The chicken dish itself was pretty mediocre; rice actually was pretty good, chicken wasn’t dry but was absolutely unseasoned. I was hoping there would’ve been a starter too, but alas. I’m overall glad I picked AS just to try them, but I’m pretty sure I’m gonna stick to AA for transcons

Interesting that they served ice cream as the dessert--normally there is a plated dessert on the tray with the meal.....lots of flights in F on AS and I've never had ice cream on AS so this is a welcome change in my book....now if I could get them to put a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream on top of a warm chocolate chip cookie, I would consider that a win.
