And I didn't have any porridge or boiled mutton. In fact, I don't recall noticing either one of those on a menu.

The food there was okay. Not exciting, but not all that bad.

I returned several times in that decade, and my last trip there was in 1980. I'd love to return, no matter how good or bad the food is.
