are discovering the quick snack British meal, beans on toast. So many youtube videos of Americans trying beans on toast.
