Home Town Delicacies....

[stek]

I think most of us have moved away from our hometown, for me the one thing I miss/crave/get loads of when I'm there - from my home town (of Bolton) are Carr's Pasties.

Eating three of now - yum...

But in Bolton we have had Pastie Wars, some prefer Carr's - others the Ye Olde Pastie Shoppe variety from their bastard 'shoppe' on Churchgate..

Both trounce Greggs offerings, even Ginsters, but I am a Carr's man, to the core.

Or is it Carrs' Pasties?

Any others have cravings?

I think Carr's pasties have anticlockwise riffles along the edge, whereas I prefer clockwise.

Proper spare ribs i.e. salted pork ribs.

Cook until falling off the bone and serve with boiled spuds, cabbage and a knob of butter.

Oakham: Rutland Ales (use to be Ruddles) plus the Grainstore

but to be honest I even miss Wisbech = Elgoods...... and Elgoods is Tulip.... or possibly Pish!
