Not going to lie that blew our mind too, apparently a full English and a nice steak pie with gravy and mash is trash, but if you go across the channel and dig a snail out of its shell and get some cheese that will knock you down, your in some type of food heaven 😂 make that make sense 😂🤣😂
09:07 Please do us Brits who keep hearing Americans (many of whom have never, ever left the USA let alone been to the UK) describe our food as "Dull, bland, grey and tasteless" a favour. That myth dates back to World War II and immediately afterwards when your Great Grand-pappies were over here at a time during which we were very heavily rationed. When you get back please tell your compatriots just how good our food is. Especially the fact that it is not full of sugar and artificial ingredients that can impact health. 😉😃
We have told every person the only thing the Brit’s don’t got is beat on is pizza, and McDonald’s ( your just going to want them preservatives for the true McDonald taste 😅😂😅) everything else, even down to the cokes, Indian food, Chinese food. Was miles better than our food.
@@Trippingthroughadventures I’m sorry, but again America doesn’t do pizza correctly. The Italians never invented deep-dish, oily, fried pizzas. They created thin-base pizzas with a tomato base and fresh toppings. When I went to America I was shocked at the pizza and knew my Nonna would be turning in her grave.
@@YTLJE so we are comparing our personal taste, I think I make that comparison with bangers in an upcoming vlog. I like bangers a lot, If I had to choose between American style or English style I’d probably still take American. However, if I had to put money on someone who’s never had sausage before picking between the two…they would choose bangers all day.
@@Trippingthroughadventures Good to hear! 👍 I have seen so many videos here on TH-cam of Americans who moved here and within weeks or months lost weight even though they were eating more.
@@Trippingthroughadventures As a Brit who has eaten pizza in Italy and New York, I personally find the New York style to be the best in the world! There's a lot of bad and mediocre pizza in the UK.
Great vid.....and I'm with Tiff on the crumble appraisal....I've been making crumble for years and that ain't no crumble..you CAN'T just sprinkle the topping on last minute...the seasonal fruit goes in a dish, crumble mix on top, sprinkle of demerara and hoof it in the oven for 40 minutes...it comes out crunchy on top, fruit juices bubbling around the edges and you pour fresh custard over it last minute...not a rose petal in sight! Just found your channel today... and subscribed🙂
Humble crumble is the child of us as children when we would have a rhubarb or apple crumble and the thing we all wanted was the crumble topping and custard more than the rhubarb or apple filling. The fact they do unlimited custard is great as you get the crumble and just mix it up and then as you work your way through it just go back for more custard to mix with the crumble we all loved as kids with our school dinners..
You know after being there in person staring at it in editing for hours, until you said something…. I didn’t realize that 😂 but to be fair, black currants was banned in America since 1911 to 1966 and some up to 2017 because it had a bacteria that could kill off our pine trees, so that berry is pretty much non existent to us, an with all the excited, my fat self got it mixed up.
@@Trippingthroughadventures yes you get grape for everything purple, we get blackcurrant 🙂 Also I find it funny that your channel is called “Tripping through adventures” and at 12:05 there’s an actual guy tripping in the background, I’ve watched him 12 times so far.
Yes only difference your black current stuff taste like black current. Our grape stuff taste nothing like a real grapes 😂 Also, yea that’s Steve he’s our new mascot lol jk We call ourselves that for the mistake like that all the time, and instead of acting like a know it all we just embrace our mistakes and slip ups. Hints “tripping “ through adventures.
We do we don’t film it, if the business seems open to talk, we thank them and spend a few minutes talking with them off camera, we find it comes of more genuine, and shows that we do care about them as to just getting views. We hear so many horror stories of vloggers being pushy and hard. That’s why are shots are a bit shaky. Cuz we don’t ask people to move or stop, we get our shots as we are moving as to not bother or intrude on anyone around us. But that being said, if this series does good I will return to London to take an etiquette class lol
@@Trippingthroughadventures Saying Please and Thank-you is just a common courtesy, whether you are vlogging or not, that said I am now going to subscribe and look forward to seeing more from you!
Salt isn't necessary on fish and chips. Potato has a delicate flavour that is overwhelmed by salt. Do your palate a favour and stop using salt at all for a month, then see if you want to go back to using it.
That is about 10 x more vinegar than a Brit puts on ..... LOL....... it's an optional thing when you buy fish n chips..they always ask behind the counter in a proper "chippie" and you would reply ..yes/no/a little/just salt, but you've almost pickled it there lol
Yes, and the salt and vinegar only go on the chips, not the fish. Finally, you normally put some tartare sauce on the fish, and some tomato ketchup on the chips. But never mind. Glad you enjoyed everything, though I'd want to sit down somewhere and have some tea with all that food. But you seemed to enjoy it standing up anyhow.
@@wayinfront1 Salt and vinegar goes on everything, especially battered stuff as the oil they use these days tastes horrible. Chip shops don't usually have tartare sauce and ketchup though they might have little sachets of ketchup for kids food like chicken nuggets
Hi Guys. The doughnut you thought was cherry is actually blackcurrant. I don't think you have blackcurrant in the US. They are a tart currant, in the same family as redcurrant. Where you have grape flavour, we have blackcurrant - & they're full of Vit C!!
So side note first, you guys have black currant flavored things, we have imitation grape flavored things that taste nothing like a grape lol. Also yes this was a re accruing thing, we was aware of black currants…sort of… it’s non existent in the states… there’s a Nordic yogurt that came out in 2017 that has a black currant flavor and out of 34 years of life. That the only time I’ve seen that flavor. So the idea it’s so ubiquitous in the UK is surreal I did not know my mind would register black cherry every time I seen one but it would. Way better than grape lol.
@@TrippingthroughadventuresMost US states have now lifted the 1911 ban on blackcurrant production, but since Americans haven't grown up knowing the flavour, it hasn't caught on yet. The ban was originally for a good reason (it spread white pine rust threatening the timber industry), but times have changed and there's no good reason for it now. Grape flavour must be entirely artificial as they really don't taste of much, certainly not like your "grape" sodas and candies.
Hi for an American coming over to our beautiful land you my friend explained the flavours and textures of the sticky toffee pudding better than a lot of brits, good job.
lol a lot of people don’t realize on here, to Americans, toffee sauce doesn’t explain much, we don’t know puddings, in which we should, England has beautiful food lol. They think I’m degrading it calling it a Carmel sauce lol. 99% of Americans would describe that as a salted Caramel sauce. And I’m mind blown as an American editing these videos how I just read black cherry when it says black current. Cuz black currant is non existent in America. Even among what we would consider exotic fruits. It just doesn’t exist in the states.
