BA 891 SOF-LHR
11 December
*Very* shellfish-heavy menu. Seemed a bit unwise due to allergies (okay, maybe that's just me) and potential polarisation (though not quite at marmite levels).
Absolutely lovely crew! CSM was very banterful (banterous?) and proactive with service - how BA should be!
Beef was tasty - sauce very nice. Mash a bit boring, but veg alright. Bread warmed just enough. Pudding far too sweet, though that's probably just my taste. Not a massive fan of brie and find the biscuits almost soggy, but very much appreciate the quince paste. All around, very good flight and thankful to be back in London given the weekend's weather drama.
Would post pictures but pretty standard fare - let me know if you'd like to have a look.
Menu as follows:
Starter
Seared king prawns on goma wakame salad
Main
Grilled breast of chicken with pappardelle pasta and lobster cream sauce
or
Slow-braised beef cheek with sweetcorn mash and thyme jus
Dessert
Crunchy hazelnut cheesecake with mango and passion-fruit jelly
and
Somerset brie with quince jelly and oat cakes
