Overall summary,

Nothing too remarkable ( I'm not a salad person but the soup was a bit too much crumbled stiltony!, I think I had the stew , the Sticky toffee pudding was very good)

The salmon in the salmon en croute was a bit overdone INHO

The cheese plate ( asked for it mid flight) came with a huge pile of biscuits and a large fruit plate and was very good)
