I’ve had a look in the brochure, and it is extremely hard to tell from the pictures there. But I do wonder if the third type is actually china, perhaps with the golden lion emblem on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. And I think the staff are quite quick to remove them when the savoury courses are done. In fact that may mean the china ones, if not a figment of my imagination, no longer appear. The emblem would have made them too tempting to nick. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised they weren't earlier. I would imagine by now they are and for the first time the insides are feeling crowded. I also keep dropping wifi.

EM They still have those, in the Grills, at any rate. The mills, not the waiters, necessarily. My husband dislikes pepper, and they have fun frightening him with them - in the nicest possible way.
