Unfortunately, while I can't add the menu from my CDG-STL flight in Trans World One on 11/28/1998, I can contribute an interesting event that happened on that flight. It was my late wife's birthday and so, on boarding, I asked the FA's, on the QT, if they might be able to do something special to help celebrate my, now late, wife's birthday. After meal service was completed, they called us up to the galley and presented her with the flowers from the food trolley and a bottle of Mumm champagne. As I learned a little later, one of the FAs was Ellen Hagartay, step-mother Mariska Hagartay(SVU's Olivia Benson on NBC)! Six years later were were able to rendezvous not only with Ellen, but also Mariska, at the wedding of my cousin's daughter in Detroit. Turns out, she and Mariska were best friends, having roomed together in LA about 20 years earlier.
