Yup! I have to say, any of the 'traditional' British foods I make go down really well with the Canadians to whom I serve them up.

Sunday roasts, Cottage pie, scones with clotted cream, fruit crumbles, fish and chips, toad-in-the-hole, scotch eggs, cornish pasties, good strong cheeses, trifle, full English, sponge puddings (rolypoly, spotted dick) with custard - in fact, anything with thick custard! I can't even criticize our dinner ladies, as they got most of it right (fresh veggies were not their strong suit, but the puds were always brilliant!) Oh, and Bakewell tart, I make a mean bakewell tart!
