No need to come at me all snooty. Don't get me wrong and assume I'm taking some idiot nationalist stance - I'd love to visit and go to all kinds of restaurants. Eating while traveling is the best. If I got proven wrong that'd be awesome.

But for me it's the same type of idea as Philly cheese steaks. I bet there's some place in Wisconsin or something that does a Philly style cheese steak that's just as good or better than one you'd get in Philly. The conceit of location is way overblown.

Speaking of conceit and being snooty: assuming your defensiveness means you're from the UK, are you one of those folks that sees sausage gravy and goes "that's not gravy! Gravy's brown!"?

Youre backpedaling now. Before it was that you thought the US did UK food better than the UK. Now youre saying that some places other than the UK might possibly do it better than the average place in the UK. Those are very different claims.

I dont live in the UK, though I have done. I also travel extensively and used to be a professional chef.

Ive no issue with other kinds of gravy. I wasnt brought up on bisto. However, as somebody else has already pointed out, biscuits and gravy dont exactly look appealing. Ive only ever tried them twice, and was thoroughly disappointed both times, so I doubt there will ever be a third.