@@Trippingthroughadventures yes there 2 different fruits and no caramel was good as i said you did a good job and I'm going to subscribe and well done for getting so many subscribers, 🍻
@@Trippingthroughadventures sticky 'toffee' is such a misleading name! As a child I HATED toffees (the candy); from the flavour to the way it gets stuck to your teeth, I could not stand toffee - and I still can't to this day. As a result, I refused to try sticky toffee pudding for so many years of my life - I mean, the name embodies everything I hate about toffee! It was only when I reached my teenage years and started taking a more serious interest in cooking and learned how it was made that I realised that it was more like a dark caramel sauce. It is now one of my favourite desserts, particularly when served hot with a really good quality vanilla ice cream to cut through the sweetness! Heavenly!
Did you get a chance to check out Spitalfields market in East London and Portobello West London? (filming location of Notting hill and bedknobs and broomsticks)@@Trippingthroughadventures
We are little obsessed with vinegar lol, tiff said “ I’m embarrassed now cuz they are saying to much vinegar, I thought it could of used a little more” 🤣😂🤣😂
@@Trippingthroughadventures haha I was watching that thinking that was like 3x Fish and Chip meals worth of vinegar going on there. The fish almost started swimming again!
We do to, just not with a camera in their face. We shut the camera off talk to them brag about their stuff say please and thank you for the service and effort. Some of the ways we are respectful to people, it’s more respectful and more comfortable to them if you guys don’t see.
Right! I thought that within seconds of this video. It just sounds so wrong. We say please at the end of pretty much every request, not just at the end of the interaction all together. So “sticky toffee and a crème brûlée please” and “ what’s the chances you could add that on please, thank you”
@@Esther19870 so in America I guess it’s not that formal I guess, there’s times we start with “ May I “ which I guess comes off as a submissive way of asking, or we say “can I have a” and when you receive it you add the “ thank you very much “.basically as long as you say something lol but In the future I will try to be more British and less American in my manners. It seemed people had that more figured out in England anyway lol
@@Trippingthroughadventures I work in a touristy thing around the corner from the market so I come across people from all over, I’ve got used to all the different ways people interact so I’m not that bothered but if you want to do it the British way then please after every request, personally I like it when Americans call me “mam”. Glad you enjoyed all our yummy foods we have to offer!
@@Esther19870 I’m from the south in America and I noticed a lot of the lady’s would get a laugh when I would call them ma’am. Know the level of respect and decorum, most of the British people have is to be admired and respected. You’ll find state side respect is usually a one way street in interaction. Specially Jersey and nyc where even a thank you is met with a “ yea alright “.
Thanks guys this kind of caught us off guard lol. We literally didn’t fun on a couple of days because we was like “ eh we will mad if we do this whole thing for nothing” now we are talking about how we are going to move forward with this if it keeps moving at this rate, when we will return to film more 🤣😂🤣😂The doughnut was great lol you guys got to check it out.
Our doughnuts are very different to US ones, we prefer floury doughnuts with fresh or dessert flavours as fillings over glazed and artificial flavours. I also think that rhubarb is an acquired flavour that us Brits tend to grow up with, we quite like tangy and sharp fruit flavours in our desserts complemented with soft flavours like custard and creams. You guys should give Spitalfields market and Mercato metropolitano a go. P.s fun fact Bridget Jones’ fictional apartment is next to Borough market.
Our problem was the opposite, strawberry rhubarb pie is big in the states , even here in Florida key lime pie is huge, but the custard and crumble was very out of proportion.
@@TrippingthroughadventuresI must admit as a Brit, that crumble didn’t look appealing, it should be cooked as a whole dish in an oven then portioned up so the lower part of the crumb mixes with the liquid from the fruit and the upper part becomes crispy
@@Trippingthroughadventures To be honest I don't really think crumble works that well as an "eating-out food". If you say crumble to me I think of Sunday afternoon, a big dish bubbling away in the oven. Or maybe invited to dinner round someone's house and either the host has made one for afters or one of the guests made it at home and brought it round to cook. It's home cooking, a big dish cooked together for sharing out straight from the oven with custard or ice cream. Not individual portions cooked to order or chef-ily constructed out of separate fruit and crumble parts. I've had crumbles out of course, at pubs or restaurants, but I don't think even the best restaurant crumble has ever been quite as satisfying as the lowliest home cooked one!
@@Trippingthroughadventures You are assuming that a pub crawl is an evening event. You need to spend longer in the UK to learn that a lunchtime/afternoon pub crawl is a perfect way to spend a half-day off work in London (before heading home on the tube or train about 8pm).
Borough Market is one of the best food markets I've ever been to so I agree. But these day's its very very pricey for what you get and I feel some of the stalls are overcharging and under delivering (or that's just because rent has shot up) . Food markets in Manchester, Leeds and Liverpool are also producing incredible food and the price is more reasonable.
sorry to be pedantic, but as i noticed a couple of comments below and your response, i had to comment. as pleasant as you seem, you responded when asked by saying a crème Brule and a sticky toffee. there was no please or thank you, and they were not edited out. just a that's fine when asked if 1 box was ok. sorry if seems a tad trivial, but i immediately noticed whilst watching, as was noticeably at odds with the very pleasant first few minutes. i know a cliché about us brits, and may be deemed excessive by some, but manners are really important over here. you will struggle unless you use please and thank you pretty much as a reflex. also, people will be nicer to you too. win win.
I already got that under control when we hit 5,000 subs I will be returning to England and taking etiquette classes. I know people mean no harm, and I think the idea of saying please after ever single request is simply not an American attribute lol. Something that I would like to work on because even in the states it wouldn’t hurt me lol.
I’m southern so “thank you” is heavily emphasized but please is more insinuated, so how you ask for something is more important than please, terms like “May I “ or “can” is a almost a way of Lessing yourself in the situation. Giving the person who serves you the power on an odd way. It almost sets up this situation that “ I know it’s your job, but you don’t have to for me “ type thing, I always say I’m southern so I apologize for existing lol. This means if someone runs into me 100% their fault, first words out of my mouth “ ohh I’m sorry” (if I didn’t exist this wouldn’t have happened) lol. So basically we replaced please with an attitude of unsureness if we are worthy of the McDonald’s server making our fries 😂🤣😂
We shall search for authenticity, we know not to judge a food by its pretty trendy version, we want the old ugly version the old lady’s been making for 80 years lol
The market has been there 1k years, so wev had time to get things right. Cod or Haddock are best fish and chips. The not liking the food is a through back to WW2 when finally the Americans arrived we had had 2 years of rationing. So our food was extreamly limited like 2oz of butter a week, so get with it US our food is much healther than yours far less chemicals and amazing veriaty. I live in a tiny village with 2 pubs a Amazing Chinese resturant and a wonderful Chippy ( i lived in Hong Kong so i know great Chinese). We also have a Chicken shop and a Pizza place that deliver. All to a tiny village so wind your necks in America.
yeah a lil heavy on the vinegar there ...a 3rd of that would be plenty...really liked the vid though ... im often in borough market ..you might try pie & mash very traditional food theres one not to far from tower bridge called M. Manze ...try the jellied eels aswell ....it opened in 1902 & still has original decor
I've given you a like and sub guys, not sure how old your channel is, but I enjoyed this and look forward to watching others. Glad you liked the food. As others have said, when you were putting the vinegar on, I was saying whoa after a few shakes lol, and I like a fair amount of vinegar 😂
Just found your channel, and I'm loving your content. I respect that you're both honest about your likes and dislikes for certain foods, but glad that you're enjoying our food so far. I really think you should try a decent Cornish pasty as they are amazing. Just make sure you get one from a proper Cornish Pasty place and not a cheap one from the supermarkets.
