I checked on Wikipedia, supposely it's a little bit like Bovril. I like beef Bovril in "Chinese soup à la Miche" and Mexican "biftek ranchero à la Miche" too lol, and as a hot drink in Winter. Best thing I ever found to fell asleep.

No way I try British food, the only thing these guy has ever done well as far as I'm concerned is Fish and chips (not healty wise however) in a cone of newspaper that you can buy close to the sea.

Have you ever seen a restaurant of British cuisine ? No, well that says it all.

I hope for them, but the Smitwick or Guiness at room temperature with an egg in it is not high on my list of gastronomical positive experience...

There's a pub at UBC (something with sons involve - I know it's Irishy sound) and they have excellent finger food there. Yum!
 
Fish n chips! Best Brit food ever invented!

I once bought 2 boiled hamburgers in London, 5 $ each if I remember well (beginning of the 80's!!!), with boiled onions. The meat was boiled, the bread soaked in hot water, no condiments. I was homesick, that's why I ordered those. I was MORE HOMESICK after that lol.

Boiled hamburger meat? Perish the thought!!! Eck.
 
On another note, nobody makes tea like the Brits. I don't know what they put in their tea but I can't replicate it no matter how hard I try.

Of course, I'm kidding. But I didn't remeber anything special about their tea I must say, except that it is quality tea a la twinnings, not red rose bitter crap.
