Great thanks!! Out of curiosity, is it delivered to the crew in the same way for the CW and F version and the only difference is that they plate it element by element in F, or is the dish description the same but the dish that the crew receives actually different despite the common description?

Out of curiosity, where do you search to find the full menu? I'm flying LHR-SFO CW on Dec 24, and I'd like to know the full menu on my flight as I'm allergic to certain food items.

Yeah I have selected chicken right now.
I had a bad experience on my last CX flight from HKG-ORD and i had to make-do with the pasta. It was one of the most horrible meals i have had in J in one of the best J-cabins in the industry.

In MMB, go to the panel for the specific flight. Click on "In-flight meals" and then the blue "Order in-flight meals" button. Click through, if necessary, to the list of main courses. Just above the list, on the right, there is a link for "View menu".