I don't know what time they were there but Humble Crumble's queue normally goes right round the back of the shop. I queued for half an hour for my crumble. Borough Market is normally crazy crouded.
@@Trippingthroughadventures I need to remember that. Every time I go its jammed packed. BTW, if you are still here then near the eating area there is a Japanese bento stall. Well worth a try. I had the chicken katsu.
I live about 20 mins from there and you are right. if you live that close you go as often as possible. Good choice to go early as it gets way too crowded with tourists later on. Some of the best food in London IMO, if a little pricey. Maybe try more savoury stuff next time, even though doughnuts are fantastic!
My grandfather use to say I’d rather pay $10 for a good meal than $3 for a bad one lol as you can tell by the prices this was a long time ago…. We later regretted our choice of so many sweets lol 😂
Great vid❤ Borough Market is the 'dogs bollox' for food on the hoof. Plus the tiny, tiny pub there that only serves beer is always a joy to squeeze into for a cold one❤
Oh it’s not just expensive you get an extra surprise spend with tax and tip $50 dollar meal nope ad tax and tip 75-80 bucks. Welcome to the land of the free 😝 lol. USA got a lot of perks but price is not one of them at least in England you knew what you was going to spend lol.
I hear ya the British do the same thing in Florida when they come here Always talking about Dis-nay Mick- Kay Kiss in may Our land dough Have no idea what their on about lol
@@Trippingthroughadventures If Brits sound like that I would presume that either they had a speech impediment or had escaped from an episode of Downton Abbey?
Hi, new sub! Looking forward to watching what you get up to in London. I do hope you also managed to get up to the Cotswolds or outside of our capital city in some way. England is much more than London. You’ll be back home by now so hope you had a great time!
Good lord those doughnuts looked ridiculous, another cool video guys. Did you get a chance to eat at any Indian restaurants? I’m hoping that’s coming up in a future video lol.
Hake is still good, Cod and Haddock are very popular too and you also see Plaice quite often, any white fish can be used really, Coley is very good too but my all time favourite for fish and chips is Turbot, the odd fish and chip shop will sell it but it's reasonably rare, you see it a lot more in seafood restaurants and it tends to be quite expensive too, but if you ever come across Turbot on your travels definitely try it, it's a really delicious fish.
Thanks for the video and keep up the good work. YT can be an unforgiving place in the comments, with all sorts of pedantic and rude stuff, but some honesty and enthusiasm will get you a long way and there is always a silent majority.
See, I feel like we didn’t scratch the surface of the market. All these comments makes me want to go back and eat more. I’m Floridian I love raw oysters lol.
Lolol. 100% not true. The food at Borough Market is light years ahead of Camden, and Camden is way more touristy - I used to live in Camden for five years and I'm London born and bred
Low key could of doubled it, but we got a weird thing with vinegar, we don’t drink beer but we can destroy some ciders cuz it taste like apple cider vinegar we put malt or balsamic vinegar on our pizza 😂🤣😂 thank you for the kind words.
@@Trippingthroughadventures ohhhh damnnnn haha. I guess it was just my personal opinion! What ever floats your boat guys. Keep up the cool videos! I’ve been binge watching 😂🫡 anyhow, love from Cheshire uk 🇬🇧 ❤️
So you went to Borough Market and started with doughnuts. There is fantastic produce at the market how about trying the cheeses, the cold meats the vegetables but no Doughnuts admittedly better than any thing in the US how about being a bit more adventurous. You missed out on a lot. Go to the South bank at weekends fantastic choice.
I’m really feeling judged right now 😂 I could have edited to make it like we are the fish and chips first, but I felt like this was a judgement free zone😂🤣… so how things look in vlogs don’t play out like they do in real life, the places we chose was tactical, because they are “trendy” to an American viewer. The plan was to eat them and then get other stuff, but we wasn’t planning on them being that good … and …eating all it …. And then getting sad cuz we ate to much … and then leaving to walk off the fat sadness.
Im amazed you thought our donuts were so good . I was in Quakertown PA a few years ago and just fell in love with the cinnamon donuts and coffee , Id be the size of a house if I lived there. Also , whilst we say 'fish and chips with salt and vinegar' , the vinegar goes on first so that the salt sticks to the chips, otherwise the vinegar can wash the salt off. Great vid guys , love it x
So I think it’s just the lack of chemical in it, a lot of our doughnuts crispycreme Dunkin’ taste so processed but I’m sure you had good doughnuts around those Amish areas.
@@Trippingthroughadventures Thats a good point , I never thought of that but arent donuts just fried dough with added fruit and or flavoured custards topped with sugar ? Are they really filled with preservatives , E-numbers etc ?
I'm English, 82 years old and I think I went to Borough Market once, ages ago but can't really remember now. I don't do Instagram so I have never picked up on all these promotions of the various foods. This is the first video of yours that I have watched and I really enjoyed your enjoyment of the place and the food. I'm going to have to try it but I live quite a way from London now so it'll take some planning. I hope you enjoy the rest of your time here.
Thank you sir, we heard it’s quiet a mad house most days, but glad to have you watching our channel there’s a few questions in our future videos maybe a seasoned person as yourself would have no problem answering.
@@Trippingthroughadventures I'm 71 in 5 weeks and this Tony, like the Tony above, am not a frequent visitor to the Market, even though it is a short hop/step/jump away as it's always crazee bizzyyy. I liked your video as a first timer for me as well, although if I did have a criticism, bits of the vid were very dark in contrast colours: enjoyed it though👍👍btw, your lady is stunningly beautiful, a keeper if I may be so bold 😊😊
Hi of course we do the best doughnut , we invented the bloody thing , like apple apple pie. fun fact for you, try real apple pie with the correct apple , bramley apple .
I keep hearing folks from the USA pronouncing Caramel as Car-mel. (2 syllables) In the UK it is 3 syllables Ca - Ra- Mel pronounced Ca' like in can, Ra' like in rough, and Mel like the name. I like your enthusiasm. Keep Reacting! I understand that black currents are legal now.
