I find western food on TG off at times, but I find Asian food on EU airlines equally odd - at times.
In large airports like LHR, CDG or FRA, any airline can work to get excellent food in F.
Unfortunately AF is not a reference in terms of food, even in F out of CDG, but that has mostly to do with how much they are willing to spend. However, their starter, main dish and dessert in F is better than on TG (even AF J can be better than TG F). I have taken many airlines in F out of CDG and found that the food on SQ, EK, EY, NH can be superb (MH is quite nice, CX is average). But TG is really poor.
I find BA F food out of LHR excellent too, as well as from many outstations.
