Aside from the potentially faux grill marks, how were the pancakes?

Same for me, but hopefully with the return of the 2x 787 between SFO and YYZ, this "galley space" issue won't be an issue anymore. It's time for AC to ditch CleanCare Kits that < 50% passengers use (if they hand me one, I take out the wipes and sanitizer, but the "Mask" that resembles a piece of cheap kleenex and the excessively large and useless information sheet and plastic bag serve no purpose). The CleanCare kits should be occupying a small space in the coat closet, not an area of the galley.

I don't mind the T2 concessions but I'll admit I rarely eat or buy food for the plane there (apart for using my PP for drinks at Lark Creek) because I'm usually only flying to PSP on AS. I'm usually grabbing a coffee (or mimosa) for AM flights, and gins in the AS lounge or Lark Creek after 11 (because I'm sensible!).

But I might need to procure a back-up snack for my AC flight next week should the PLH actually be PoohLH

I found they had too much syrup and were too sweet for my tastebuds. Much prefer the omellete.

Flying ATL-YYZ in biz today on a lunch flight and the menu options don’t look great. Can we get a smoked meat sandwich from the buy on board menu instead? I don’t mind paying if it’s decent.

Last time I flew one of those (pre-pandemic) the flight was significantly delayed and when we got on we were served nothing. The FA said because of the delay the food might have gone bad and so they could not serve them (???). Maybe they ate them since the delay was like 6 hours and they were hungry.
I had this happen to me recently on a Jazz flight... I complained about it to customer relations and they gave a 20% discount code. In addition to the 30 USD airport food vouchers that were given out onboard (I complained because the delay and reason for the ice packs melting was 99% AC's fault (as far as I could tell).

And it looks like a real croissant and not one of those plastic-wrapped plastic abominations of a croissant. (or maybe it was in plastic wrap before the pic was taken?)
Crapssant?

Did exactly this when I was travelling with my 5 year old, he wanted the pizza instead of the chicken korma, and they were happy to oblige, no cost. Plus he also got the rest of the tray, in particular the brownie. YQR-YYZ:


Chicken korma, spinach curry, kale and quinoa salad, brownie

On AC119 right now.
Salmon starter solid as always.

The cod was pretty good. Although the "broccoli" was kind of mush.

The smoked meat sandwich is nasty

agreed. The onboard sandwich is nothing like a proper deli sandwich. No texture or grain to the meat. Overprocessed & slippery slice. Reminded me of the cheapest processed deli ham sold in stores.

I thought it was pretty good actually, one of my favourites! Could have used a bit more sauce, I would have scooped it up with the bread. Would pick it again if the opportunity comes up.