Try a crumble made by a boomer grandma. That’ll beat whatever you ate hands down: crunchy and chewy topping and bubbling fruit. It’s traditional amongst Gen X kids to ask for the ‘skin’ of the custard, too. We used to jostle one another to get it at school.
😂🎉 loving the channel,, check this out !! The small street you were standing in to try humble crumble,, in the film , An American Werewolf in London (1981),, that was the dead end where he found his demise 😮🐺☄️ they blocked it off and covered up the glass archway building to make it looklike a closed alley of no retreat 😀🎬
Oh wow that’s kool, we was just watching the new wonka movie and theirs a scene with a giraffe in a truck and we was looking at the bridge and was like “ holy crap that’s Oxford “ and it shows the church and we was like “ wait… that’s Saint Paul’s !!” lol.

Cuz the person behind the counter said it was and cod is very popular in the USA. It’s like the only fish used for fish and chips in the USA that and haddock. I’ve had cod a lot lol.
If you want to be shown around Nottinghamshire - Robin Hood county - then happy to help. There's a street in Radford that serves the best kebabs in the world, no contest. Sadly our best fish restaurant went out of business due to the pandemic lockdowns, but there's still plenty of other great food.
Did you have the doughnuts before the fish and chips??? I would have had the cakes after, not first, spoils your taste buds for the fish and chips. We moved away from London, dont miss it at all, till I see these videos then I do. The food looks amazing.
Hi guys, Glasgow is thee place you need to visit. Tikka masala was invented here RIP M r Ali, no sub standard Indian restaurant will last 5 mins here. Seems the Chinese Curry sauce was also invented here. It's a place of great food from all over the planet, stunning architecture, beautiful parks/gardens and AMAZING museums (free), one of the oldest underground transport systems in the world. definitely open mikes, we have the best bands Simple Minds, Travis, Texas so many many more. Comedians Billy Connolly, Kevin Bridges, etc etc. As for Nessie, don't worry we know she's there and ok. The deal is she plays hide & seek with the visitors😉. I'll get back to you regarding the castles, but trust me You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet till you come to God's own Country.
That's very little like a proper crumble. The crumble should be baked on top if the fruit, which gives texture gradation from sludge to cake to crumble to crunch, with some caramelised fruit.
I’m loving your England vlogs and your reactions to the food but it’s way too dark!! Is there any way to lighten what you’re recording so we can see details? Can’t wait for the next instalment.
Thank you that was an issue with the camera (user error issue lol ) that lasted from this vlog and part of the next one that should clear up after that.
Allegedly the Food reputation is a result of the American soldiers opinion during WWII when Brits were quite heavily rationed ! Especially compared to what the recently arrived GIs were used to !
If you like Fruit Pies ! Try GOOD Crumble, Apple Crumble, Rhubarb Crumble ! My favourite is Gooseberry Crumble but Hens teeth are more common, usually if I want it I have to Make it Myself !
We do, on the dough nut I was reaching and drop the camera as I was saying “thank you soo much” so I had to clip it. We also stayed there for a few minutes talking to the staff and raving about our experience and how great a job they’re doing. But as vloggers in a world of vloggers we see how insincere that comes off with a camera in their face. That’s also why are shots arnt perfect we don’t want to put any one out just so we can have a nice shot for our vlog. Either we get it or we don’t. lol my favorite words is “oh , no don’t stop do what you want I’m just an idiot with a camera “ 😂🤣😂
Catching up on your old vids, you're a nice couple. Doesn't feel like you're trying to make friends and are honest when aren't 100 on something. Lots of vloggers eat absolute trash and then complain, like bro go look around. You need to try a norhern curry sometime they seem to have that nailed imo.
@@Trippingthroughadventures the globe is in borough Market, in the Bridget Jones films she lives in the flat above the pub. It's a very Instagramable place so might be great for your SEO and visibility on TH-cam
As a foodie and Brit and ex chef I was like whaaaaaat nooooo noooooooo noooooooooooooo!!!!! Fish and chips... You shouldn't ever do what you did... The malt vinegar always goes on first... Know why? The salt sticks to the vinegar... When you salt then vinegar... It drops all the salt to the bottom you're effectively washing the salt off 😭 Any way... Glad you enjoyed it here! And if you come back? Vinegar then salt please thankyou ❤

@@Trippingthroughadventures If you have the time in London try some pie and mash, have it with the liquer sauce and add chili vinegar and white pepper. Pie and mash is working class food, cheap and VERY filling, you don't really see pie and mash shops anywhere else other than London. You also need to go to Brick Lane and try the Indian food, London (and the UK) is the home to the second largest community of Indian peoples out side of India itself. And don't forget to try a full English breakfast at least once 😄
So I’m currently in America trying to find where I can find bangers, so the eggs and toast is easy we get Heinz beans and brown sauce in our international section and I lucked into some bacon lol. And I love the pies but that will have to be winter time food it’s already 29 degrees in Florida, so something that heavy will ruin a man lol.
@@Trippingthroughadventures From what I've seen the closest thing to bangers in the US is what you guys call "breakfast sausages", if you can find blood sausage (black pudding) you should give it a try too, it's one of those things that sounds gross,but once you fry it, it's god tier!
So if this series goes well as it’s going we will be back soon but we are going to focus on less touristy more standard English places we are currently setting up a membership program to help prepare for it.

I love how we have we have this reputation of poor food, based purely on 13 years of rationing during and after the war, over 70 years later
Not going to lie that blew our mind too, apparently a full English and a nice steak pie with gravy and mash is trash, but if you go across the channel and dig a snail out of its shell and get some cheese that will knock you down, your in some type of food heaven 😂 make that make sense 😂🤣😂
09:07 Please do us Brits who keep hearing Americans (many of whom have never, ever left the USA let alone been to the UK) describe our food as "Dull, bland, grey and tasteless" a favour.

@@Trippingthroughadventures I’m sorry, but again America doesn’t do pizza correctly. The Italians never invented deep-dish, oily, fried pizzas. They created thin-base pizzas with a tomato base and fresh toppings. When I went to America I was shocked at the pizza and knew my Nonna would be turning in her grave.
@@YTLJE so we are comparing our personal taste, I think I make that comparison with bangers in an upcoming vlog. I like bangers a lot, If I had to choose between American style or English style I’d probably still take American.

Good to hear! 👍
I have seen so many videos here on TH-cam of Americans who moved here and within weeks or months lost weight even though they were eating more.
@@Trippingthroughadventures As a Brit who has eaten pizza in Italy and New York, I personally find the New York style to be the best in the world! There's a lot of bad and mediocre pizza in the UK.
