When Jack Curvis - who was featured in 2006 on Hyde Daily Photo Vol.1 - retired a few years ago his tripe stall on Hyde Indoor Market was taken over by Lyndon Boot who continues to sell traditional tripe and cow heel as well as rag puddings, a range of low fat sausages and other delicacies.
A recent addition is a sculpture of a bull which has been firmly fixed above the stall.
A contribution to Blue Monday.
Yuck, only ever eaten it once while in Manchester, every one elce was lapping the stuff up and laughed at me turning my nose up. I did not like the taste or the texture
ReplyDeleteGreat name!
ReplyDeleteHi Gerald,
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a nice clean place to make a purchase. I'm glad it's stayed open. Thanks for making Blue Monday special.
I'm looking forward to reading your comment on my Crayon Dress post. Please come back.
Happy Blue Monday!
Looks like a fun place to shop. I like getting a glimpse inside places like this. Thanks for that.
ReplyDeleteNice to see that someone keeps traditions going, but exactly what is tripe?
ReplyDeleteEvery day, my dear, every day.
ReplyDeleteThe bull sculpture is something else. As I recall, tripe is something edible from the stomach of certain animals.
ReplyDeleteAn interesting shopping experience. I am not a fan of tripe but many love it! I have neve b=seen cow heels for sale . Something new and always glad to stop by and say hello. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteEgads! As a vegetarian, I wouldn't be interested. No thanks! (But even in my carnivorous past I wouldn't have been interested.)
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Lyndon and his family eat and enjoy the offal he sells? Good to see the 5* food standard rating. I wish him well in his venture.
