Description
This book tells the story of London's beloved Eel and Mash shops, an institution that has been a staple of the city's food scene for centuries. From its humble beginnings in 1844 to the present day, the eel has played a significant role in shaping London's culinary identity.
The author has carefully selected some of the most interesting and significant Eel and Mash shops to feature in this book, using the eel as a metaphor for the cultural changes that have shaped the city. With its unique blend of history, culture, and symbolism, The Englishman & the Eel is a fascinating tribute to an enduring institution.
A special introduction by journalist and broadcaster Michael Collins adds another layer of depth to this engaging book, making it a must-have for anyone interested in London's culinary heritage.
