Scallops and crab cake were delicious. And being Scottish I'm pretty fussy about scallops - ask Filthy Monkey about my strop in Maui when they served scallops with truffle oil!!!!
The beef mignon was fantastic as well. I had a wee nibble and it was sensational. So tender.

Was in the CCR yesterday and although not there as frequently as some, I really felt the entire place could do with a revamp. The sofas all seemed to be worn and tattered with sagging cushions (I know as have just replaced mine at home after 7 years); the loos were so old and non 'first class' I felt like I was on an old British Rail train; the burger was totally inedible - it was like a round brick. I could barely cut it with my knife. Am not sure this place gives the best impression of BA. The staff were doing their best but am sure there is little they can do. It does seem like spending some money on First Class passengers would really make a difference in turning an unpleasant waiting room into a cool lounge.

I have no idea why people persist in ordering the burger after all the bad reviews it gets.
Just say no!

Perhaps they've been sent off to be re-upholstered?

That looks very nice and appertising , hope it tasted as good as it looks, glad to see the glass slightly hidden of LPGS, that always goes down well with a club sandwich, mark you still like the chicken club sandwich at SYD F^

It was pretty good, and nicely filling as well. The only minor point was that the bread was toasted and a bit dry so a little hard on the gums, but overall pretty good. I must admit it had a few glasses of lpgs that afternoon

It seems to me that I've the honour once again to introduce you to a new CCR menu, this time for the JFK lounge. Since last week, a new menu has been in place, here you go:
Will try to upload some nice meal pics later and give some feedback on the new offering...

How disappointing, I was looking forward to having the filet mignon again tomorrow evening
