Agree--the tuna was flavourless and the fennel was tough.
I had this--small portion of beef, not much taste, overcooked.
Tasty dessert.
I might have kept the wine list--will check.

The biscuit removal is supposed to be today or tomorrow IIRC.
Note Q300 and S340 flights will still have them (pre-packed inside the cup), at least for now.
