Finally got a response after the 2nd email I had to send. 2,500 miles as credit for no meal or snack for 4 hour flight. No PDB you get nothing (despite the fact the FA's sat around for 10 minutes after boarding was completed before the door was shut).
Is there a "compensation" thread here on the AA forums like over on the DL (and I think UA) forums? I couldn't find one. I know UA was giving out $75-100 vouchers for no meals when they cancelled the meal service for flights under 900 miles recently and I thought I read DL is somewhere around 12,500 miles. 2,500 seems paltry, but again, this is AA and I recall a View From The Wing blog where AA has said that meal service isn't a paid for service for First, so worth $0.00

Chicken Parmesan DFW to PDX
Excited to try this one out, but curiosity killed the cat:
Chicken and breading was way too mushy. No knife needed to cut the chicken. Pasta had good taste, but a fat bomb. Antipasto salad is okay, and probably the best part of the dish.
They need to figure out the texture of this dish with the airplane oven.
Will maybe try couple more times to see if it gets better.

I have been checking the menu options for our 21 Feb flight and so far there are only 2 options (other than the ethnic choice) the Frittata and Salmon - neither of which sounds appealing to us. We also flew FC on AA in Nov and remember on day 30 the choices were just the ethnic ones - then a few days later more options popped up. So I'm hoping that will happen again in a few days. Is that normal for AA???

I usually do Asian veg and hope for Indian but at least I know it will be Veg. I still cant figure out for sure if Hindu on AA is Veg or not b/c it could have lamb no? That wouldnt work for me.

From the AA website -
"Hindu* - Prepared according to Hindu dietary practices and may include dairy, curries and spicy flavors"
So it does not specify the meal as vegetarian/vegan/or other
