Bonus pic is of the hot smoked salmon with potato, horseradish & chive salad, not the Waldorf one.

The braised beef looked a bit like catering were playing "design a flag with food". The meat was tasty and tender, but the sauce was oversalted. The chocolate orange dessert is nice, like a whole packet of Jaffa Cakes has been distilled down into a concentrated pot.

The fact that a customer on the outbound sent back their hot smoked salmon because it wasn't what they expected, and that on the way back the crew were at pains to tell everyone that "the hot smoked salmon is a cold salad" suggests that the menu writer really needed to have put a hyphen between "hot" and "smoked".

And the ham hock tasted awfully of chicken. "Teething problems with our new caterers", said the suitably apologetic cabin crew.

The cheeses had been cut slightly longer than the diameter of the ramekin, so had been wedged into place and had to be levered out
