It's restocked in YVR.

I do the YYZ-YVR route a lot in J and generally find the options OK in both directions. I usually have the Salmon and it isn't great but pretty decent I figure for a meal in the sky-ovens.

I'd like to see more innovation in airline catering. I loved the breadcrumb wrapped beef chunk dish they had last year in domestic J!

Air NZ has fantastic catering on the trans-tasman route... something like "New Zealand Lamb with horopito salt, carrot puree and snow peas"

Can we get some more creative options?

I would be willing to pay an extra $10-20 and pre-order specific higher quality J meals - like SQ with Book the Cook (except paying extra because I'm sure AC doesn't spend as much on meals as SQ)
