Trying to answer my own question, based upon menu's and comments above...
It appears that the menus are the same, at least for the menus posted, plus what we just found for our flight.
Another vote for braised lamb shank. They should be able to keep that nice and tender...(?)
But after several hours in CCR, we'll probably be stuffed.
But... what is "chocolate beetroot"? as a dessert!?
(I thought that was the dreaded vegetable served at summer camp - without any chocolate.)

As others have posted here, we’ve both decided we will go for the lamb-not a lover of lamb but it’s the best option.

We are on BA2239 LGW to LIM in J, but we are not able to pre-order mains due " to a technical problem, although we can order on board " according to MMB, although special meals can be chosen.
Does anyone have any experience of this and know whether its likely to be rectified prior to departure (28/03/18) ?
Also the long haul return leg is with IB from UIO via MAD to LHR ,all the info is in MMB but I'm not able to order a vegetarian meal for my daughter, should I be able to ?
Thanks

Nothing at all and have tried on different browsers/mobile (as BA IT really is that bad, sometimes). Don't think it's with the new service as an LGW route is mentioned and mine (IAD) isn't one of the newest rollouts.

Indeed! Do any experts know whether this has happened before and whether the issue will resolved to enable us to order food in advance? Thank you
