Lunch

Served shortly after takeoff


TO START

Cannellini bean and garlic soup with kale and bacon

*Spiced beef shank with dragon fruit-marinated Chinese yam DUDDELL'S*

Very bland dish, did not like it at all.


MAINS

Shredded chicken noodle soup, Shanghainese pak choy and Huadiao wine DUDDELL'S


Risotto of pearl barley with leek, mushroom and thyme mascarpone, parmigiano reggiano


Boneless pork ribs with strawberry sauce kai lan, egg fried rice, accompanied by glehnia root, jade bamboo, carrot and pork bone soup


* Minced beef patty with water chestnut and aged mandarin peel on jasmine rice clay pot, Chinese preserved sausage, pumpkin*


Out of all dishes I tasted with CX out of all flights this was the most successful one, it was very tasty and the crispy rice added a nice texture to complement the dish.


Steamed halibut with chorizo sauce, Basque piperade, fresh herbs, accompanied by leaf salad, balsamic vinaigrette LOUISE

CHEESE

Tomme, Farmer Cheese and Bresse Bleu, crackers, red grapes, Maggie Beer's spiced pear paste


DESSERT

Seasonal fresh fruit

*Strawberry yoghurt pudding DUDDELL'S*

*Vanilla syrup cake with Marsala poached figs*


Both very basic and slightly disappointing, especially the vanilla syrup cake (on the bigger plate) tasted like…regular muffin? Supposedly “marsala poached” figs tasted like normal figs to me.


Selection of ice cream

Pralines

Served prior to landing


TO START

Seasonal fresh fruit

MAINS

Roasted king oyster mushroom poke bowl chilli and soy, fresh cucumber, pickled ginger, steamed seaweed rice
