Well, it's interesting because the beef meal on the AC 4 in June was significantly better (post 1610). Meat wasn't overcooked as much and those vegetables were bright and crisp.

This particular AC 3 and 4 not only had overcooked beef on both flights, but served on cold plates. I mentioned it to the crew and the answer I got was "we don't have ovens to heat the plates".

So, to recap, hot main course served on ice cold plates. Sure FWP, but really?
Also, how is it the galley staff on other AC flights with plated meals manage to serve on warmed plates?

I still refuse to place warm breads or croissants or muffins on the cold plates that come with the meals.

(I suppose how the question is answered is almost as interesting as why the issue exists)
