That does sound good...

Though I maintain that haggis pies are a good thing

such is the highly sweet and calorific nature of the dish, you may find you could be dead shortly after consuming it.

should only be attempted by perons of sound mind and no problems whith cholesterol.

Love Scotch Pie, our mess chef is Scottish and often puts this on the menu. She also has Haggis Neeps and Tatties on Burns night

Oddly enough, the do a really good Haggis Neeps and tatties in the airport at Glasgow.

Also have had lunch in the Whiskey heritage centre and theirs is not bad.

I actually love haggis although Shipscook hates it.

I didn't forget you'd asked me this. I've just been a bit slack in answering all my comments :))

Butteries are salty, butter-y rolls made in the North of Scotland. Chiefly Aberdeen. The other name for them is Rowies. They are not all that good for you if you eat a lot of them but once in a while they're gorgeous. toasted with butter on them *yuuuuum*

I can't get them in Cambridge

I've never had fried mars bar. Wonder how it tastes.

It is also battered like fish when it is deep fried. The batter holds it together and it comes out mega hot, soft and very sweet. But with all the extra added "goodness" of being deep fried.

I am sure Elvis would have loved them.

Isn't there supposed to be a new kind of curry in Scotland?

Old-Nick ^pro
2008-05-26 @ 22:06

Dunno about that, but the curry we had on Sunday night was great. Many dishes and one of them is one I have only seen up there.

Curried Liver!

Oh yummmy!

Well if you like liver it is - and Mrs F and I certainly do!
