"Since 1937, pie and mash has been served at G.Kelly's on Roman Road, all hand-made in their in-house bakery using a recipe passed down through three generations of East Londoners. The ladies serving the pies are the stars of the show - true East London locals who welcome you into the bosom of G.Kelly's with enthusiasm and charm - giving you all the recommendations and advice a naive first-timer needs. Try the liquor sauce — it’s a misleadingly-named savoury parsley sauce — with pie and mash or go all-out East End with jellied eels seasoned with chilli vinegar and white pepper. If you're brave enough." - Adam Johnson
