Lovely pub by Smithfield - Fox and Anchor

I have often yearned for the perfect pub, nice selection of drinks, and lovely simple food that is better than you make at home. The Anchor and Hope on the Cut by Southwark tube station is one of my faves for rib-sticking slow cooked sharing dishes, but not really suitable just for drinks. The Fox and Anchor on the other hand is perfect for either. Bar snack include homemade pork pies and scotch eggs (and they were really home-made too) which were delicious, goose fat fried chips, homemade pork scratchings, pint of prawns, fresh oysters on ice. They also had a roasted piece of pork belly to be sliced for sandwiches with apple sauce. mmm. I was spoilt for choice and will be going back as often as I can without having a heart attack!
Nothing very low cal/cholesterol though, so not for the abstemious but Mylene Klass was there at lunch today if you're interested in celebrity spots