Great vid.....and I'm with Tiff on the crumble appraisal....I've been making crumble for years and that ain't no crumble..you CAN'T just sprinkle the topping on last minute...the seasonal fruit goes in a dish, crumble mix on top, sprinkle of demerara and hoof it in the oven for 40 minutes...it comes out crunchy on top, fruit juices bubbling around the edges and you pour fresh custard over it last minute...not a rose petal in sight! Just found your channel today... and subscribed🙂
Thank you we are in talks to do a live stream where you guys walk us through some of these recipes lol. 😂
Humble crumble is the child of us as children when we would have a rhubarb or apple crumble and the thing we all wanted was the crumble topping and custard more than the rhubarb or apple filling. The fact they do unlimited custard is great as you get the crumble and just mix it up and then as you work your way through it just go back for more custard to mix with the crumble we all loved as kids with our school dinners..
All usa citizens are welcome in the uk. Peace from Wolverhampton England
Thank you, we love your country it’s rich in beauty and culture.
That was not black Cherry doughnut.. it was Black current, which is a smaller tarter berry.
Blackcurrant cheesecake donut, not black cherry - that’s why it didn’t taste of cherries, because it wasn’t cherries 😅
You know after being there in person staring at it in editing for hours, until you said something…. I didn’t realize that 😂 but to be fair, black currants was banned in America since 1911 to 1966 and some up to 2017 because it had a bacteria that could kill off our pine trees, so that berry is pretty much non existent to us, an with all the excited, my fat self got it mixed up.
@@Trippingthroughadventures yes you get grape for everything purple, we get blackcurrant 🙂
Also I find it funny that your channel is called “Tripping through adventures” and at 12:05 there’s an actual guy tripping in the background, I’ve watched him 12 times so far.
Yes only difference your black current stuff taste like black current. Our grape stuff taste nothing like a real grapes 😂
Also, yea that’s Steve he’s our new mascot lol jk
We call ourselves that for the mistake like that all the time, and instead of acting like a know it all we just embrace our mistakes and slip ups. Hints “tripping “ through adventures.
I was looking for this comment.
What’s hilarious is they ban blackcurrants cos they are dangerous but machine guns are fine 😂😂😂
Awesome video guys 👍 just remember to say please and thank you, it's gets you a long way in the UK.
We do we don’t film it, if the business seems open to talk, we thank them and spend a few minutes talking with them off camera, we find it comes of more genuine, and shows that we do care about them as to just getting views. We hear so many horror stories of vloggers being pushy and hard. That’s why are shots are a bit shaky. Cuz we don’t ask people to move or stop, we get our shots as we are moving as to not bother or intrude on anyone around us. But that being said, if this series does good I will return to London to take an etiquette class lol

A tip when eating fish & chips, salt after you splash on the vinegar. Salt first gets washed off by vinegar.
Why would you put salt on battered fish?
@@dannywachowski5880 why wouldn't you?
@@rodjones117 It's already nicely seasoned and I only salt the chips
Salt isn't necessary on fish and chips. Potato has a delicate flavour that is overwhelmed by salt. Do your palate a favour and stop using salt at all for a month, then see if you want to go back to using it.
@@Ozone280 Are you on drugs 🤷🏼♂️
That is about 10 x more vinegar than a Brit puts on ..... LOL....... it's an optional thing when you buy fish n chips..they always ask behind the counter in a proper "chippie" and you would reply ..yes/no/a little/just salt, but you've almost pickled it there lol
😂🤣😂 I laughed to hard at this…. It tasted great though
Yes, and the salt and vinegar only go on the chips, not the fish. Finally, you normally put some tartare sauce on the fish, and some tomato ketchup on the chips. But never mind. Glad you enjoyed everything, though I'd want to sit down somewhere and have some tea with all that food. But you seemed to enjoy it standing up anyhow.
@@wayinfront1 Salt and vinegar goes on everything, especially battered stuff as the oil they use these days tastes horrible. Chip shops don't usually have tartare sauce and ketchup though they might have little sachets of ketchup for kids food like chicken nuggets
thats not more vinegar that we put on in northern ireland, fish should be drown in vinegar.
@@wayinfront1 nah mate youre talking shite haha vinegar goes on everything. Even the peas.
Hi Guys. The doughnut you thought was cherry is actually blackcurrant. I don't think you have blackcurrant in the US. They are a tart currant, in the same family as redcurrant. Where you have grape flavour, we have blackcurrant - & they're full of Vit C!!
So side note first, you guys have black currant flavored things, we have imitation grape flavored things that taste nothing like a grape lol.
Also yes this was a re accruing thing, we was aware of black currants…sort of… it’s non existent in the states… there’s a Nordic yogurt that came out in 2017 that has a black currant flavor and out of 34 years of life. That the only time I’ve seen that flavor. So the idea it’s so ubiquitous in the UK is surreal I did not know my mind would register black cherry every time I seen one but it would. Way better than grape lol.
@@TrippingthroughadventuresMost US states have now lifted the 1911 ban on blackcurrant production, but since Americans haven't grown up knowing the flavour, it hasn't caught on yet. The ban was originally for a good reason (it spread white pine rust threatening the timber industry), but times have changed and there's no good reason for it now. Grape flavour must be entirely artificial as they really don't taste of much, certainly not like your "grape" sodas and candies.
@@Trippingthroughadventures Try some Ribena while you're in the UK. Definitive blackcurrant: definitively British!
Yeah big difference
Hi for an American coming over to our beautiful land you my friend explained the flavours and textures of the sticky toffee pudding better than a lot of brits, good job.
lol a lot of people don’t realize on here, to Americans, toffee sauce doesn’t explain much, we don’t know puddings, in which we should, England has beautiful food lol. They think I’m degrading it calling it a Carmel sauce lol. 99% of Americans would describe that as a salted Caramel sauce. And I’m mind blown as an American editing these videos how I just read black cherry when it says black current. Cuz black currant is non existent in America. Even among what we would consider exotic fruits. It just doesn’t exist in the states.
@@Trippingthroughadventures yes there 2 different fruits and no caramel was good as i said you did a good job and I'm going to subscribe and well done for getting so many subscribers, 🍻
@@Trippingthroughadventures sticky 'toffee' is such a misleading name! As a child I HATED toffees (the candy); from the flavour to the way it gets stuck to your teeth, I could not stand toffee - and I still can't to this day. As a result, I refused to try sticky toffee pudding for so many years of my life - I mean, the name embodies everything I hate about toffee! It was only when I reached my teenage years and started taking a more serious interest in cooking and learned how it was made that I realised that it was more like a dark caramel sauce. It is now one of my favourite desserts, particularly when served hot with a really good quality vanilla ice cream to cut through the sweetness! Heavenly!
About half an hour north of that is Camden market. Go around lunch time. You will love it

.... and get some Sticky Toffee Pudding from the Cartmel shop. Best ever.
The main thing is we don’t put as many preservatives in our food like USA. 👍
I love your honesty .
I love everything about these vlogs.
