THere's a company in Glasgow that do street food - but due to licensing difficulties now have to serve it out of pubs - if you ever get a chance to try Smoak's smoked brisket roll - do so!!!

A real good hotdog is another favourite.

The thing for me at fairs is it has to be "walk and eat" food - not knife and fork.

Used to be a place sold brilliant bratwurst and knockwurst in Andover. Also like a good venison burger. Agree with Duncan on queues.

You just reminded me of the small German town I often visit on business; there is a place there that does a mean currywurst and chips for those post Altbier munchies....

If in the borders or north of, before midday, a full breakfast in a stottie, everything well done and snided in a decent brown sauce. The sort of meal that means you need to buy a new T-shirt ( or have a wife that carries a spare in the car ) after eating it. Otherwise a meaty pie with suet pastry, not flakey.


After midday, to be honest we slope off and find whatever chippy the locals use and have cod and chips with separate curry sauce. Usually no wait and normal prices not event ones.

I'm now drooling. And what do I have to eat, "healthy" bannock made with 3 parts oats, 1 part self raising flour, 1 part ground almonds, fake sugar, baking powder and warm milk with almond essence added.

Its not the same....

At the market in Shrewsbury, I always slope of to the hog roast stall for a pork bap with gravy and a lovely bit of crackling on the side.

Well thanks guys ( and I assume Gals ) for all the suggestions so far , I was attempting to see if one food stuff/type was more popular than another but so far diversity seems to be leading!

Please feel free to keep going.

Another post-beer snack I remembered (bit of a theme here..)

When I first visited Prague it wasn't long after the fall of the wall, so the Western brands hadn't got in, nor the street vendors pushed out. THE most divine creation was a kind of half baguette impaled on a spike, squirted with mustard and then filled with a hot dog.

No it wasn't me photographing my own snack in case you wondered.

Easily the best (probably worst!) end of "session" snack in Newcastle in the early 80's, was a couple of "Westlers" hot dogs from one of the filthy trollies that used to to be found scattered around the town.(possibly the inspiration for Terry Pratchett's; C.M.O.T. Dibbler)

Heaped with boiled onion and daubed with both ketchup and the unbelievably strong mustard, dispensed from the manky squeezy bottles.

I once tried a hot dog as above, before getting a belly full of beer one night and the mustard almost melted my eyes! I think that was the last time I partook of that particular delicacy.

Otherwise, various kebabs, depending on state of sobriety.

These days, I love "bait van" sausage, egg and bacon "stotties" ( large'ish, flat, bread bun-very ethnic if you're a proper Geordie) Not that I get the chance to scoff many mind you:rolleyes:

Ahhh, the "healthy option" every time:cool:

In the Morning I like a bacon and egg sarnie. for lunch provided I can find somewhere to sit I like a jacket potato with butter and cheese. I never one until I see a few that have been sold before though as I had small soggy jacket potatoes and think they are the ultimate disappointment. If I am walking home with a few beers on board it is just a bag of chips for me.

Spuds and sausages in various forms seem a common factor here plus a bit of something spicey.

I have a business plan

Richard's Banger Spud U'Like Curry Emporium

Got to be a winner.
