So I've been to the Concorde Room at LHR a fair number of times, including the CCR section of the arrivals lounge. I have enjoyed the food at lunch and dinner, the drinks, I like the spa, the look of the lounge, the balcony, etc. However, what is wrong with the eggs? Last week I had the scrambled eggs with smoked salmon at the CCR arrivals room. The smoked salmon was OK (not high-quality, which is disappointing being at a first class lounge in London, but alright) but the color of the eggs was pale yellow (closer to white than yellow) with a touch of light gray and tasted disgusting. Then, a few days later, at the CCR I asked for a plain omelette. It came out like a rubber disc (and tasted gross to boot). It seems as if there is a problem with the raw materials (eggs) and the cooking (rubber). I remember this issue with the scrambled eggs from prior visits over the last few years (I didn't bother to post). For what it's worth, I love BA, including the crews on board, the JFK CCR, the F seat etc. I don't remember the last time that I've had eggs in London (outside of CCR) so I don't know whether the scrambled eggs at the CCR are consistent with what's served at restaurants/hotels in London/England--I can't imagine that being the case... Thoughts?

A bit of a fakey-cal/ital dish, but the quality of the ingredients is very good and the tastes come together as well as you'd expect them to. Lemon oil and lemon peel fit perfectly and the peas taste of what they should and really work with it all. While more vegetables would be nice, I'll bet the dish would work a treat as a larger starter if you coupled it with the heirloom tomatoes.
As for the lamb, well, the trend of selling poorer cuts of meat in a high end context is widespread these days, just look at the ubiquitous presence of pork belly (to many no more than gristle with some meat around it, or a slab of rendered streaky bacon if you will) at 20+ quid a pop in nicey nicey London restaurants. While this stuff is not for everyone, for sure, it's a trend, not necessarily a cheapening. Nothing cheap about this stuff at Modern Pantry, for one.

It was several weeks ago, if not months, if I recall correctly.
And that was for a lot less serious offence than stealing the Holy Cup.
