I originally asked for the ricotta tortellini with wild mushrooms but was told they ran out - was it because I was there on the 15th which is right before it is removed from the menu? Anyway, I decided to try what seems to be the infamous burger.

is the burger back - am due in CCR and flounge in the coming days, though, most times the burger is somewhat inedible (eitehr cold or fatty), I always order it (in addition) just to see if it has improved.
Also is the beef Galloway still there ? Thanks!

Beef short ribs. Had them again today. Mmmm.
That sort of thing (very slow cooked meat) works well as it doesn't suffer from hanging around for a while under the heat-lights at the buffet.

when we were there 2 weeks ago, although the burger hadnt made its comeback, they had a replacement chicken burger. It was 'okay' - they made it with mini-fillets that I do not care for.
Oh well, lets hope for an upgrade to F in a few weeks time when we fly next, so that I can try (again) the burger! Maybe, just maybe, it'll come out hot !
ADDED - okay I am so used to going to the CCR now (been very lucky with opups), that I nearly forgot they serve these delicious items in the Flounge too!

Booked. I'm a weak person
If I get served chicken instead of beef, or my noodles are cold, or champagne not cold. This will result in a massive rant
