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.

I'm finding there are no choices on LHR-ATH which is unusual. I don't mind what I eat but I do like to make a choice when possible. I can't remember any occasion on LHR-ATH since pre-choosing was introduced when it wasn't available and the service is now back to normal schedule so a bit strange.

For my morning business flight Athens to Dusseldorf next week I am presented with a choice between a) "salty muffin" and what I believe is a scrambled eggs with greens and b) the well known and posted dish of pancakes with strawberries and fruit. Since I hate the taste of those greens (especially for breakfast) I have to pick the "safe" 2nd option.

I have NEVER been able to pre-select a meal, with approx. 12 business class flights since this became an option. Admittedly, all but two of them were upgrades, so I wonder if this service is only open to paid tickets. I have an upgraded ticket to LHR in December and there is no choice (other than special meals) and a paid trip to LIS in a couple of weeks, also with no option - not even for the special meal - that section is totally missing from the 'manage booking' page! My past trips have been LHR (x3), HAM, DUB, FCO, AMS, ARN (x2), MAD, LIS(x2).

This is irrelevant. Our flight last month included tickets upgraded with vouchers and a ticket booked with miles, all tickets had the meal options available. Next week we have one fully paid ticket and one upgraded with miles and both show the aforementioned options. Don't know if the options become available close to the date of the flights though, I usually check it out around 1-2 weeks out.

ATH-BRU A3622 Business at 16:10 on 22 September. The crew was very chatty and fun on this flight. Refills were proactive and the food was amazing. Went with the chicken option with hummus and barbecue sauce as it was intriguing… and I was not disappointed. Loved it as did all the people in my row.
The dessert was a nice change from the baklava and tahini tart. It was fluffy and not that heavy. All in all excellent meal and service.

It's time they bring back the amazing F&B they used to have.
Wine list was amazing and loved the informations provided about the wine makers.
Loved the food too (octopus for starter was amazing). My last A3 C flights were : poor wine selection (same as in economy before), cheap green salad, below average hot meal (not tasty vs what it used to be), pathetic desserts (they used to be stunning).
Only positive : Mastika is still here and expresso coffee too.
Service is also "cheap", close from Y class.

I booked 1-2 tickets in 2022 (my typical Athens-Dusseldorf route) and there are not meal pre-select options available, so, as I suspected, proximity to the flight date has certainly something to do on at least some routes with availability of that option (I am pretty confident it will become available later on).
