In general, I avoid sausages on Asian/ME carriers as they really are mystery meat (and certainly nothing like English or Italian sausages).

The meals were 'horrendous" but:
  • his husband didn't mind his first meal
  • they both liked the second snack, but it was too small
  • the dessert was too sweet (!)
  • the second leg main meal was good but we got a bizarre rant about side salads
The seats were good, the service was great on the 2nd leg, and the lounges were good.

All-in-all not too bad - especially for Y. Yet there's a dramatic thumbnail and the OP commenting on every comment to drive-up engagement. Typical these days, really...
I agree with the second post, but struggling to reconcile these two positions 😂
