Oh I DO so recommend their Iberian ham (cut from the bone as you wait) in a sandwich of fresh bread and butter with a dab of mustard.
The best lunch ever with a cup of Earl Grey tea.

No Pete - they have a number/ticket system on many counters and I took my ticket, expecting long waits due to the crowds massing around, but found I was called almost immediately, again and again.
Also walking around the store, especially when it's packed, you notice the language being spoken - predominantly Italian yesterday.

Have they thought of charging to get in?

Where you on a stakeout of the tills?

Packed out - mainly with foreigners (a lot of Italians) but very few buyers despite there being a sale on.
Mainly "lookers" - amazed at the luxury (and the prices - even after sale cuts).
