Its not getting any better. Next three months menus are unveiled:

Quintious nailed it in the First Class meal thread- too much divisive ingredients. Rhubarb-thyme compote on French toast? Really?

0.0000000001% of people will pay for this "Enhanced menu". Totally worthless if they want to sell the F cabin

I was rather excited until the end.
Mushrooms have appeared yet again

Miso Ginger Beef is "mentioned", doesn't mean is it real or will appear on any flights. Here is how you should read just one of the other dishes: Cold platter with (half ounce, two small bites if you want to stretch it out) Brie cheese, (one half of a) hardboiled egg (AS will keep that as the standard serving), (two more small bites to match the Brie) grilled flatbread, (2 just so they can keep the "S" at the end of carrotS) baby carrots, (2 miniature baby radishes 'cuz they are so cute) breakfast radishes, (three slices cuz' they are cheaper in season, up from two now) sliced cucumber, (no idea what these are so wait & see) stuffed peppadew peppers, (1/2 oz. served in a tall, square remakin so you cannot get to the hummus) lemon beet hummus and (2 broken pieces of one half of a) walnuts.
Might I politely suggest that you start considering that all AS meals are merely aspirational, and hopefully, it will clear up your ever increasingly severe case of IBS (Irritable Bob Syndrome).

Bob W, you need to understand the difference between actual food and aspirational food.

This crap is still better than the LUVO garbage Delta used to serve up and down the left coast, unless they are still pulling it off. (my last left coast DL flight we only got the snack basket on the Compass E175 from SNA to SEA..)
I used to sneak into the lounge and ste, err borrow some ranch dressing or something to help make the Luvo food a bit more 'alive' - despite the fact it looked like someone had just harvested it from some field the day before.

Gogo is not cooperating with images. But the new chicken bulgogi was solid. Especially the rice. It does contain some heat.
