near where it used to be, on the extended concourse between plat 7 and 8)
but I think that's it as far as hot food goes.

Wait, isn't KC ... world famous and all that... the departure point for
the wilds of Scotland ... etc?

Which brings to mind the last movie remake of "The Thritynine Steps".
In which, IIRC, the train for Scotland departs from St Pancras instead
of the more accurate Kings Cross.


It's St Pancras in the book.
