I don't understunderst it, in theory, it should be relatively similar from all stations.

In ye olde days (Pre Kirby), catering be it good or be it bad, was fairly standard. Something changed, yes I am sure budgets are tight, but that to my mind is not the entire answer either.

A spec should be a spec, it should not be wildly different depending on where it was prepared.

I just had the beef out of EWR and it was vastly different bordering on something Asian, not something French.

The dish looked and tasted something like a Beef Rendang.

I don't understand it.
