That's nothing like toad in the hole. Its closest relative would be a Welsh rarebit (aka cheese on toast) and it's not even very close to that.
I have literally no idea why they named this toad in the hole.

That makes more sense but the opening paragraph mentions it's part of their English menu and a tribute to a British chef he used to work for which makes it even odder for them to make a completely American dish

On the left is a 'Wigan Kebab' which is a meat pie in a bread roll. On the right is a 'smack barm pay wet' which is a potato fritter with reduced pea water on top also in a bread roll. Wigan is an odd place

Normally I fricking hate the NY Times, but I hate Bongs even more so I guess NYT gets to be based for once by reminding Bongs that they're completely irrelevant and whatever way America does things is the objectively correct way.
