[QUOTE=Betteronacamel;34604681]Here's what we got for the meals to/from IAD.

Outbound 31/8 (so may have changed if menus are rotated monthly)

All one tray service as per the rest of the cabin. As noted above, lots of wrapping as everything is double wrapped in plastic. With your permission, crew will unwrap the main in the galley so that you don't have to wrestle with hot tin foil etc.

Main meal catered by Hermolis:

Hummus and melba toasts, Avocado salad, Bone-in Lamb shank with potatoes and Mediterranean veg, fruit salad, some sort of chocolate pudding. Three small bread rolls.
On balance, a better meal overall than the standard J offering. The main was good. The pudding was inedible and the rest of the salads served in the diddy little CE dishes.

Second meal - hot beef (? Pastrami) sandwich, fruit salad, bag of crisps. Again an arguable win.

Return ex IAD catered by Borenstein:

The outbound from LHR is broadly what I had to Vancouver a couple of months ago. For my money its hard to beat Hermolis ex LHR.....tends to be fresh/chilled from their kitchens in Wembley. In bound is uniformly dreadful - frozen and when de-frosted pretty poor from Borenstein or Stogel
