N PDB offered. FA asked, "Beef, chicken, or pasta?" I asked whether there was any further description. He said he didn't have one. Later on I heard a different FA actually describe the meals to a different passenger, though not in anywhere near as much detail as quoted above. After takeoff, I fell asleep. The FA shook me to wake me up for the meal. ... Heaven forbid I my sleep got in the way of his trying to plop trays down as fast as possible prior to hiding in the galley. As we've come to expect, on the same tray were nuts, salad, the entree, bread, and dessert. I'll agree with the above that the Belgian chocolate was an improvement.

Prior to landing was teh same "cheeseburger" or couscous.

On the whole, this was not an impressive performance on the part of United.
