Pie, Licker and Jellied eels from Harringtons

There are many good places to eat in Tooting but it's just off the radar.
Finally made a trip because of Harringtons pie mash which became a priority over Vermicelli.
I'm so glad I tried it and it was certainly memorable especially the menu as liquor is spelt LICKER.
The jellied eels were delicious and they were able to give me extra jelly on a half portion.
The liquor was also comforting as you could taste eel in it as well.

Overall, it was nice but the beef in the pie was a bit chewy for my liking.
All this came to 5.90 as I was charged half a portion for jellied eels :)

McDowell's pie mash

There are two places for pie mash in Romford: Robins and McDowell's.

It has been difficult trying to dine at McDowell's because I always get there late and they are closed but I was lucky that day and it was still open so I had to have it even though I was going to dinner.

Just another pie mash place I thought but the portions here are big and you get lots of liquor.

Trying the liquor first, it was really flavourful and you can really taste the grassiness of the parsley.

The mash was just your regular lumpy mash but adding salt and chilli vinegar to it always makes it tastier.

Moving on to the pie, the minced beef was actually quite tasty compared to some other places as it was salty and it tasted like there was marmite in it.

However the beef was a bit of a let down because there were so many chewy bits, otherwise it would have been perfect because the consistency was good.
