Dining on Transport for Wales
Author: 86235

These are the menus on TfW's premier services between Holyhead / Manchester and Cardiff / Swansea. A more limited buffet car service, with some meal options, is provided at weekends. There are two lunch & dinner menus, they alternate week on week.

It is fun to see some passenger operators actually trying to have good customer service.
(This is a hint of what I think of current Amtrak USA.)

A Balti is an Anglo/Indian dish which originated in Birmingham

Our courgette is your zucchini

Maybe its a cultural thing, but finding a description for black pudding, I doubt that I could even try tasting the stuff.

Anyone here crave that item?

Other than that, the menu looks pretty damn good.

If you knew what is in your breakfast sausage you probably wouldn't eat that too.
Sometimes ignorance is bliss.

Point taken.

I've have reduced the amount of my sausage consumption, as well as my consumption of chicken nuggets, another questionable food.

Awww, parts is parts, and sooo tasty too. At least you can eat more than half of a 20 piece nowadays instead of chucking half of it after biting into 'em...
