I have the following menu for LHR-SEA in a few days:
Im assuming the beef will be cooked until it resembles a poorly made shoe and whomever thought a BBQ Hamburger (also likely cooked until destruction) was an appropriate meal for a long haul FC menu should no longer have any decision making powers. So that leaves me the cod and the torallini - reading the posts above seems the cod was not bad, has anyone had the tortellini? Any picture of either would also be apppreciated.

Thanks for the pics. Very helpful. The family order is 2 x steaks, a burger and the fish.
Looking forward to our YVR trip in a couple of weeks. The flight is long enough to fully appreciate the F experience whilst not being too long that boredom sets in.

Surely the Poached baby pear should be a dessert rather than a starter.

I’m tempted to try the chicken burger to avoid another hockey puck steak.

As do we on BA177 (LHR-JFK) in 3 weeks-ish. Nothing really jumps out at me, was looking forward to to requesting a medium-rare steak, but will probably go for the sole.
