Tea drinking traditions in Great Britain are connected with the Victorian era of England. It was the period of Queen Victoria's reign from June 1837 until her death on 22 January 1901. Queen Victoria was fond of drinking tea and made it a court tradition. She even created “Tea Moralities” — English rules of tea ceremony which served a base for modern European tradition of tea drinking.

One of the world famous British traditions is “five o’clock tea”, which appeared in the 19^th century. In 1840 Anna Russell, the duchess Bedford, the court lady of the queen, decided to arrange additional tea drinking between lunch and traditionally late dinner. Anna Russell asked her butler to bring her tea with bread and butter, as she always felt hungry waiting for evening meal. Soon she began to invite her friends to visit her sitting room and to have a cup of tea. And a simple tea drinking ceremony became a socially important event. Some time later this tradition grew in popularity among the middle class Englishmen who tried to imitate rich people’s habits. Besides tea drinking was a rather inexpensive way to bring several friends together and entertain them without spending too much money. Thus, tea drinking ceremony quickly became an English tradition.

Fish and Chips

 

The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is a country strongly associated with the sea and its abundant seafood. There are many seafood restaurants located around the coastline where you can taste plain but delicious cod, plaice or haddock. However, there are popular regional variations with whiting in Northern Ireland and Scotland, and skate in the South of England. You can also find some more exotic varieties of fish such as red snapper, hoki and even shark now appearing on menus.

One of the most popular British meals is “fish and chips” (sometimes written " fish 'n' chips" ). It consists of deep-fried fish (traditionally cod, haddock or flounder) in batter or breadcrumbs with deep-fried chipped (slab-cut) potatoes. This is a quick, cheap food bought in a Fish-and-Chip Shop, which is sometimes called “CHIPPY”. The food, usually wrapped in paper, can be eaten at home or in the street. The chips usually have salt, and vinegar and sometimes tomato ketchup on them. “Fish 'n' chips” has also become very fashionable in some of the top restaurants and pubs as leading chefs create their own version of high-class “fish and chips”.
