Cheese Plate
Dorstone Ash
Made at Dorstone Farm, on the Hereford/Welsh border, the Dorstone Ash is a semi-soft cheese made from unpasteurised goat's milk, using animal rennet, It has a crisp white colour that contrasts with blue-ish grey colour of its edible rind, resulting from the coating of ash applied to it. Its texture varies from being fluffy to flaky, depending on its maturity, and its flavour has a slight nuttiness on the rind.
Red Storm
Smartly dressed in vivid red wax, gloriously complex taste due to its 18-21 month maturation the provide the vintage credentials of flavour, finishing on notes of caramel, the Red Storm totally redefines what you might expect from a red Leicester.
Thomas Hoe Smooth Blue
A quintessentially English cheese, Smooth Blue is borne from a century of dairy farming and cheese making expertise on the country estate of the Duke of Rutland. It is hand crafted with a soft creamy texture, and a mild blue taste. It is gentle and delicated compared to other blues on the market, yet it has that recognisable blue flavour. Unusually, it is crafted to be eaten straight from the fridge.
Served with apple and Somerset cider brandy chutney and biscuits.

The Dining menu is offered in the Concorde Dining area, and the Lounge menu - which is shared with the First Lounge next door - is offered elsewhere, see post 582 and discussion thereafter, but yes you can order any item from any place in CCR. In addition to the published menu, the following items are offered from the First Lounge in the afternoon and onwards: bread rolls, toast, sandwiches (ready to go always available but you can ask for custom made sandwiches), egg dishes such as scrambled eggs and omelettes, biscuits, ice creams (several flavours), nuts, savoury snacks and olives. From approx 14:00 to 18:00 hrs, scones and cakes are available (typical examples, Victoria Sponge and Fruit Loaf). There are also a few cold desserts available in the afternoon and evening (e.g. profiteroles). There are two hot Kosher dishes available, these need a bit more time to be prepared, so allow 20 minutes for this.
