no PDB service, and despite explicitly asking for two minis of Buffalo Trace and a glass of ice, the FA brought me a double on the rocks after saying “I’ll serve your beverage, I don’t want you to have to do anything but enjoy it!”

< sigh >

on my way back from the lav after the FA cleared the entree service, she asked if I wanted another drink with dessert … I inquired as to what flavor ice cream to expect, so she opened the wrapper to find Salt & Straw vanilla with salted caramel ribbons

I again asked for two minis and a glass of ice, and explained that part of one was going to help the ice cream soften … the second FA (who was seated in the jump seat) was *quite* impressed
Your description of the risotto perfectly described my risotto the other day on BOS-SEA....is that not what it was originally meant to be? Needless to say I won't ever order that again.
