"Evening Snack"

Last evening's presentation was reminiscent of a recent post by another FT member and seemed to be a cut-back in the level of service I've usually encountered on AS.

The lead FA handed out a fork and knife wrapped in a small paper napkin, then passed a plate that held a stone-cold bit of chicken (?pigeon?) breast with grill marks that served the sole purpose of pretending the piece of fowl had actually once been placed on a grill. Also on the plate was a small bit of mesclun and a little tub of salad dressing.

That's it. No warm food. No tray. No salt & pepper. Not even a Seattle Chocolate to soften the blow and give a bit of dignity to the dining experience.

For an F meal, that one deserves an F. At least they could warm up the poultry a bit and hand out chocolate. Lots of chocolate.
