A Scotch egg at Fortnum & Mason on Piccadilly, London.
Fortnum & Mason, which has been trading since 1707, claims to have invented the Scotch egg in 1738 as a portable snack for travellers. The photo shows the version served in its restaurant.
The Piccadilly store is a short walk from Green Park and Piccadilly Circus stations and is worth a visit for its food halls and famous tea and hampers.


We stopped at Piccadilly Circus on the way. See the rest of the trip in A Week in London.
