YEA, still see the airplane salt shakers!!!! Does seem skimpy on the beef. in the past, it was slightly larger with 3-4 slices of beef.

I had this exact same meal on a PMVX aircraft last July although we didn't get the warm nuts and my route was SEA-LAX which you would think would be catered with the same or more food than the shorter SEA-SFO route....and yeah, I agree...it's missing one of my favorite parts...the starch....I think Alaska needs to discover these cool things they have been serving on AA for years....pretzel rolls

Upcoming EWR-PDX flight and I'm offered the choice of:
Braised Top Blade Beef - Tender braised beef sirloin accompanied by seared Yukon Gold potatoes, pearl onions, roasted baby carrots, and sauteed wild mushrooms. Served with a thyme and shallot demi-glace.
Asiago Gnocchi - Tender gnocchi stuffed with asiago cheese and sauteed crisp. Served with grilled kabocha pumpkin and radicchio, sauteed wild mushrooms, and a truffle butter sauce.
Has anyone had either of these and if so, how was it?
