Eating out

The second postscript to reference 1 notwithstanding, I thought to take a bacon sandwich at West Ewell's Luna Café, on the home leg of today's Jubilee Way anti-clockwise. I have been eyeing the place up for what seems like weeks, but the time never seemed quite right until this morning, when we have a relatively light lunch (bacon and egg flan, known to foreigners as Quiche Lorraine, last noticed at reference 3) on the menu. 


So tea and bacon sandwich on white, not toasted, it was. Turned up with a good whack of decent bacon between a couple of slices of fresh factory white, pretty much up to the standard of the café I use in Whitecross Street, in London. With search and reference 4 suggesting that today's sandwich is the first such for something over five months.

Tea brewed with a tea bag in the form of a regular tetrahedron. From where I associated to reading, many years ago now, about some work done on same by a senior scientist at Imperial College. Apparently he had proved that this particular shape had various important advantages, both for manufacturer and consumer.

All served by a pleasant young lady, properly equipped with mask and gloves. And the whole place looked very clean. I had my bit of the front to myself, but they had a reasonable number of customers scattered about.

Reference 2: https://en-gb.facebook.com/Lunacafeewell/. An improper reference. But disapproving or not, a lot of small businesses do use it as a cheap alternative to a website.