Thanks so much! We had a blast making these videos! 😊🥰 -Tiff
That food looks amazing
It was
We say please and thankyou in the UK.
We do to, just not with a camera in their face. We shut the camera off talk to them brag about their stuff say please and thank you for the service and effort. Some of the ways we are respectful to people, it’s more respectful and more comfortable to them if you guys don’t see.
Right! I thought that within seconds of this video. It just sounds so wrong.
We say please at the end of pretty much every request, not just at the end of the interaction all together.
So “sticky toffee and a crème brûlée please” and “ what’s the chances you could add that on please, thank you”
@@Esther19870 so in America I guess it’s not that formal I guess, there’s times we start with “ May I “ which I guess comes off as a submissive way of asking, or we say “can I have a” and when you receive it you add the “ thank you very much “.basically as long as you say something lol but In the future I will try to be more British and less American in my manners. It seemed people had that more figured out in England anyway lol
@@Trippingthroughadventures I work in a touristy thing around the corner from the market so I come across people from all over, I’ve got used to all the different ways people interact so I’m not that bothered but if you want to do it the British way then please after every request, personally I like it when Americans call me “mam”.
Glad you enjoyed all our yummy foods we have to offer!
@@Esther19870 I’m from the south in America and I noticed a lot of the lady’s would get a laugh when I would call them ma’am. Know the level of respect and decorum, most of the British people have is to be admired and respected. You’ll find state side respect is usually a one way street in interaction. Specially Jersey and nyc where even a thank you is met with a “ yea alright “.
Hi you two, I hope your visit to England is as welcoming as my trip to New York was a few years ago, enjoy

@@Trippingthroughadventures 🍩🇬🇧
Fantastic vidya xx
Thank you 😊
Our doughnuts are very different to US ones, we prefer floury doughnuts with fresh or dessert flavours as fillings over glazed and artificial flavours.
I also think that rhubarb is an acquired flavour that us Brits tend to grow up with, we quite like tangy and sharp fruit flavours in our desserts complemented with soft flavours like custard and creams.
You guys should give Spitalfields market and Mercato metropolitano a go.
P.s fun fact Bridget Jones’ fictional apartment is next to Borough market.
Our problem was the opposite, strawberry rhubarb pie is big in the states , even here in Florida key lime pie is huge, but the custard and crumble was very out of proportion.
@@TrippingthroughadventuresI must admit as a Brit, that crumble didn’t look appealing, it should be cooked as a whole dish in an oven then portioned up so the lower part of the crumb mixes with the liquid from the fruit and the upper part becomes crispy
@@johnleonard9090 this was probably 20% fruit 70% crumble 20 percent custard
@@Trippingthroughadventures To be honest I don't really think crumble works that well as an "eating-out food". If you say crumble to me I think of Sunday afternoon, a big dish bubbling away in the oven. Or maybe invited to dinner round someone's house and either the host has made one for afters or one of the guests made it at home and brought it round to cook. It's home cooking, a big dish cooked together for sharing out straight from the oven with custard or ice cream. Not individual portions cooked to order or chef-ily constructed out of separate fruit and crumble parts.
I've had crumbles out of course, at pubs or restaurants, but I don't think even the best restaurant crumble has ever been quite as satisfying as the lowliest home cooked one!
lol dont speak for all of us please
Usually we have a ten minute walk around the market and then start our pub crawl in the Market Porter pub!
That sounds like a killer night lol
@@Trippingthroughadventures You are assuming that a pub crawl is an evening event. You need to spend longer in the UK to learn that a lunchtime/afternoon pub crawl is a perfect way to spend a half-day off work in London (before heading home on the tube or train about 8pm).
Borough Market is one of the best food markets I've ever been to so I agree. But these day's its very very pricey for what you get and I feel some of the stalls are overcharging and under delivering (or that's just because rent has shot up) . Food markets in Manchester, Leeds and Liverpool are also producing incredible food and the price is more reasonable.
sorry to be pedantic, but as i noticed a couple of comments below and your response, i had to comment. as pleasant as you seem, you responded when asked by saying a crème Brule and a sticky toffee. there was no please or thank you, and they were not edited out. just a that's fine when asked if 1 box was ok. sorry if seems a tad trivial, but i immediately noticed whilst watching, as was noticeably at odds with the very pleasant first few minutes. i know a cliché about us brits, and may be deemed excessive by some, but manners are really important over here. you will struggle unless you use please and thank you pretty much as a reflex. also, people will be nicer to you too. win win.
I already got that under control when we hit 5,000 subs I will be returning to England and taking etiquette classes. I know people mean no harm, and I think the idea of saying please after ever single request is simply not an American attribute lol. Something that I would like to work on because even in the states it wouldn’t hurt me lol.
@@Trippingthroughadventures i lived in california for a few years. not too bad actually. new york may take a while.
I’m southern so “thank you” is heavily emphasized but please is more insinuated, so how you ask for something is more important than please, terms like “May I “ or “can” is a almost a way of Lessing yourself in the situation. Giving the person who serves you the power on an odd way. It almost sets up this situation that “ I know it’s your job, but you don’t have to for me “ type thing, I always say I’m southern so I apologize for existing lol. This means if someone runs into me 100% their fault, first words out of my mouth “ ohh I’m sorry” (if I didn’t exist this wouldn’t have happened) lol. So basically we replaced please with an attitude of unsureness if we are worthy of the McDonald’s server making our fries 😂🤣😂
the crumble wasnt authentic, the top has to be baked and crusty
We shall search for authenticity, we know not to judge a food by its pretty trendy version, we want the old ugly version the old lady’s been making for 80 years lol
@@Trippingthroughadventures😂😂
The market has been there 1k years, so wev had time to get things right. Cod or Haddock are best fish and chips. The not liking the food is a through back to WW2 when finally the Americans arrived we had had 2 years of rationing. So our food was extreamly limited like 2oz of butter a week, so get with it US our food is much healther than yours far less chemicals and amazing veriaty. I live in a tiny village with 2 pubs a Amazing Chinese resturant and a wonderful Chippy ( i lived in Hong Kong so i know great Chinese). We also have a Chicken shop and a Pizza place that deliver. All to a tiny village so wind your necks in America.
One of THE BEST places to explore, sample and max out, on food, on the planet!
Agreed we loved it 😍
yeah a lil heavy on the vinegar there ...a 3rd of that would be plenty...really liked the vid though ... im often in borough market ..you might try pie & mash very traditional food theres one not to far from tower bridge called M. Manze ...try the jellied eels aswell ....it opened in 1902 & still has original decor
So we tried pie and mash later, we did not make it to the jellied eels however if this series does good we will try them lol.
