It does get a touch repetitive - the ULH pattern seems to be two very different menus, month to month but each menu only changes 1-2 items before it returns in a months time.
I don’t like caviar, but have an unhealthy fixation with their chocolate fondant !!
Don’t think anyone has described EK F meals as bad. The initial comparisons made were with the DXB F lounge. Other airlines do seem to have better F catering, but that’s expected as none of them have the F capacity EK do, or the practical problems of a large F operation. The way EK have solved for them makes sense (to me at least), but there is better F catering out there. Personally, all of SQ, JL, QR, AF (when they bother) and EY have better F catering than EK. But EK F catering is not bad: just J catering with an additional main and caviar.
