Breakfast:

Scrambled eggs and (cold) ham. Distinct lack of carbohydrates available this morning, so I whipped up some eggs.

Lunch:

Covent Garden Co. chicken soup, with a ham baguette.

Dinner:

Home-made burgers (made simply with minced beef and a pinch of salt) and potato wedges (McCain, not home-made).

Breakfast:

Bread, ham, cheese, boiled egg, blah blah blah.

Lunch:

Salad including sweetcorn, tomatoes, mozzarella, butter beans, &c.

Dinner:

Stuck in Berlin airport, with my flight delayed by two hours (yes, British Airways, and Terminal 5-bound), so had a crappy sandwich which, I think, contained some cheese, along with some token salad to bulk it out. On the plane, a horrible coronation chicken/cheese & chutney combination. I really don’t know why they bother.

Breakfast:

The usual hotel stuff.

Lunch:

A mixed bag – potato salad, sweetcorn, tomato, butter beans, kidney beans, cucumber, along with some chicken nugget type things, cheese-filled chili peppers, and breaded mozzarella.

Dinner:

Italian place called Malatesta (which, I was told by my linguist colleague, means ‘headache’). Lovely restaurant, and food was ok. The Italian in our party reckoned it was pretty close to the real deal. I had fried squid to start with, followed by a main of linguine con vongole, which was well-seasoned and gave a nice hint of the sea. My review on Qype

Breakfast:

Bread, meat, cheese, yoghurt, boiled egg.

I like staying in continental hotels. The breakfast is substantial enough to be satisfying, yet not artery clogging. Yes, I could try to avoid the cooked breakfasts, but I find it very difficult to do so.

Lunch:

Chicken meat balls, cardamom sauce, rice, from the work canteen. Surprisingly tasty, despite its appearance.

Dinner:

We went for a Thai meal at a place called Kori & Fay. My review on Qype gives more details but I had some of the mixed appetisers and a main of a green curry.

Breakfast:

Scrambled egg on toast.

Lunch:

Meatloaf and mashed potato (bought by P from M&S). I do make home-made versions of these (which are tastier) but with a flight to catch, needs must.

Airplane:

Tuna and mayo / ham, cheese & pickle half-sandwiches, and a breakaway chocolate bar thing.

Dinner:

Arrived late (c’mon, I was flying from Terminal 5 – what do you expect?) so had to order some bar food from the limited menu. The hotel, in an effort to be all fusion-y, had a weird menu so I ended up with a salmon and wasabi bagel. Unfortunately, the wasabi had been spread like it was cream cheese, so every bite was a tearful experience, much to the amusement of my colleagues. If I hadn’t been so hungry, I’d have sent it back.
