It remains the butt of a joke, a restaurant experience that, in the way it seems to encapsulate the narrowness of small-town British life, has become a bleakly comic trope.

A revolutionary self-service meal, the carvery was always more about cutting staff costs than delivering pleasure. Subsequently, pubs across the country have energetically worked that bottom line with cheap meats and sloppy cooking. Think carvery and the image that comes to mind is one of overcooked joints left to dry out under hot lamps alongside soggy veg, cold, greasy roast potatoes and Yorkshires as lifeless as Egyptian papyrus.

And possibly a few years older. Which is all a bit sad. Or certainly a missed opportunity. Plus, there is nothing inherently flawed about such catering.
