I remember delicious Chelsea meals as well, one of my favorites was the short rib ravioli which was excellent as was the Lobster Bisque.
I also fondly remember the sushi on the IAH-NRT flights which was catered by a local Houston Japanese restaurant.
Continental had its faults, but quality in-flight catering was not one of them.
