Is there really no Sauternes available in the Concorde Room First Class-only lounge?

There were some excellent wines available today, and there was a quaffable Port but sadly no Sauternes today.

LOT have a Sauternes in their Warsaw lounge. It's always there as part of their standard offering.

Yeah, I cook wild boar fairly regularly and it would have been nice to have it maybe sort of like the lamb dish that comes up every now and then, "pulled pork" style. Not too Italian, but still a proper main. As tortellini and with a sweet sauce, hhmmm ....

I shall reserve judgement and try it next week. I don't fret too much over this stuff, certainly the gnocchi are not anything I'd recognize as italian either, but I have enjoyed the dish, and there's lots to like, certainly try, in the new menu.

Don’t you mean, premium?

Anyway, Eastern European at heart

strictly speaking, gnocchi isn’t pasta though, is it ?

You will see it listed as Primo (Piatto), so it is a surrogate of pasta. Orbitmic's point still holds, it would not be considered a main course in Italy.

Going to be in the CCR with my family in a month or so. My 2 young kids don't have the most adventurous palates, so just wondering if the kitchen is generally able to whip up something like a simple bowl of pasta with tomato sauce, or eggs (but at lunchtime instead of breakfast) with chips?

Reports suggest that they will try to accommodate especially if they have the basic ingredients available.

i asked for some fruit for my infant daughter and was given a huge bowl of mixed berries.

Talking of 'accommodating', a slightly bizarre thing is that they are apparently not allowed to serve you a main course portion of the scallops, only multiple plates. Not a big deal but a bit of a bureaucratic shame and waste of cleaning process!

indeed, a last attempt at three scallops ended up with three portions of black pudding and bacon as well, oh well..
