You need to go into MMB, then choose In-flight Meals and approx 30 days before your flight there will be an option there to pre-select your main course (not to be confused with choosing a special meal which will be there from when you book).

It's chicken or beef outbound Heathrow-Washington DC in mid-late January. Not a big surprise but I did wonder if seafood might be one option. VLML for me then.

Strange menu from my point of view as nothing jumps out as a must choose-however I would be happy to have any of the mains on offer.
Scallops as the starter.If I have the French Onion Soup the other travellers might not be best pleased with the effect!

Hi. The reason I am interested in this thread is that I usually order a special meal (gluten free) for medical reasons, but what you end up with is usually not great at all!!!!!
I have previously asked the crew to have a look at their "Chef's Chat" I assume they still use it? That tells them everything that people with food allergies can eat or not. Once I know I would then feel OK to go to MMB and prebook a main.
My question now is, is their anyone on this forum that has inside knowledge of the long haul Chef's Chat documents on an ongoing basis? I know there are some very helpful cabin crew members on here who seem to answer questions regularly. Any assistance appreciated.
