Scottish Butchershop

[peppyre]

I was talking to my mom yesterday and had mentioned that I huge craving for Black Pudding and she said she wasn't sure where you could actually buy it now since all of the butcher's have closed. The Auld Scottish Larder and it's other incarnation are gone, The Britannia in Surrey is gone, Laidlaw's closed 2 years ago, and don't even mentions Blacks. His Pudding is supplied by Freybe's and it's awful! ( I have told the guys at Freybe's this too, they never listen). So my hunt now begins.

Does anyone know of any British Butchershops/Bakeries that are left anywhere in the Lower Mainland? Yes, I am willing to drive anywhere, even if it means driving into Richmondjavascript:emoticon('') I'm also willing to go with a mail order source too. This is part of my heritage and I certainly can't loose it because so many in this city don't know good food when it bites on the assjavascript:emoticon('')

Oyama Sausage at Granville Island usually has some on hand. Not really their specialty, but it is as good as anywhere else I've found.

Is there not a little store in Steveston that lots of things from the U.K. ?

I think they have some meats.

They do haggis & black pudging and all that groovy stuff. A late co-worker of mine, born and raised in Glasgow, swore by the place.

I know the place well Arne and sadly it is now closed. It used to be The Auld Scottish Larder and then it became Traditional Fayre. My mom went by last week and they closed up shop. It was the last place in the city that was on par with the old Inglereids. I am going to try the one in North Van this week. Hopefully he makes his own.
