haha. you have insider knowledge.
ha. not quite. Stu is right, I had
1 x salmon
1 x mozzarella
1 x lamb
1 x snapper
for a late lunch at 2 / 2.30pm ish
and
1 x salmon
1 x mozzarella
1 x lamb
1 x tomato salad
for an early dinner at 4.30/5pm.
Ann tried to talk me into desert afterwards - though she said she couldn't believe that I ate so much (she only saw me having the 2nd of those meals) - though she did acknowledge that a) the portions (certainly lamb) are small and b) that the gym is paying off and I am looking nicely buff and handsome*
(* my interpretation of her intended words).

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?

As I don't eat fish and don't like lamb, the August menu is a bit of a let-down. That being said, Mrs SC gave the risotto the thumbs-up.

What would your eating strategy be when flying in F on BA183 to JFK departing at 8:05 PM?
Would you have a proper meal in the CR and then try to have our dinner on board as late as possible?
Is a second meal/snack offered?

I'm flying out on BA93 to YYZ, departing at 13:15. Would be great to have a bite of proper lunch, not just breakfast, but fear it might be tight with the 12 noon start time for the main menu. Do you know if there is any flexibility on this, or what my best options might be for daytime food at that time?

There is flexibility on this, just ask, but in any case you have time. You need to be at the gate for 12:55, or perhaps a few minutes before, so you can leave CCR at 12:30 (or even 12:45 if you know what you are doing) quite sensibly. That flight is sometimes A10, the bus gate, which isn't great but does allow easy access from the Room. Even a C gate a 12:30 leave time gives you plenty of time to get to the gate, which in any case may only be indicated on the information screens at 12:15.
