Along next to eels, oysters were former eaten in considerable quantities and regarded as "poor man's food". Since then, the gentle pelecypod has reached the elevated class of gourmet provisions and now eels are as well enjoying a revitalisation.
In previous times, eels in use to come through from the district London rivers. But now they are predominantly caught on the Norfolk Broads, to the northward eastbound of London, and shipped crossed the North Sea to Holland to be processed, in the past arriving at their traditionalistic home: the old London pie and pulp retail store.
