Maybe when you two lovely people go home you can let your family and friends know the myth about British food being bland and tasteless is exactly that A MYTH, anyway stay happy and healthy everyone ✌️

[@davidbrooks187]

Good morning from London, the myth regarding British food being bland & tasteless goes back to the second world war where a British soldiers rations were very bland and tasteless because this was the best way to preserve the food. The reality is British food is incredible and is a staple for the western world like the English breakfast and the English roast dinner including the great English pie, the great English sausage & much more 🇬🇧👍⚔️

[@gordongekko3174]

BUT it is bland, most of the brit food IS BLAND, since more cultures have relocated to Britain hence overall you might find some spice taste etc,

[@wynfordemanuel4792]

The New York Times journalist Robert Draper reckoned Londoners ate (quite recently) boiled mutton and porridge. He may have been correct about the porridge though.

[@EASYTIGER10]

@@gordongekko3174 That IS now British food. That's what Brits do with cuisines, assimilate

[@richjones7313]

@@wynfordemanuel4792 shouldnt be in the position hes in with that level of ignorance lol. the guy is a couple of centuries out. best i can do is my grandfather liked to eat beef dripping on toast

[@stevebton]

I thoroughly applaud the amount of pubs you went to and the beers you drank - you fully fit in with the British crowd :-)

[@DarcyDigs]

For an American to say they had the best pulled pork sandwich is the UK is impressive! British food really is incredible. Thanks for a gorgeous video. I love your energy!

[@ashleys4652]

Don't feel guilty, eating the food while traveling is part of the experience. It's one of my favorite parts of your videos.

[@salvadormarley]

Thank you for being so respectful to our country.

[@titchs9098]

Can’t beat steak and kidney pie! And the sausage rolls from the Ginger Pig, in Borough Market 🤤

[@swampy1234]

You guys are seeing more of London than I have in 35 years 😂😂. BTW you guys really seem comfortable in London!

[@paulhanson5164]

Good to see some of you travel bloggers destroying the myth that you can't get good food in the UK.

A couple of days in the UK and you are taking about the weather. We approve!

[@peppapig3761]

My love for London is great. I live in London Wimbledon best diverse city in the world

[@BrendanJohnDoherty]

People, who have never tried British food take the piss and completely dismiss it, straight off the bat! Really glad that you guys had so much fun in England. Can't wait to get back home this Christmas 🙂

[@Melanie-qr2nf]

OMG, the food looks so amazingly good. It has been 20 years since we visited there and now I look forward to a future trip.

[@brody5211]

You’ve inspired me to go back to London , purely for the food 🥘 !

[@mickymouze1224]

Steak & kidney is a great combo in a pie, especially when made with love. Glad you enjoyed the food, us Brits get bashed for our 'bland' food but you made scotch eggs, sausage rolls and pasties (your Weymouth vid) sound like heaven.

[@mrkiplingreallywasanexceed8311]

Which they are.... no one should ever mix up "simple" with "bland"

[@mickymouze1224]

@@mrkiplingreallywasanexceed8311 I agree they are heaven so long as you avoid the rubbish they sell in supermarkets and buy from those who know how to make them. Our 'bland' food myth dates back to 1945 when we were on rations and the American GI's assumed it's how we always live. Times have obviously changed since then but many are still too dumb to figure that out.

So pleased you enjoyed your stay in London and that you enjoyed 'English food'. I've lived in London all my 57 years, as well as my friends, and none of us eat at these places because of the prices. WAY WAY to expensive, a tourist hot spot. Like any city anywhere in the world, you can get great food, IF, you know where to go.

[@terencecarroll1812]

London and Greater London is very expensive so you'll find the further away you go the cheaper it gets, but no less tasty

[@shellybreaux7633]

I just wanted to say Thanks for your recommendations we went to Spitalfield Market today & ate at Dirty Bagel. Let me say how yummy their pulled pork sandwich was. Delicious 🤤 Love watching your travel videos !

[@stevelaw6243]

So glad you guys enjoyed my hometown. London really suits you. Great blog as usual.

