Without doubt my favourite meal has to be egg, beans and chips, from a greasy spoon cafe. This wonderful combination of three flavours, simple yet perfectly balanced ,can only be tasted to be really appreciated . The look of this foods is breathtaking ,the golden yellow of the yoke, the white of the white, the bright orange of the beans and the golden brown of the chips would stagger Van Gogh . Egg, chips and beans is the best meal money can buy.
When I eat my egg chips and beans I simply have to sample every combination possible,I know that if I were to miss a vital element in this magical ritual things just would'nt be square and all hell might break loose ! Firstly I have a chip on its own then I try out the beans, next I try out the egg, then I do the pairs ,some chip with a few beans piled on top,some egg with the beans, and then some chip with some egg, finally I can enjoy the moment I've waited for and enjoy some egg, some chip and some beans in one mouthful. Heaven!
So to summarise . This is good British food at its most splendid , good simple fair . You're not find garlic or snail, no bay leaf or unidentified creatures drizzled with five secret spices, no lark's liver ,no dung beetle on beds of mature bat's cheese,no amazing fungus cultivated on the tips of dolphin's flippers and bursting with some new vital vitamin that lowers cholesterol, oh no no no! This is simple grub you can trust. This is the taste of England This is egg beans chips!
