The prawns look good, but where was the kachumber...did they liquidise it into that green sauce?!
Oh goodness, don't get me started on their addiction to pasta for vegetarians. It is like they only bought one vegetarian cook in 1972.
Shrimp and grits?! Somebody please try this item
You might be an American person, is this a common combination?

A packaged, ultra-processed brownie from a pathetic PP lounge would beat the sorry-excuse-for-a-sweet-item that was offered for afternoon tea.
Perhaps the kachumber salad was liquefied; culinary innovation above the clouds.
Shrimp and grits are a quintessentially Southern affair. I sampled the best rendition in Charleston, SC. Not an uncommon inflight menu option for this route. However, I wouldn't entrust flawless execution of that dish to this particular catering team.
Pasta naysayers: tough luck for vegans/vegetarians in the sky.
