the hunt for scotch eggs

While on a business trip to San Francisco, I was introduced to scotch eggs!!

What exactly is a scotch egg? According to wikipedia, it is a hard boiled egg, wrapped in a sausage mixture, coated with breadcrumbs and deep-fried, originating from London.

Scotch Eggs

according to Wexlers - "Burnt Ends, House Made Hot Sauce, Sweet Tea Gastrique"

Look at that deep fried breading!  Look at the still runny yolk!!

Deep fried goodness! But where can I get this in DC you ask? I don't actually know! I've never stumbled upon it in any other restaurants! I've heard that a few Irish/British pubs (Againn DC and Royal Mile Pub) supposedly serve them, but I've yet to confirm that.

The rest of my meal:

Smoked Short Ribs with Apricots!

Very tender and flavorful. The apricots were not what I expected (in a good way!)

Pecan Pie

my friend ordered this.  I'm not a fan of pecan pie, but he looked like he was enjoying it!
