On average, I do 50 AC breakfast J flights per year. I like the breakfast offerings, including the "polarizing" omelette dish.

I'd love a good strong latte / coffee options (cold brew drinks).

I know AC serves lattes onboard but I've had the bad luck of being unable to get one prior to landing due to turbulence (no hot drink service periods)

Carriers that serve poached eggs actually have the caterer poach them on the ground and immersed in a container of cold water. Once onboard and ready for serving, the poached eggs are scooped up and placed into a container of hot water for a short period of time to "heat" them up while preserving the texture of the yolk.

Wow. That sounds challenging. Which carriers offer this? And how did you learn this?

Now that you've mentioned it, I wouldn't mind a breakfast wrap (Monty's or whatever) for J breakfast (and not have to do a special request for Y wraps if available). But I still like the omelette dish.

Way, way back in the day (probably 2009) there was one time they had this peach souffle for breakfast on a YYZ-YVR morning flight.

It was fantastic. Saw it once...and never again.

I actually like the oatmeal and yogurt- plain is better than 'pre-sweetened'- my sweet spot: warm milk to add to the oatmeal vs cold...
re traditional hot breakfast- the pancakes on Long Haul seem to 'therm up' pretty well- just delete the sausage and that could be a nice alternative to the egg/oatmeal.

My wish is to understand what the red stuff and white stuff is. Even reading the menu description, I remain confused and unbelieving.

Love the Omelet!

When they used to serve it on Rapidair YOW-YYZ, i would connect through YYZ just so I could get the Omelet X 2

This! Also creamy bircher muesli, served with thin slices of fresh apple on top.
