This evening, I had another scrumptious traditional English dinner - this time, at the Windsor Castle Pub - which has a wonderful atmosphere. It's located on a Notting Hill side street. (Despite the name, it's nowhere near Windsor Castle.)
I started with a Scottish egg - a British specialty of soft boiled egg wrapped in pork sausage meat & coated with bread crumbs, then baked or deep fried. It came with a side of golden beet piccalilli - a mixture of pickles and spices. It was fantastic - £8 ($10.72)
My main dish was a chicken, ham hock, & leek pie, with red wine gravy, mashed potatoes, & Savoy cabbage. It was scrumptious - £19.50 ($26.13)
My drink was Portuguese Post Scriptum Red Wine from the Douro. it was very nice.
My server, Sam (Samantha), was a warm, ebullient professional.