[@abi7183]

I love how you put "the" in front of all the locations - "the" Tower Bridge, "the" London Bridge, "the" Borough Market, "the" Spitalfields Market...lol! To us locals they're just Tower Bridge, London Bridge, Borough Market, Spitalfields Market... That said, do love your relationship, you guys are so cute together and your personalities make the videos fun to watch.

[@rawwbnoles4787]

Damn. Yeah, I suppose that's an American thing. That's really interesting. When you refer to places like London Bridge and Borough Market, are you referring to it as a place or moreso an entity itself?

[@rawwbnoles4787]

I really gave that some more thought. We Yanks say things like The Washington Monument, or The White House. I've no idea why that's a part of our American English. Proper nouns don't require a "The".

[@annabuttimore6819]

I’ve noticed that with an American friend who is currently in Scotland visiting “The Edinburgh Castle” and “The Stirling Cathedral”. It just sounds really odd to have that definite article in there.

[@Lixmage]

Glad you enjoyed the food, and LOVE the retro Atari T-shirt however big mistake not trying the steak and kidney pie - HUGE mistake, HUGE!!!

[@terencecarroll1812]

So many people are told UK food is bland, boring and tasteless, unfortunately those that tell them, have never been here or tried it 🤔

[@Billy.Nomates]

It dates back to when American troops were stationed here during the war,British people were on rations,and the troops went home thinking we always ate such basic food Unfortunately it stuck

[@egonrhoodie2745]

So glad you are enjoying London! Grew up in Knightsbridge! Golden memories!!! The late 60s early 70s magic! 😇🙏🎊🎉

[@sleepingstate1978]

I love hearing you both talking about diets all the time, then eat 7 portions of glorious food a day.

[@samdavis3873]

Absolutely love you two. A really lovely couple and so entertaining.

[@qtredhead]

At Spitalfields you were less than 10 minutes away from Brick Lane Beigels - the BEST salt beef beigels around…

[@douglasbrown5692]

Nope, not everybody thinks London Bridge is Tower Bridge - but for some reason, every American thinks it is. So much so, that 45 yrs ago an American businessman bought the (very ordinary and worn out) prior London Bridge and shipped it back home. He was said to be somewhat disappionted with his purchase! I believe he reassembled it somewhere in the Arizona desert........

[@lisamarie1470]

Everything looks so tasty 😋 I swear I feel full just watching this video🤭

[@kirkglover6253]

Thank you for being so positive, just found your channel,its lovely to see you enjoying life so much ....cheers

[@lindylou7853]

The wind on London Bridge can sweep you off your feet sometimes. HMS Belfast is moored up next to London Bridge. That’s worth a visit, too. Spitalfields is an ancient market. Now surrounded by businesses, as well as a few of the original London hospitals.

[@04mancusos]

Just binged the London videos, very enjoyable watching people explore as i am only 15 mins train ride to central London. You've explored more of London than i have in 29 years! haha

Fantastic food at Borough Market…but ridiculously expensive.

Love all the food stops on your tour of London!

[@RonSeymour1]

London Bridge was situated not far from the current one. It had a lot of arches which increased water flow and it was covered in shops and houses. There is an old nursery rhyme, "London Bridge is falling down". It is worth alittle research to see what it looked like.

[@tonybennett7904]

I remember the markets when they sold fruit and veg ,used to drink in Borough market when I lived in Leather Lane,although I preferred the Founders Arms at Blackfriars

The stereotype largely stems from US troops stationed here in WW2 when everything was rationed and much was just completely unavailable.

@@IanDarley the stereotype is real it’s just that with immigration Britain has become to learn different foods from around the world. Some real British food is good but if I had to survive purely on British food I will go insane. British food is bland. World food is not…

@@John76125 Maybe, maybe not. At least there's plenty of fresh meat, vegetables and fruit now and no more need for powdered eggs and rationed sugar. Everything during the war was bulked up with bread or potatoes and usually grey and tasteless. I like Chinese or Indian food myself, but there's nothing bad or bland about a full roast or a beef Wellington dinner + a nice desert.