@@Trippingthroughadventures Would not recommend! Almost no Londoners actually eat that shit - hence it's quite difficult to find them
I've given you a like and sub guys, not sure how old your channel is, but I enjoyed this and look forward to watching others. Glad you liked the food. As others have said, when you were putting the vinegar on, I was saying whoa after a few shakes lol, and I like a fair amount of vinegar 😂

Just found your channel, and I'm loving your content. I respect that you're both honest about your likes and dislikes for certain foods, but glad that you're enjoying our food so far. I really think you should try a decent Cornish pasty as they are amazing. Just make sure you get one from a proper Cornish Pasty place and not a cheap one from the supermarkets.
Cod is the best. You were a little heavy on the vineger & its usual to put vinegar on 1st as then the salt sticks to it.
Those donuts look amazing. I need to go to London and try one
They was very good 😊
I don't know what time they were there but Humble Crumble's queue normally goes right round the back of the shop. I queued for half an hour for my crumble. Borough Market is normally crazy crouded.
Around 11 am on a Wednesday
@@Trippingthroughadventures I need to remember that. Every time I go its jammed packed.
BTW, if you are still here then near the eating area there is a Japanese bento stall. Well worth a try. I had the chicken katsu.
I could spend a week in there eating all the food that looked good lol next trip we will give it a go.
"Near the eating area"??? The entire place is an eating area. 😖
What I meant was "near the SEATING area"
Fun fact: a market has stood on the Borough Market footprint for over a 1000 years.
I live about 20 mins from there and you are right. if you live that close you go as often as possible. Good choice to go early as it gets way too crowded with tourists later on. Some of the best food in London IMO, if a little pricey. Maybe try more savoury stuff next time, even though doughnuts are fantastic!
My grandfather use to say I’d rather pay $10 for a good meal than $3 for a bad one lol as you can tell by the prices this was a long time ago…. We later regretted our choice of so many sweets lol 😂
Great vid❤ Borough Market is the 'dogs bollox' for food on the hoof. Plus the tiny, tiny pub there that only serves beer is always a joy to squeeze into for a cold one❤
I pray the dogs balls is similar to the bees knees 😂🤣😂🤣
British people are going to immediately comment when you don't say please and thank you. It really grates on us. Its basic manners
You made me feel so hungry watching this 😋.
Me too i want to go back lol
We've been in the USA for a month now,....and the food choices are vast, varied and interesting,....but its so bloody ,....EXPENSIVE here!

Good lord those doughnuts looked ridiculous, another cool video guys. Did you get a chance to eat at any Indian restaurants? I’m hoping that’s coming up in a future video lol.
So either we didn’t or we was so blown away we dedicated an entire vlog to it…. I’ll let you guess lol
😂🤞
Hake is still good, Cod and Haddock are very popular too and you also see Plaice quite often, any white fish can be used really, Coley is very good too but my all time favourite for fish and chips is Turbot, the odd fish and chip shop will sell it but it's reasonably rare, you see it a lot more in seafood restaurants and it tends to be quite expensive too, but if you ever come across Turbot on your travels definitely try it, it's a really delicious fish.
Cool channel folks. Glad you have discovered UK food is actually really good. (Mostly!). Stereotypes be darned. 😄
I'm inspired by you guys.. i'm planning a trip to the food market...Thank you
We got a couple more food market vlogs coming up they was equally amazing 🤩
A small tip. Always put the vinegar on first. It makes the salt stick to the fish & chips with the vinegar on before 🫡
Hope you enjoyed , Borough Market has been there for hundreds of yrs . Making me very hungry .😊
To be fair there wasn’t much about your beautiful country that we didn’t enjoy it.
Thanks for the video and keep up the good work. YT can be an unforgiving place in the comments, with all sorts of pedantic and rude stuff, but some honesty and enthusiasm will get you a long way and there is always a silent majority.

Small tip: vinegar before salt on the fish and chips 😀
It was our first day and we was so overwhelmed about what was around us we did everything backwards
You didn’t have the cherry,you had the blackcurrant!
When I went to the Borough Market I had 6 oysters - to die for better than the ones I had in Brittany, France.
See, I feel like we didn’t scratch the surface of the market. All these comments makes me want to go back and eat more. I’m Floridian I love raw oysters lol.
Don't forget to try a Cornish pasty.
Borough Market is for tourists it's ok but try Camden Market I think you would prefer it there top food !
We have a vlog coming up on that one
Lolol. 100% not true. The food at Borough Market is light years ahead of Camden, and Camden is way more touristy - I used to live in Camden for five years and I'm London born and bred

So you went to Borough Market and started with doughnuts. There is fantastic produce at the market how about trying the cheeses, the cold meats the vegetables but no Doughnuts admittedly better than any thing in the US how about being a bit more adventurous. You missed out on a lot. Go to the South bank at weekends fantastic choice.
I’m really feeling judged right now 😂 I could have edited to make it like we are the fish and chips first, but I felt like this was a judgement free zone😂🤣… so how things look in vlogs don’t play out like they do in real life, the places we chose was tactical, because they are “trendy” to an American viewer. The plan was to eat them and then get other stuff, but we wasn’t planning on them being that good … and …eating all it …. And then getting sad cuz we ate to much … and then leaving to walk off the fat sadness.
Im amazed you thought our donuts were so good . I was in Quakertown PA a few years ago and just fell in love with the cinnamon donuts and coffee , Id be the size of a house if I lived there.
Also , whilst we say 'fish and chips with salt and vinegar' , the vinegar goes on first so that the salt sticks to the chips, otherwise the vinegar can wash the salt off.
Great vid guys , love it x
So I think it’s just the lack of chemical in it, a lot of our doughnuts crispycreme Dunkin’ taste so processed but I’m sure you had good doughnuts around those Amish areas.
@@Trippingthroughadventures Thats a good point , I never thought of that but arent donuts just fried dough with added fruit and or flavoured custards topped with sugar ? Are they really filled with preservatives , E-numbers etc ?

If you want to be shown around Nottinghamshire - Robin Hood county - then happy to help. There's a street in Radford that serves the best kebabs in the world, no contest. Sadly our best fish restaurant went out of business due to the pandemic lockdowns, but there's still plenty of other great food.
nice to see someone else like me that likes there fish and chips on there vinegar
If there was something wrong with it they would limit it 🤣😂🤣😂
Boss level vinegar pour on your fish and chips there. Respect!
“To much vinegar” is statement quitters make.
@@Trippingthroughadventures 😂Exactly!
when adding the vinegar, i was - please stop now
Funny we was like “ what’s the appropriate amount? lol do we cover it all? Well we have to cover it all or else it wouldn’t make sense?” lol🤣😂🤣😂
@@Trippingthroughadventures It is each to their own! fair play for giving the fish n chips a go.
Good video, welcome to blackcurrant flavours. I have subscribed
Did you have the doughnuts before the fish and chips??? I would have had the cakes after, not first, spoils your taste buds for the fish and chips.
