I don't think I've ever had mac and cheese with chicken in it...
Sad if there is no more lobster mac and cheese. Unequivocally the best entree I've had on a domestic F flight. Would be nice if it showed up on p.s. once in a while...don't think I have ever seen it there.

Lie Flat 752
Hawaiian music playing on boarding.
Crew were very friendly throughout the flight and available regularly in the cabin.
I would like someone to validate for me, whether or not we were mis-catered though.
Lunch options - Lobster Mac & Cheese (it lives on!) or Tandoori Chicken.
Served on a tray with a small Arugula salad with golden raisins and balsamic vinaigrette dressing.
Chocolate Chip cookie for dessert.
This is a flight of over 7 hours. The way I read United.com we should have had three entree choices and sorbet for dessert. I tried tweeting United via Direct Message and had this insane back and forth where they insisted I was wrong and I was expecting Polaris International Business service which I wasn't - and they kept referring me to united.com's page on in flight meal service.
Should we have had three entrees and sorbet?

Also, the Chicken Mac & Cheese is pretty tasty as well. I had it on MIA-EWR a few days ago, the FA said there are three variants, Lobster, Chicken and Pork/Short Rib the latter two being new additions the in 2017.
I do prefer the Lobster Mac, but the Chicken with the macaroni tastes pretty good!

Boeing 737-900
Meal: Dinner
Choice of beef or shrimp. I chose shrimp--it was good, spicy and tasty.
Dessert was vanilla ice cream with whipped cream & chocolate syrup (I just took it plain).

FLL-IAD Dinner Flight
It seems two new napkins have been introduced recently - Paris and New York. Sydney, Hawaii, London and SFO were the ones in circulation since the introduction of Polaris.
Also, my first time in the new F seat on the A320.

What version of mac and cheese was that? Kinda looked like +pork.
Also, how was the "F" seat? (In terms of comfort, not taste )

In terms of the F seats, they see wider, and have storage place around the electric socket areas between the two seats. A ipad holder the tray table is a nice touch. Overall the quality of finish was good.
I did not like the way the seat cushion moving forward instead of seat back moving backward, but I guess it takes awhile to get used to it.
