In the United Kingdom, November 4th is celebrated as Roast Dinner Day, bringing together the national charity "Food for Life" and communities for a shared enjoyment of a hearty roast meal.

A classic British roast dinner typically features roast meat, potatoes, vegetables, and various accompaniments. Among these, Yorkshire pudding stands out—a savory baked dish crafted from a batter of eggs, flour, and milk, often filled with rich gravy. Traditionally reserved for Sunday meals after church, the roast dinner has gradually become a mid-week favorite. In the UK, especially in cozy pubs, this culinary tradition is celebrated on Sundays, offering a blend of local ingredients and contemporary flair.
