No customer is too picky for this boutique butcher in an unlikely corner of London's East End.
With sawdust strewn across the floor and a well-worn timber chopping block in constant use, R. Hussey, Licensed Butcher and Game Dealer, in Wapping, just east of the Tower of London, is one of England’s truly old-fashioned 'High Street' butchers. The store is so small that customers line up outside in the cold for their Scotch eggs, lamb chops, Cumberland or Lincolnshire sausages.
How do Hussey and his ilk survive in the face of competition from supermarket chains?
