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.

Breakfast is rarely good on the majority of airlines. I have yet to find a carrier that offers a consistent breakfast product.

This weekend I flew AMS-ATH in business. Wonderful service, and wonderful new menu. Perhaps coincidence with the updated menu but the meal was very very tasty.
Menu:
The new wines can be found here in detail:
Apla 2017 (Oenops)
Preknadi 2017 (Diamandakos)
Goumenissa 2007 (Tatsis)
Eratines 2016 (Pieria Eratini)
First and mains, I chose the chicken. Note that this dish was not served with any carbs (potatoes/pasta), but rather with creamy eggplant. A lot of flavor, great dish in my opinion.
The salad now comes with two dressings, additional to the standard oil/vinegar mix. A vinegar-based one and a spinach-based one, almost like a pesto. Also the salad now features a bunch of shrimp rather than the 1-3 pieces it did before. I really enjoyed this salad, even though it is kinda basic. Very tasty for sure!
Unfortunately I did forget to take a pic of the dessert. It was 2 crispy rolls filled with galaktoboureko on the inside. Very nice!
On a side note: Last week I did four segments in AZ business class. Oh boy, we should really appreciate the A3 crews and food...because that was a tough transition. The service on AZ was mediocre to bad on all flights, no choice for food or wine, and the food itself was quite bad as well. Inedible salads, bland mains (Cold cheese/ham toast for breakfast, really AZ?) and overly basic dessert (one-bite apple pie cookie).

No picture here, as I didn't eat anything on a VIE-ATH flight in C. Why? Because somebody at A3 decided that on a flight that left at 10:45 am (11:45 Greek time), they should be serving breakfast and not lunch : I was looking forward to trying one of their "new" menus and there was no way I would have a second breakfast after the (great) one I had in Vienna at my friends' house. I, thus, had two (or was it three?) glasses of one of their white wines "accompanied" by a small bag of salties

Hi Paul, Love your YT Channel. Are you planning to update your star alliance elite status here? IIRC you’re getting into a lot of lounges now as a result. Congrats!

Wow, looks great! My only tiny complaint is that they changed the way they do the dessert. I loved how it was the past: 3 little desserts which were -most of the time- really, really tasty.
