I haven't gotten a special meal in a long time as my upgrades keep clearing < 24 hrs from flight time.
The Asian Veg meals used to be quite good, but the breakfast wasn't good for westerners. Back when they would have a hot breakfast to Europe, the Asian Veg meal would be rice porrige. Not something that most westerners will eat. My guess is that since the current C offering for breakfast is pretty much fruit and bread, the AVML will be no different.
Anyone have thoughts on the IVML or AVML in F to/from China? Having done F and C to europe in the last couple weeks, I'm looking for some different entree choices (the F and C choices were pretty much identical).
