The Royal Oak, Downton

we went to this pub on boxing day.
the place was very nice.lovely log fire,staff were very friendly.
i had panfry scallops and bacon with salad.scallops was amazing,but bacon was way too salty!! i don't know why?
My husband had lamb shank for main.
It came with melted plastic rap around the lam......
he told one of the staff,she seemed a bit awkward,but no apology and said
<Do you want me to take that back?>
My husband removed the plastic stuff, and gave it to her.
We waited manager to come over to say something, but no one showed up.
I was so dissapointed.I think it's unprofessional.
Beer was nice,I was enjoying the experience,but melted plastic spoiled it.
Did the chef microwave the lam with plastic cover???
