This happens on the DL10/DL11 flights to/from MSP & LHR. Much more food than the standard BA offering, and the water bottle for each passenger is a nice touch.
DL also offers 3 main course options and one of those is a very nice salad with steak/chicken - quite a reasonable serving it is too!
It always runs out even though numerous flight attendants state each month they increase the proportion of main course salads!
