So today @Kerry Beal got right into the spirit of the Crusty Chronicles.
First stop:
From left to right: two chicken pot pies (one on top of the other), a steak and mushroom pie and finally a steak and kidney pie. I had a steak and kidney pie from here some years back and it was delicious so I have high hopes.
Perhaps more importantly Kerry came away knowing that on Saturdays they make three different sausage rolls. One is made with their own sausage, one with a honey garlic sausage and one with what they described as a country sausage. Visiting Ernie’s on a Saturday will be made a Kerry mission for one of the weekends when she is not holding down the ER in Dunnville.
Next up:
I know at least a couple of you will enjoy browsing the shelves:
On the top shelf you will notice Heinz salad cream. I almost asked for a bottle and then remembered that I had tried it again a few years back and found it quite revolting. Strange because I have only good memories of it when I lived there.
I was especially interested in the pickled onions. I want the ones that make you pucker up. No wussie onions for me.
I was really torn between the Thurston‘s and the Heywoods. (Damn, I just noticed the jar of piccalilli.) And I do wonder what those Tesco soups are like.
Here is the loot:
No worries. I will not be eating bourbon biscuits and pickled onions at the same time. The biscuits are a product of dear old Marks and Sparks.
