East Coast’s New Menu

On my trip to Leeds on Saturday, I was able to look at East Coast‘s new menu.

I didn’t actually eat anything on the train, except for an EatNakd bar I took with me, as I had good breakfast before I left and knew I was going to be having a sensible lunch before the football.

However, the menu now has a couple of gluten-free items marked as such. One was a lamb shank, which I do like although last time I tried it, my hand wasn’t up to eating it.  It’s got better in the last few months, so I suspect, it might be better.

If I had wanted to have one on the way home, I wouldn’t have been able, as there was no chef on the train.  Sadly none of the snacky offerings were gluten free, although there was a chicken korma, which probably was gluten-free, but wasn’t marked as such.

But Leeds is only a two and a half hour journey and as there are restaurants at both ends, it is not the most important route for catering, as far as I’m concerned.
