Molly's on 3rd Ave btwn 22nd and 23rd. Best I've had in the city.
-
St Dymphna's in the EV makes an excellent shepard's pie
-
Is Telephone Bar and Grill still around? (2nd ave around 9th street). I used to go there in the 90's, and they alsways had great Shepard's Pie.

It's made with lamb or mutton....clue's in the name.....use beef its COTTAGE pie.
Colonials.

Thanks Rudy. I wish people would realize that in the states. I get crosseyed looks when I mention this (I thought the 'shepard' made that obvious).

Blame all the crappy Irish bars in the US for that one. I had no idea... in fact, on my flight back from the UK, cottage pie was one of the choices and I had no idea what they were talking about. The flight attendant said "it's like Shepherd's Pie")

gordon ramsay's always talking about how great his version is. how come it's not at the london?
and cottage pie and shepherd's pie should remain interchangeable. it's not important enough of a difference to call for distinguishment.
"cottage" is being used in the sense of 'base,' 'rural,' or 'peasant.' like "cottage" cheese. it boils down to being a more romantic moniker for "inexpensive pie."

ok deanlo..... we'll use tuna...and call it Flipper pie...just to keep you happy.
Tuh.
right is RIGHT.
-
Landmark Tavern on 46th & 11th has the BEST!
-
Rudy, you joke, but the idea of a tuna-casserole-ish filling with a potato crust sounds pretty awesome.
-
Sorry - no place on earth beats my mother's cottage OR shepard's pie. *sigh*

I have an ongoing joke with my wife (who claims to hate Irish food). Every time we walk past an Irish pub or restaurant I say something like -- "Oh, Blarney Stone -- I heard they were rated one of the top ten shepard's pies in the cities."
While the notion of mashed potatoes on top of meat and veggies doesn't do it for my wife, I really love the dish. Any suggestions on where one might find a great shepard's pie here in New York?
