The cod isn’t bad. It was slightly overlooked but the cauliflower purée and bhaji were very good

Nice to see something that looks low carb high fat (the cod) on a menu. I hope that trickles down to CW.

Does anyone know if the F burger featuring in June/July is pre-assembled or can it be made without the cheese and BBQ sauce?

I've had 2 flights this month, and the asparagus starter was the only item not available on both occasions, which was a shame because it sounds good.

the beef would have been really good if it wasn't so over cooked. The pasta dish was actually very very good.

and save space for that salted caramel sponge (or 2)

Yes, although I would have been intrigued by the floating island...

Has anybody tried the roasted cod from the F menu listed here? I’m torn between the cod and the tortellini.

Does pre-ordering actually change the ratios of what is loaded?

The last time I traveled in first on the 789 my partner and I ordered the same thing, but only one was loaded... (Crew had done their best and were fantastic, CS weren't so great)
