What was your area noted for in terms of local food dishes. Years ago in mine it was Hot Pot. You don't see it hardly now.

"Parmo!

Straight from Wikipedia...

The Parmo or Teesside Parmesan[1] is a breaded cutlet dish originating in Middlesbrough and a popular item of take-away food in the North East of England. Similar to a schnitzel, it traditionally consisted of pork in breadcrumbs topped with a white béchamel/Parmesan sauce and Parmesan cheese; there are many variations, including non-pork cutlets. The Teesside version differs from the Italian Parmesan which is made with veal and uses Gruyère cheese instead of béchamel sauce

Absolutely bloody lovely they are!

One pie and mash shop left local to me and I don't like it.

We have to go further East to get proper pie and mash.

We have a couple of Caribbean takeaways opened up and more Turkish restaurants. Every other shop on our high streets is now a fast food shop of some description.

No doubt Jamie Oliver will open a joint knocking out Pie and Mash and charge £25

and it will be full.

I went a couple of years ago. Promised my nan I'd go get a baigel before she passed away.
