I observed three general weaknesses in OZ food when I flew them last November:

1. Soup served tepid
2. Uninspired desserts
3. Small (though high quality) portion sizes

Number 1 is still an issue. The last two have improved greatly.

Food pics from my remaining three flights will be forthcoming later.
