I dont think the general quality was being berated just the blandness of the overall British diet.
This was the observations of my dear wife when she first arrived here. Believe me, I took her and experienced many of our finest but, alas all found to be tasteless compared to her normal Filipino fare.
Luckily, thanks to the multicultural society we now live, we are able to get most of the Filipino foods we both desire, apart from a few exceptions![]()
