Currently mid-trip, here are the meals I've had thus far:

ATL-SJU, F
DL429
Dep: 7:10pm
Arr: 10:47pm

Barbecue Chicken with Corn and Potatoes (other choice was cheese and spinach manicotti)
Salad with Feta, Cranberries, Pecans, and Greek Vinaigrette
Tiramisu Cake


Pass of the new snack basket with microscopic Frito bags..., but also piroulines ^


SJU-JFK, F
DL348
Dep: 12:55am
Arr: 5:01am

This flight is odd time-to-meal wise. You leave just before 1am and generally land well before the scheduled 5:01am arrival. Breakfast is served prior to arrival, while the snack basket makes its way around the cabin a couple of times after departure. Lots of folks seem to just sleep through the meal service.

Caramelized Onion and Cheese Omelet with Potatoes, Tomato, and Sausage Links (other choice was a cold cereal with yogurt)
Fruit Bowl
I guess SJU doesn't cater bagels, as it was a choice of a warm chocolate chip muffin or croissant. I went with the former and was very pleased.



JFK-SEA ended up in Economy Comfort and despite getting a snack bag (somewhat new feature of TCON Y+) with a bagel and some other goodies, I fell asleep just after takeoff and didn't wake up until approach.

SEA-KIX, J
DL183
Dep: 11:45am
Arr: 2:25pm

This flight features a Michael Chiarello-designed menu, which proved to be delicious. Probably the best DL J meal I've ever had.

Warm Mixed Nuts and Beverage (Ginger Ale)


Japanese Selection:

Sakizuke
Baby Scallops and Beans

Zensai
Shrimp and Pork Kakuni

Kobachi
Smoked Salmon with Black Miso Sauce

Aemono
Cucumber with Salmon Roe

Shusai
Filet of Beef with Cabbage and Asparagus served with steamed rice, pickles, and miso soup


Western Selection:

First Course
Roasted Prosciutto-Wrapped Asparagus with watercress and creamy goat cheese dressing
Tomato Basil Soup (Not created by Michael Chiarello)


Garlic Parmesan Dipping Sauce for Bread
