Worst: Kitchener Barracks, Chatham. The smell of weeks-old cooking oil pervaded every part of the building and the food was truly atrocious. They must have made a conscious effort to churn out scoff that bad.[/quote]

Agreed but must come close to Southwood Camp

Best 3 armd div sig regt St Sebastian Germany.

Worst Central Engineer Park Stratford upon Avon.

Can I change my worst? I'd forgotten how bad it was at Worthy Down...


Sandybag, which barracks? As I remember 28 Amph being quite rated.

Best, Cookhouses on any Op Tour when you first arrive in theatre.

Worst, Same cookhouses when your own Chef's have taken over, why does it seem the food alway's gets worse when your own chef's take over.
