@RedHillSunsets , it's definitely not barra birth

It's Bara Brith.

I had chicken parmo when we were on holiday in Yorkshire (Pickering). It was so nice! Nearly finished me off though .

I also had one in the pub earlier this year, when I was in Durham. I love them!

I kept seeing Jellied eels on sale when I was on holiday in Great Yarmouth in June I'm from the Northwest so whilst aware of their existence have never had them ,I wasent quite brave enough to try them!

Gin!

Scouse is not exclusive to Liverpool. We eat it in north wales , it came from Norway, sailors ate it.

It says extra large breadcakes on one of the signs. Are those the bread baps in the photo or are those Scufflers? What a fab name... Scuffler!

Oh, missed your second photo, sorry! All clear now.

Do you feel better for posting that?

Mumsnet at it's best!

I have dyslexia - makes me feel like I can't comment

I have never eaten them, my Dad, Husband and daughter love them with fresh bread.

When you go to certain pubs (more old fashioned) the fish man comes round with prawns, crab, cockles, winkles and jellied eels on a Friday night.

Lucky I have only been in a pub like that a couple of times.

We used to have potato scallops when I was a kid. But I’m from the North-West. Gosh, they were delicious….

Fish and chips, pie and mash, gin, Scotch eggs, beer, inc. porter (Guinness).

I just thought of another.

We have lots of vineyards around here, I enjoy this regional food group a lot.

Lardy Cake is the food of the gods!

I see a few other Geordies have already commented, but I'm going to add:

Monkeys blood on ice cream

I only recently found out that's a northern thing after asking for monkeys blood in the south and being looked at in horror by the ice cream man
