Please post all images of A3's food and beverage offerings in both Economy and Business Class, both domestic and international routes.
A posting hint:
The maximum image resolution that FT can cope with is 800 x 600. Posting images beyond this limit pushes them beyond the page margins, making the visual appearance of the thread disjointed and very difficult for everyone to read.
There are on-line tools for most image storage sites which provide alternative links for reduced sized images - please use these prior to posting to reduce work in having to request users edit their posts. Thanks.

A3-852 ATH-TXL 30.09.16 economy class They were a bit slow with the drinks so I took the photo without them. The girl next to me was giving me a strange look as I was sitting looking at the food!

I had exactly the same menu on AMS-ATH yesterday, however I chose the veal option. Your mains was the "Chicken legs" item?
There was also a seasonal Cyclades option with Lobster and Shrimp - but since I am not a huge fan of either I decided to skip that this time.
My mains, sorry for the bad quality - sun was coming in through the window of the lady one row in front :
Desert was also identical to yours.

I find A3 service to be inconsistent with regards to how they serve the main and the salad. Most of the times I get the salad and main together - this time it was rather an exception

Both this flight and the previous one (VIE-HER) I managed to get seat 1A with nobody in 1B. No neighbour, hot food, wine....what's not to like!?

I just had exactly this on an early morning (03:30) TLL-ATH although there was also a small bowl of fruit slices. A bit disappointing, to be honest, but I guess I'm just spoiled by my business class upgrades (that flight is Y only). At least I had the whole of 1DEF to stretch out and sleep on!

Flew ATH-DUS today in business.
The new monthly Cyclades special for October: Honey glazed chicken (legs) from Andros, Naxos Potatoes, cheese and chickpeas from Sifnos.
The chicken was (understandably) very sweet, which worked well with the semi-sweet white wine that they paired it with: Karamolegos Santorini (2015)
The rest of the flight was, while still good, not of the high standard that we are used to: They only had one kind of white wine, they ran out of food choices after row 1, no cappuccino, and the same crew member seemed to keep forgetting my coffee order as she kept asking if I wanted coffee while I had already ordered with her.
No biggie though, the food was still great - and so was the mastiha liquer!

Flew Ams-Ath today in business. The special was the lobster, however I chose the chicken. The other normal option was veal filet on skewers with oven roasted potatoes and asparagus.
Smoked turkey and couscous salad.
Grilled Chicken on rice, with pine nuts and walnut cream. If you like pine nuts you will love this dish. Very tasty and pine-y!
Desert sweets. I did notice that for the second flight in a row the coffee machine was broken, they only served filter and instant coffee.

Coffee only the filter one, but they gave me a triple Mastiha to compensate

Don't get me wrong - am am not complaining. These flights are about half the price as the competition (KLM on my route) and offer a much better product. And with the upgrade coupons these are just outrageous - the best value you will find in Europe on any carrier.
In your case I can understand a little disappointment re desert. Did the menu mention the normal sweets, or did it specifically mention a cheese platter or something like that? I am wondering if this may have been an accidental catering issue..
