AY doesn't have so fancy food, but it usually has very tasty food. I definitely prefer that.
Maybe I worded myself badly. I'm by no means implying that AY's dishes would be bad; LH J experiences from the past few years are quite the contrary actually. They may lack in presentation occasionally, but almost always taste good. What I meant to say, that AY doesn't practice that somewhat silly approach of trying to allure customers with fancy sounding dishes (e.g. the Lobster Thermidor) rather they stick to basics and do it well. I mean after all, it's airplane food. No matter how good your dish is, it just won't compare to anything on the ground.
