I flew TWA Royal Ambassador a bit from the late 1980s until early 1990s. I know for a fact there was Caviar service, and it was Sevruga. (this is from memory, but I tend to remember those things). It was one of the main differentiations of Royal Ambassador and Ambassador Class. Now, I'll also say that I often was flying JFK-CDG (connecting to CAI); so perhaps, it did have something to do with this route.

I have all of the menus saved; so perhaps, if I get some time this weekend, I shall go through my archives and verify these facts (and scan and upload some of the menus).
