when I asked for rye bread at a sandwich shop, they had never heard of it...and this was in the centre of London, nor had they heard of bratwurst or Swiss cheese
I went to a burger bar chain called Gourmet Burger Kitchen, advertised as an upmarket burger bar, which is really big in London, expecting a great burger and they looked puzzled when I asked for mustard, only served potato wedges on the side and they had never heard of malt shakes
the only places I could find that were decent were French restaurants with resident French chefs and Italian
