Dirty cutlery in Concorde Room
Second time today - old food baked on to cutlery. Also happened last time I was here, two weeks ago. Maybe dishwasher problems!?

Maybe I should have done, but had better things to do than seek out a BA staff member.

I sent 3 forks and knives back at the Al Safea Lounge a couple of weeks back, and a fork at the Qantas First Lounge in SYD last week. Egg appears to be the biggest culprit.
I've lost count how many cutlery items I've asked to be swapped on AA aircraft.

It's not only a BA problem nor one limited to airlines.
Used cutlery left for a few hours before washing ends up with dried in food on it. It is difficult to remove without soaking the cutlery for a while. I notice it in Club Europe often. Unless the crew begin doing the washing up, it's difficult to avoid.
Alcowipes next time, or my own plastic cutlery.

I agree it not's acceptable but you could have told BA but didn't.

Strange isnt it. Like people who come on here to complain about other peoples' bags in lounges but don't ask that they be moved.

I was supervising / entertaining a small child - not going to leave her on her own to go and find a BA member of staff, I'm afraid.
