It looks something like this:


The best I have ever tasted was from a seafront kiosk in Ramsgate over 2 decades ago, but I've had some pretty good stuff elsewhere!

Mmmmmm,

With a nice creamy vanilla/bourbon sauce!!!

As we Sandwich Islanders say, "Broke da mout!" or if on Maui, "No ka oi!"

'Broke da mout' is Pigeon English, (a combination of English, Spanish, and various Polynesian languages used by 18th and 19th century traders to communicate with pacific islanders). Literally “broke the mouth” meaning it’s so good that it broke my mouth when I ate it. “No ka oi” is Hawaiian for “none better”, usually used when referring to the Island of Maui, the “Garden Isle, no ka oi”.

Correct - dip strip of toast in egg (yolk **must** be liquid, white must be solid), retrieve toast. The yolky end of the toast is considered to resemble a guardsman's bearskin (aka busby). Just to further demonstrate culinary cultural diffusion, the busby was adopted by English guards regiments as a back-handed compliment to the Napoleonic Imperial Guard post-Waterloo.

Apologies - this was meant as reply to QZ's post; slow internet connection,gross impatience, posted in wrong position. sigh.
