The Breadalbane Inn’s Haggis


Drove my wife, Pat up to Fergus February 7, 2009, on an errand and decided to
finally try the haggis at the Breadalbane Inn, From their menu: “haggis
~ a traditional Scottish dish. made with the following ingredients:
sheep’s ‘pluck’ (heart, liver and lungs), minced with onions, oatmeal,
spices and mixed with stock. haggis is traditionally served with “neeps
and tatties” (Scots: turnip and potato), each of these being mashed
separately.” I’ve had haggis before – prepared from frozen at home –
and like it; but, this was something extra ordinary. The scotch whiskey gravy/sauce made it so. I also liked how it came as a chunky stew it is much nicer than the fine ground filling in the sausages or sheeps stomack. I definitely am going back for more! The haggis
is worth the trip to Fergus!
