So this is from a trip I took in 2010, but people wanted to see it and the kind moderator Prospero was kind enough to help me out with the pictures. Enjoy:

Private dining room / partial shot of the menu. Food was ok.

As I recall it was a squab (or other bird) with mushroom and greens. Texture was ok.

Old F, clearly not one of the biggest routes although since it is DC I think new F should have been one of the first to get the upgrade. Just my opinion.

This was when I woke up from my drunken sleep of drinking Johnny Walker Blue Label and other liquor. Fruit and apple juice = hungover at 40,000 feet.

NO one has anything to say about this report? I know it's small but at least there are a decent amount of photos. Come on now.

I'm reading it! Though I think the first time I read it, it was shortly after your 2nd post and I didn't want to break the streak of consecutive TR posts.
Keep 'em coming! I'm interested in the actual WC parts of the trip. I have half a mind to go to Brazil 2014.
