"The restaurant was clean and bright and the staff very helpful, asking us if we were happy with our table and the meal and returning to keep an eye on us'. However our meal, usually so enjoyable, was served on almost cold plates and despite the heating over the carvery, a lot of it was almost cold as well. The vegetarian gravy had a skin on top as was like a leaden lump underneath.. The meat was delicious (I had pork and turkey) and plentiful, the sprouts, of which I had taken plenty as they looked fresh, were clearly frozen. I cannot blame a restaurant for using frozen vegetables but these were not at all to my taste over firm and tasteless. Don't worry, Toby, we shall return but, please, HOT PLATES with napkins to hold them are an essential to my eating pleasure."
