However, may I ask how you got that breakfast? By my deduction you shouldn't have been able to, as the menu below should have been offered. Well done!

Starters
Seasonal leaf salad with smoked salmon, sauteed apple, candied pecans and lemon and herb vinaigrette dressing I deduced you had this?
Tomato bisque You had this as well!

Rotisserie seasoned chicken in a tarragon gravy served with sour cream mashed potatoes and maple syrup roasted vegetables
Garden vegetable quiche with fried green tomatoes and a tomato wine sauce
Seared flat iron steak with a herb demi-glace in a green bean and mushroom ragout served with a potato cake (VS 16, 28, 44, 74, 76 only)
Sole roulade with crab mousse and lobster sauce served with saffron rice and creamed spinach (Not on VS 16, 28, 44, 74, 76) I deduced you had this?

Desserts
Warm apple tart with cinnamon cream Seems you had this?
Belgian chocolate cheesecake

Breakfast

Bacon roll with either tomato ketchup or brown sauce

Thanks for posting the menu! Hope you enjoyed the bed.
We were on flight number 4, which left at 6:25 PM.

You're correct - the English breakfast was NOT listed in the menu. I asked if they had it, and out in came in about 5 minutes. That is odd, isn't it?
