I always thought "scouse" was the dialect spoken by Liverpudlians. Seems the name may be derived from the dish!

In Scandinavia for example you have lots of wonderful fish, lamb and pork dishes.. Hard to find, outside of traditional holidays, but they do exist and are wonderful. COuple examples...
- Pinekjøtt (smoked and grilled lamb rack), in Norway, usually christmas food in their west coast country
- In Denmark the smørebød (little open finger sandwiches in almost infinite variations) is incredible. There are bakeries and specialists shops all over Copenhagen serving Smørebrød
- Norwegian sour cream porridge, a hella lot tastier than it sounds!

Rules is also good, http://www.rules.co.uk location also Covent Garden.

Oh goodness. Rules is okay but St. John is vastly superior for a somewhat updated version of classic English cuisine. It is a world class restaurant specializing in English "head to toe" cooking.

When I have better time, I'll either post links to both trad and nouvelle Scandinavian, Dutch, German and British food here or open a new thread.

As this includes my heritage and some of the countries where I grew up and studied, it would be interesting to try to convert someone to the delights of these cuisines. ;)
