Somehow neither of us is willing to risk the Steak! And the Chicken will undoubtedly be a chicken breast with 'sauce of the day' poured over it as usual!

Curry just doesn't seem like a F dish and fish on a plane is usually not a good idea. I guess that leaves the beef. Not impressed. Where does one see the rest of the menu? MMB only seems to show me the mains.

Thank you. I'm so used to AA and having them only show the mains when making a choice. Looks like I have the same starters/ desserts as the previous poster. Crab and cheese it is then, assuming that BA have sufficient meal loading. Dinner on the first leg out of SAN will have to be a surprise.
