ATL-AMS, DL074, A330, Sept 2018
Had some Shrimp and grits earlier in Savannah & had my hopes up. The ones on DL074 where meh, rather tasteless. Choice not to go for Delta's 'almost there' options after that experience & decided to switch to plan B (my own Stroopwafels).
Last picture, bottom; out of curiousity pre-selected a hindu meal on MSP-ATL. Expected dosa, parotta, paratha, naan or something like that. It came with a bagel, lol
