Shakshuka eggs
LHR - SOF just now. Tasted fine but not exactly a looker. Sat next to a fellow B2Ber.

Chicken brochette
SOF - LHR just now. No menu, chicken on corn purée (I think?)
Just a word on the crew on this return sector, they were extremely loveable (the lady in charge reminded me strongly of Alice from the Vicar of Dibley RIP) so it pains me to say this but they managed to be busy, up and about but there was somehow no pace to the service even though there were three CC serving 8 rows. My finished tray was in front of me for at least an hour. I’m not sure whether they are stymied by BAs inefficient processes but on other airlines it just seems like the distribution of food and drink is a lot simpler and CC can go at it with a bit more oomph.
But once again, they were very kind and charming and even making some slightly comedic slips such as first describing the choice as chicken korma, oh no it’s a vegetable korma actually, or roast chicken on brochette
I mean why not just give out the menus and save yourself the pain.EDIT: the beetroot broccoli yoghurt thing is a very misguided combo, they probably think they are channeling Yotam but with zero seasoning it was almost completely devoid of taste.

Menu on BA1341 24/09/22 JER-LHR (return catered at LGW)
Salmon Niçoise salad option (LGW-catered)
Club Europe catering aboard BA1341 JER-LHR (catering loaded at LGW). Again, very tasty (albeit I am not a fan of feta, but that’s personal preference). Pro-active crew, even coming round with a second round of drinks. Not bad on a flight time of 36 minutes!

Yesterday's LHR-SOF breakfast. No bread offered. I guess the jam goes on ham. Yum!

Had the cold cut on LHR BDS this morning, it was OK. I'd had a bit of bacon in the lounge so didn't feel like another fry up. My partner had the poached eggs, both were still runny (sorry no pics from that one).
8 rows of CE, I saw at least 3 large bottles of NF get emptied. Service was really proactive with 3 attendants in CE for most of the flight and proactive top ups the whole way.

This dish is very poor IME. Dry chunks of bland chicken breast, v underwhelming corn moussline and random other veg.

Had the chicken, which was good. The starter was bland, though.
