On this flight the ice cream was served on the tray with the salad/roll/main dish. As I said, service was very late and it was about 2 1/2 hours after takeoff when food arrived. I moved the ice cream aside for my photo, then "plated" it myself for that shot. Normally I would expect a large napkin and a spoon to arrive with the container.
