New First crockery and catering - March? Or April?

Hello

I seem to remember a discussion with CIHY on here about the new F catering, crockery etc and the view was it was starting on 1 April? Now that’s less than a month away, does anyone know any more? I’m flying on 4 April LHR-IAD and hoping...

Seems that the menu was slightly different so we may get an indication of which flights this will be operating on from the pre-order menu in MMB.

Fingers crossed for a speedy roll out, have a SFO F flight mid April.

Oooh, I have only my second ever F flight, to BOS, in the first week of April, returning five days later. This would be nice !

I should be able to order my meal in MMB from Friday this week.

Here's the F menu for BA69 to PHL on 1 April. Anything in this that gives a clue whether it's the new catering?

That appears to be a typical First TATL menu save there is a fifth choice main option missing, the cold main course salad ... and there is an extra starter.

The extra starter seems quite a difference.

Wasn't there a rumour of the bistro menu making a sort of comeback too?

I have the same menu for LHR-IAD on 4 April.
