I chose the chorizo sandwich, and what I got was literally a half of a small sandwich. I tried to take a picture, but with the poor lighting, it didn't come out, but it was done in three bites. It came with two small pastries and 5 small pieces of fruit. I was so hungry after my tiny half sandwich that I got up and grabbed a packet of crisps from the club kitchen.
The sandwich itself was quite tasty, but really needed to be a full portion. Not sure if there was an issue with the catering, so they were splitting sandwiches in half, or if this is the intended portion. They also weren't catered with any cutlery, so the crew scared up some wooden sporks and paper napkins.
Full breakfast and pancakes?! Jealous.
Reminds me of my flrst CW flight where I had visions of a real breakfast after having the WT breakfast sandwiches-ugh. Imagine my surprise when the menu came around and it was another breakfast sandwich!! They did give us scones as well but man that was depressing.
