Back on the menu?
Can you tell the difference between Salisbury steak and steak Diane? Do you remember vol-au-vents and banana splits? Sadly, these dishes that once graced dinner tables and restaurant menus have fallen out of fashion or simply been forgotten. Some might argue that the nostalgic treats are best left in the past, but we think they deserve a second chance. Here, we reveal the bygone dishes worthy of a comeback, counting down to the one we most want to see return.
Click or scroll through our gallery to discover the old-school dishes we think should make a return.
We've based our ranking on the enduring popularity of each dish, and on the opinions of our well-travelled (and well-fed) team. This list is unavoidably subjective.
