A Taste of London

Last night we met up with some folks at A Salt and Battery, a Fish and Chips place. We were at first expecting something fancy and boutiquey. We were pleasantly surprised to find it wasn't. And we thought there was going to be a line, since we were going to a place with a fun name and fancy logo and the kind of food we dream about: Deep Fried. It wasn't that busy.

But it was everything we wanted and more. We had Fried Cod and Chips and a Pint of new Castle, in a bottle. But if we wanted there was also Bangers and Mash and beans on Toast. As Rachel Ray would say, Yum-O. Coincidentally, the original A Salt and Battery was on FoodTV at some point, we just don't remember when or where.

Finally, if all that imported food wasn't enough, all the folks behind the counter had accents. If they were real, which maybe they were, maybe they weren't, they had us fooled.

Annyhow, we can't wait to go back.
