FOOD

Scouse

Scouse

A type of stew typically made from meat (usually beef or lamb) with potatoes, carrots, and onions; it is particularly associated with the city of Liverpool, to the extent that the Liverpool accent is also widely referred to as "Scouse" and locals as "Scousers"; it is similar to Irish stew or Lancashire hotpot, though generally using beef rather than lamb.

Manchester Tart

Manchester Tart

Classic, cheeky, and impossible not to love — that's the Manchester Tart; its roots go back to Victorian times, when the city's working-class families needed affordable treats; layers of short-crust pastry, raspberry jam, custard, and a sprinkle of coconut (sometimes topped with a cherry) make this a delicious dessert.

Pie and Mash

Pie and Mash

This British working-class dish, which originated in the docks of London and is considered a "Cockney classic", typically consists of a minced beef pie served with mashed potato and a parsley sauce known as liquor, with malt vinegar as a condiment; Pie and mash shops have been in London since the 19th century and are still common in East and South London.
