So both starters contain blue cheese and there's no other option except soup? That seems like a crazy thing to do. I can't be the only person to detest blue cheese.

Totally agree. The starter selection is poor and the mains are clearly pretty cheap in terms of ingredient costs.

You might politely describe BA as slightly obsessed with serving a healthy amount of peasant food in the CCR and First because it's cheap (not wishing to re-ignite the whole peasant-gate thing!).

What on earth has happened to cooked appetisers? It all seems to just be dressed up portions of canapés, and cold meats and fish these days.

This is not to say that some of the points are not valid, particularly in regards to the pretty poor appetizer lineup this month. Cuts as an appetizer is really not good, just plain lazy. Not expecting roast bone marrow and parsley salad (to stick to the "basic food" theme), but BA can surely do better than this.

The charcuterie plate was tasty, the udon noodles was weird (not in a good way) and the black currant dome was very very choclatey!

no i don't do a photo guide for the breakfast menu. tbh i think it is because the items on the breakfast menu are relatively well known and there is much more scope to mix and match. i may look at doing something in the future tho if i get the time. the breakfast menu itself is in post 1 tho - i think it is a few years since it last changed.
