Asda Cafe, Hall Rd, Norwich

The Location: Asda Cafe, Hall Rd, Norwich
The Visit: Monday 21st August, afternoon
Cake: Cinnamon roll
Tea: Yorkshire
The Cake: Prepackaged gives a cheap impression, but this wasn't at all bad. The big disappointment with it, was the icing that stuck to the packaging on opening.
The Tea: Good tea, stayed hot for a long time.
The Café: Almost an afterthought, the cafe upstairs in Asda has to compete with Costa and Greggs, both next door. Cheap plastic tables and furniture, and disposable tableware, are not the best look, but do the job, especially to bring the prices down (they succeed). Quality of comestibles is good overall, though there's not a huge choice of cakes.
Verdict: 7/10. 

John Lewis Cafe, Norwich

The Location: John Lewis Cafe, Norwich (upstairs)
The Visit: Sunday 25th June, afternoon
Cake: Victoria sponge with rose petals
Tea: Twinings Full English
The Cake: The cake itself was very nice, moist and spongy with a good filling. However the rose petals did nothing for it, completely flavourless just adding a bit on unwanted crunch.
The Tea: Very good, strong tea. Nice big pot, got 3 cups out of this one.
The Café: Visiting with my son after buying his new Cubs uniform instore, before it closed for the Sunday afternoon. I used my "free hot drink and cake" coupon, whilst Matt had a chocolate and hazelnut wafer with fruit juice. 
Verdict: 7/10. Would have been 8.5 without the rose petals.

Starbucks, Colney Fields Shopping Park, London Colney

The Location: Starbucks, Colney Fields Shopping Park, London Colney
The Visit: Wednesday 14th June, afternoon
Cake: Lemon and poppyseed muffin
Tea: Starbucks Tazo tea
The Cake: I admit, I'm a fan of this muffin. Light, soft and zingy, with a blob of lemon curd hidden inside.
The Tea: Pretty normal own brand tea, in the Twinings Everyday category. Average
The Café: Pit stop on the road, this Starbucks is easily accessible from the M25 upstairs in a Sainsburys. I'd had a sandwich as a late lunch, this counted as pudding, and was a very successful one.
Verdict: 7/10

The Flying Chariot (Wetherspoons), Heathrow Terminal 2

The Location: The Flying Chariot (Wetherspoons), Heathrow Terminal 2
The Visit: Tuesday, 13th June, late evening (came for pudding)
Cake: Victoria sponge
Tea: Twinings Everyday. Single mug with milk from an urn
The Cake: I had requested the carrot cake (that happens to be gluten free) but they had sold out, only having the Victoria sponge left. I was pleasantly surprised. It had a nice dryness but with the right amount of filling and icing to match it. Very good.
The Tea: Not so bad as the usual Everyday tea. About average, nothing special.
The Café: Landside in Heathrow Terminal 2, so accessible to everyone. Some tables had a view over the southern runway (see photo) but the slats prevent really good views. 
Verdict: 7.5/10

Sainsburys Cafe, Longwater, Norwich

The Location: Sainsburys Cafe, Longwater, Norwich
The Visit: Saturday 3rd June, afternoon
Cake: Strawberry tart
Tea: Sainsburys own brand Red Label
The Cake: Quite tasty, though the pastry was a little dry. The creme patissiere filling was nicer. The few strawberries made some bits fruitless, others fruit-heavy
The Tea: Pretty normal, middle of the road pot of tea. Nice big pot, got 2 1/2 cups out of it.
The Café: Visiting with my son as a treat for going shopping (he had a bag of popcorn), we took a seat overlooking the store. Overall pretty average.
Verdict: 6/10

Kulula flight, Johannesburg Lanseria - Durban

The Location: On board a Kulula flight from Lanseria (Johannesburg's second airport) to Durban
The Visit: Saturday 29th April, late afternoon
Cake: A double chocolate muffin
Tea: Five Roses with milk
The Cake: It seems that Kulula have learnt well with regards muffins on board aircraft which tend to dry out too much - this was smothered in plenty of icing which helped enormously. Very tasty.
The Tea: Five Roses is South Africa's premium brand, it was ok but nothing special.
The Café: Buy on board an aircraft. Not much choice of location! Some good views out of the window to start with before it got dark.
Verdict: 6.5/10

British Airways Terraces Lounge South, Heathrow Terminal 5

The Location: British Airways Terraces Lounge South, Heathrow Airport Terminal 5, London
The Visit: Thursday 27th April, breakfast (very early, 5.30am!)
Cake: A pain au chocolat (hiding behind the bacon roll)
Tea: Twinings English Breakfast
The Cake: A pretty standard mass produced pastry. Quite tasty but a little dry, not buttery enough.
The Tea: Pretty standard Twinings.
The Café: The largest of the BA lounges, very impersonal. Help yourself buffet.
Verdict: 6/10
