We leave a couple of overs before the close, having seen England make a hash of playing for a draw and head to King's Cross Railway Station for a train home. When we get there, there is a bit of time to wait before the next fast train, so we have dinner in the station. Now eating in railway stations and airports and the like are notoriously poor value (at least in the UK) where being a captive market vendors can jack up their prices without a traveller being able to do much about it, so it was with some trepidation that we entered Giraffe Stop on the first floor of the King's Cross concourse. I have to admit I was presently surprised. I had a Giraffe Burger (a cheese and bacon burger), chips and a can of Red Stripe lager for £10.50, which is not bad pricing considering the location. The food, though it came suspiciously quickly, was quite edible too and I'd definitely consider eating here again over a bog standard fast food option.
