I usually choose the cold plate as breakfast on long haul flights (in large part because I find cured meats and cheese less objectionable than an egg dish if an airline forces me to have breakfast 90 minutes prior to landing at 5:30pm local HKG time … not that AF is the only culprit in this). IMO, the long haul cold plate is usually rather nice and would be 100 times better than the weirdo breakfast served on EU short haul. Of course it likely costs 3 times as much, so likely not feasible. It’s a little schizophrenic that AF spends next to nothing on short haul food, but FAs are super proactive about topping off champagne glasses. I’d happily forego my third glass of champagne on an 80 min flight if that allowed AF to spend an extra €3 on food.
