Ideally a SENIORS meal offer would better the clients. I also think when the steak sandwich comes out, please don't put a serviette underneath. I cut the sandwich up & ended up eating the serviette too! The meals are great, I just think smaller options for older people. I know a lot of clubs do (with pokies) & a lot don't do, but you would definitely get more people dining. Thank you
