They still do - but it is no longer a restaurant, as of 12/06 it is Shalom AirCatering. Not bad, but nothing special.

I like LH catering from Sohar's in Franfkfurt. If you are HON Circle they will order fresh F-Class kosher meals into the lounge even if you fly economy - earlier this week I had in the lounge Geffilte Fish, Corned beef, salad, Veak Cutlet, Pistachio Mousse etc etc, all before a 1 hour flight, then yesterday they gave me Salmon and Asparagus, Chicken in Honey with Couscous, Fruit salad. Breakfast is normally a selection of cold cuts, egg salad, croissant, ommelette etc. Not bad at all. You can see pictures of all the meals on

www.sohars-restaurant.de

Over the past few months I've had KSML from
Tel Aviv - OK in C class and Y
Rusticelli (Lugano) - Quite good!
Stogel (Antwerp) - Poor (also available FOC in the LH First Class Lounge in MUC)
Bernholz (Vienna) - Quite good
Lanxner (Brussels) - Great for long-life food
Omnitzky (Vancouver) - OK for economy, but same meals in C class so not good enough
Lewis (Sydney) - Poor
Hermolis - Good
Sohar - Good
Shalom - Quite good in C, OK in Y - but one of the few airlines who will even give a kosher sandwhich on a one-hour hop in Y in Europe!

and probably some others I can't remember...
