How did it taste? I was just at the Admirals lounge in ORD on Sunday and they had the typical Taco meat and roasted cauliflower.

I appreciate AA adding more hot meal options. Or in this case, just one.

The meatballs were available at the MCO club a couple of weeks back. They provided those and some potato rolls to make mini meatball subs.

Agreed, and things like this (meatballs and pasta) would seem to be fairly easy to provide in terms of logistics - cheap, not much prep work, and you can let it sit in the crock pot for hours.

Orlando had the meatless meatballs last month. They were actually pretty good

I've seen meatball sliders for a while, but this was my first time seeing it with pasta.

DFW A had the meatballs and pasta last Thursday, along with a number of other meal parts arranged in a random order, a Jamaican / Asian fusion soup, and an unlabeled salad base that tasted like kale. I think. Or maybe very crisp lettuce.

You could not really tell what was supposed to go with what, but I assembled something that was really a pretty good immediate lunch. Alas, my poor spouse and her food allergies was stuck with the soup. Which did not look good to me. But I digress.

Any idea who you write to about menus? The faux Italian could have easily been made gluten-free and be eaten by additional guests.

The meatballs and penne were perfectly fine. There’s no need whatsoever to make it gluten free to appeal to obscure food desires. People with such limitations need to fend for themselves. The soup was perfect perfectly sufficient.

Baklava roll

Here's one I haven't seen before, the chocolate baklava roll at the CLT C AC under the usual brownies and rice krispie treats. Quite delicious.

Sweet and sour pepper beef

A new one at L lounge at ORD today. Sweet and Sour Pepper beef and quinoa
not bad. Wish they changed the menu on board as often these days
Edit: I noticed after I posted that the accompaniment was actually brown rice and quinoa mixed. I didn't add it to mine but it look like something decent to serve with/under the beef.

The awful "breakfast scramble" needs to go. Pretty sure AA did it just to cut down on egg costs.
