On BA and QF I almost always see a selection of three or four mains. One of these will include a fish dish. On CX I recently flew SFO-HKG, HKG-MEL, MEL-HKG, and HKG-LHR and there was not a single fish course offered on any of these sectors. On all of these flights there was a choice of three mains one of which was Asian, another was always beef and the final choice was pasta.
All of these airlines usually offer a selection of "snacks" between the main meal and a pre-landing service. BA and QF offer a much better selection than CX. On the recent HKG-LHR sector the snacks were a choice of noodles.
The food on CX hasn't been great for quite a while now. The food on QF has recently improved.
