Dinner: Three cheese manicotti

Three cheese manicotti with a salad.
I had to be in New Orleans a couple days before the Super Bowl. So my flight back was the backend of one of those extra Super Bowl flights to bring everyone TO the big game. That meant the flight back was a ghost town. 24 people on board that 737-900ER. My upgrade cleared at the window and I chose the manicotti. Other options were the short rib again, or a chicken curry dish. There were a couple of special pre-order options too that I forget now. This was ... fine. I'd had a really good lasagna in F a few months back and was hoping this would be good like that. It was not. Edible, but not inspiring. I believe this option is also being served in Premium Select transatlantic right now and I hope that version is better. Or at least bigger.
IME, Italian type pasta dishes ex-MSY are never great.

I find that catering ex-MSY is just okay which for a food city like MSY is always a bit odd.
