You nailed it. Going out to PEK was pretty good with a few options I hadn't seen before. The prosciutto wrapped scallops were a nice change. Everything was what I would expect from D1 based on a dozen or so recent flights. Coming back....lol. Yeah it was bad. The one item that everybody seemed to want, Korean BBQ they only had one of and everything else was blah at best. It was all dried out and nasty. I had the chicken because I wanted to try something other than the beef tenderloin that I usually get and it was borderline edible. The omelette in the morning was a far cry from the one I had going from JFK to LAX. I was almost wondering of they catered the flight in SEA and it sat on the plane for 20 hours, but then I saw some dragon fruit in the mix.
