I went to London this morning, on an HST from Nailsea. As soon as I got aboard, I scampered along to the buffet car and asked for a bacon roll. The genial customer host, however, persuaded me to try their toasted bacon sandwich instead - same price, but much better, apparently, than a bacon roll out of the microwave. Well, I was delighted with the result: a piping hot freshly toasted bacon sandwich, produced with a cheerful grin by the travelling chef. He even apologised for keeping me waiting - I wasn't aware I had been waiting! You couldn't get that from a trolley - so leave the buffets alone! ;) :D ;D Title: Re: I Hate FGW Blog On Potential Cardiff-London Buffet Removal Post by: John R on April 30, 2008, 18:48:25 I try to get my order in before the train fills up at Bristol, and yes, it's good. Try the full brekkie Chris, though the cutlery can be a bit flimsy.

Mental note - must get one of those into "Fletcher On Tour" ;D Title: Re: I Hate FGW Blog On Potential Cardiff-London Buffet Removal Post by: Chris from Nailsea on April 30, 2008, 22:25:18 Thanks, John - I must admit, I felt a bit guilty at the time, not asking for the traditional 'full English' - but I wasn't that hungry, to be honest! :-[
And Lee, I seem to remember images of your 'full English' breakfasts have somehow found their way into previous 'on tour' posts?? :D ;D Title: Re: I Hate FGW Blog On Potential Cardiff-London Buffet Removal Post by: Lee on April 30, 2008, 22:33:15 And Lee, I seem to remember images of your 'full English' breakfasts have somehow found their way into previous 'on tour' posts?? :D ;D Ah, but not this particular brekkie ;D This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
