LHR-SFO: service was with an experienced crew but was incredibly lacking. they commented they had some issues with catering, which i hope so based on the lamb pictured below! aside from service, crew never appeared in cabins for top ups or during flight. at one point when i went back to ask for a drink mid-flight, the fa said i should press my call button for a top up. great but the two times i pressed the button i waited 10mins and gave up and went to the galley. dont mind a stretch of the legs but also kind of ridiculous a call button was never answered--at their insistence!

anyhow:

canapes- good
starter beed carpaccio- good but heavy with the truffles
salad- it is literally just lettuce, 1/3 of which was frozen/slimy
lamb main- how sad is this? it was supposed to be with feta and pomegranate jus. it tasted fine despite how sad it looks
dessert- crepes suzette- very good
mid-flight cheese- always good

pre landing starter of tomato with mozzarella- very nice
spinach pasta (instead of the poor burger)- was very lovely and happy they actually catered it this time instead of my prior experience when they cater the CE mushroom pasta
dessert- the usual choc mousse but with heaps of strawberries, just fantastic

so, a mixed bag and solidly in the lower-middle of experiences overall.
