I know it's a week late, but you have to know how nice haggis is. We did the real thing - including the poem first, and had it with neaps and tatties on Burns Night. Gorgeous...as long as you don't stop to think what's actually in the haggis itself. Top marks to Eldred and Jane for a brilliant feast....

The last time I'd had haggis was a formal dinner at Magdelene College years ago when a bagpiper piped the haggis into a long panelled room lit by candlelight....very atmospheric. I'm all for suiting the setting to the food. Although when you get home from work and just want beans on toast, I think that would be fairly low in the ceremony stakes.
