Do Band 2 flights offer any type of dessert/chocolate?

I don't know about LHR catering, but a Band2 LGW flight (not breakfast/brunch/afternoon tea) you get a Lily chocolate pot. Some have caramel, some double choc, depending on rotation of the menu. There's a lemon posset flying around as well

GVA-LHR - nice wee mezze salad.
That's two trips in a week and two different meals Here's hoping tomorrow's one is something different too!

Can I just confirm:
- LED [St Petersburg] to LHR is a Band 4 flight?
- LHR to ARN [Stockholm] departing at either 1400 or 1640 will mean the Afternoon Tea as the meal?
Thanks.

LHR-GVA yesterday. Distinctly average. That black stuff with suspicious white gloop on top of it was aubergine bits (I think). Chicken tasted ok even though not moist.
Nice crew though - 28 in CE and managed two bread runs, two tea/coffee runs, two drinks runs and even went round offering top ups. Yay!

With regards the flight to ARN: special meal is obviously the way forward to avoid the sandwiches. Anyone know if the Halal or Kosher meals are also sandwiches? (I can imagine the Kosher one has a surfeit of food if seeing other's is anything to go by).
