Yep. The oven baked stuff. Ovens are fabulous implements you can use to do very many things. Chips is not one of them. I'm usually no big fan of deep fried food, but when it comes to chips, effectively, nothing else works quite as well...

I fully understand that this is not an option at LHR, but that's why I am suggesting that instead of doing chips not very well, they focus on something which is achievable with the technical limitations of the place instead.

The steak is just terrible so I am sad to see it here for another month. At least the crunchy risotto is gone, though, so thanks for small miracles.

Had the pancakes twice last week. First time was nice, second time over cooked and inedible.

They are still there. Unfortunately, the breakfast menu doesn't seem to ever change since the one biggish change some time ago that so the replacement of the traditional egg benedict by a (welcome) choice of pulled ham benedict or California (avocado, no hollandaise - basically more like an avocado toast) benedict both on toasted sourdough.

The pancakes are average at best. Sometimes they put the little pot of mascarpone and sometimes not, sometimes the bacon is forgotten other times it's there. I suppose that's a form of change!

I go for them about once or twice a year for the sake of variety but am typically disappointed.