We moved away from London, dont miss it at all, till I see these videos then I do. The food looks amazing.
We did we wondered aimlessly down the alley ways eating what we thought looked good
@@Trippingthroughadventures it all looked good, glad you are enjoying the food
We did it was all wonderful
Hi guys, Glasgow is thee place you need to visit. Tikka masala was invented here RIP M r Ali, no sub standard Indian restaurant will last 5 mins here. Seems the Chinese Curry sauce was also invented here. It's a place of great food from all over the planet, stunning architecture, beautiful parks/gardens and AMAZING museums (free), one of the oldest underground transport systems in the world. definitely open mikes, we have the best bands Simple Minds, Travis, Texas so many many more. Comedians Billy Connolly, Kevin Bridges, etc etc. As for Nessie, don't worry we know she's there and ok. The deal is she plays hide & seek with the visitors😉. I'll get back to you regarding the castles, but trust me You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet till you come to God's own Country.
I got some goose bumps not going to lie 😂😂🤣😂
That's very little like a proper crumble. The crumble should be baked on top if the fruit, which gives texture gradation from sludge to cake to crumble to crunch, with some caramelised fruit.
YOUR MISSUS ATE THE DATE ON THE STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING DOUGHNUT ...... if that doesn't warrant at least a trial separation idk what does
I thought about it, but she’s been with us so long she almost like a part of the family 🤣😂🤣😂
i want all them doughnuts!!!
😔 me too.. me too…
I’m loving your England vlogs and your reactions to the food but it’s way too dark!! Is there any way to lighten what you’re recording so we can see details? Can’t wait for the next instalment.
Thank you that was an issue with the camera (user error issue lol ) that lasted from this vlog and part of the next one that should clear up after that.
Blackcurrant NOT Cherry, it was banned in the states until fairly recently. The berries have a coating that affects some trees ! (I think !)
Allegedly the Food reputation is a result of the American soldiers opinion during WWII when Brits were quite heavily rationed ! Especially compared to what the recently arrived GIs were used to !
If you like Fruit Pies ! Try GOOD Crumble, Apple Crumble, Rhubarb Crumble ! My favourite is Gooseberry Crumble but Hens teeth are more common, usually if I want it I have to Make it Myself !
Quite a lot of British food has been "appropriated?" from somewhere else ! CURRY anyone ?
You should also try saying please when you order things. Just saying.
We do, on the dough nut I was reaching and drop the camera as I was saying “thank you soo much” so I had to clip it. We also stayed there for a few minutes talking to the staff and raving about our experience and how great a job they’re doing. But as vloggers in a world of vloggers we see how insincere that comes off with a camera in their face. That’s also why are shots arnt perfect we don’t want to put any one out just so we can have a nice shot for our vlog. Either we get it or we don’t. lol my favorite words is “oh , no don’t stop do what you want I’m just an idiot with a camera “ 😂🤣😂
Catching up on your old vids, you're a nice couple. Doesn't feel like you're trying to make friends and are honest when aren't 100 on something. Lots of vloggers eat absolute trash and then complain, like bro go look around. You need to try a norhern curry sometime they seem to have that nailed imo.
Yea we try to be totally honest with food. We love curry we will give that a shot.
How can you go there and not go to the globe tavern for a pint to wash it all down?
We are unaware of Globe tavern but our next vlog is our first pub Experience.
@@Trippingthroughadventures the globe is in borough Market, in the Bridget Jones films she lives in the flat above the pub. It's a very Instagramable place so might be great for your SEO and visibility on TH-cam
@@craigstewart6073 if this series does well we have been talking about a continuation, we will have to check that out when we return.
@@Trippingthroughadventures good luck to you both
@@craigstewart6073 thank you 🙏
As a foodie and Brit and ex chef I was like whaaaaaat nooooo noooooooo noooooooooooooo!!!!! Fish and chips... You shouldn't ever do what you did... The malt vinegar always goes on first... Know why? The salt sticks to the vinegar... When you salt then vinegar... It drops all the salt to the bottom you're effectively washing the salt off 😭
Any way... Glad you enjoyed it here! And if you come back? Vinegar then salt please thankyou ❤
Noted … thank you and I’m sorry if I caused you any mental distress, lol I do apologize. It be like coming to America and taking a bite out of hot dog from the middle first lol 😂
@@Trippingthroughadventures UHMMMMM WE ALL KNOW THAT THE BEST IS THE MIDDLE PART 😏 and dontcha worry hehe ❤️ oh and if you do visit again etc... a tip for you... Avoid the jellied eels... Every nation has their weird foods... That's the Brits one ❤️
@@ysabelcook9521 nah we are going for some jellied eels next time, gross or not I got to try it or try to gag it, which ever is to be 😂🤣🤣
If you do it properly 'grazing' the samples at Borough Market, you can be totally full in a couple of hours and don't have to buy anything...
Like at costcos you have you a nice Sunday meal if you take your time lol let um forget ur face and go back for seconds 🤣😂
vinegar first mate so the salt sticks to it
Salt and malt vinegar for the win.
Some peoples saying it was way to much… to be fair… I coulda put more 😂🤣😂 an im not ashamed to say it lol 😂
@@Trippingthroughadventures If you have the time in London try some pie and mash, have it with the liquer sauce and add chili vinegar and white pepper. Pie and mash is working class food, cheap and VERY filling, you don't really see pie and mash shops anywhere else other than London.
You also need to go to Brick Lane and try the Indian food, London (and the UK) is the home to the second largest community of Indian peoples out side of India itself.
And don't forget to try a full English breakfast at least once 😄
So I’m currently in America trying to find where I can find bangers, so the eggs and toast is easy we get Heinz beans and brown sauce in our international section and I lucked into some bacon lol. And I love the pies but that will have to be winter time food it’s already 29 degrees in Florida, so something that heavy will ruin a man lol.
@@Trippingthroughadventures From what I've seen the closest thing to bangers in the US is what you guys call "breakfast sausages", if you can find blood sausage (black pudding) you should give it a try too, it's one of those things that sounds gross,but once you fry it, it's god tier!
@@Trippingthroughadventures Have you tried bubble and squeak ?
Best food in my life. And we've been to....Murica 😆
8:08. I can't believe you just did that
We defy the odds lol
Awesome 🎉❤
Thank you
Be aware that £4.50 is INCREDIBLY expensive for a doughnut. That is about 4x the average price.
So if this series goes well as it’s going we will be back soon but we are going to focus on less touristy more standard English places we are currently setting up a membership program to help prepare for it.
@@Trippingthroughadventures I should add that £4.50 for a very, very, very nice donut as a treat is pretty fair, before you think us all skinflints
Need to try real crumble. So wrong 😅 needs to be mire like granola texture not thin layer of powdery stuff. Loved the look of the donuts though!!
