I was looking forward to the Wellington on my forthcoming F flight 🤦🏽‍♂️

Thanks for posting CWS it looks like quite a reasonable refresh of the offering although have seen the lamb and the chicken curry before but both were good.

Flew LHR-LAX and SEA-LHR in F last week and food was pretty unremarkable except for the Mushroom Flan which was one of the best dishes I had on a plane in a long time. Highly recommended!

BA243 11 Mar

Might anyone have the menus for the 243 to MEX? We fly on the 11th. Called You First and they said they’d send pdfs but alas nothing received. Thanks in advance.

I don't know for sure, but I suspect it will be 90% plus like the USA/Canada menu shown above.

Any update on the day flights ex US and 'breakfast' flights from the UK?

I've just received the MEX menu actually; it's the same as the US menu's shared above for starters & mains, but different options for the light snacks & meal (in response to gazzis question above).

you’re not missing much, it was quite an ill conceived dish start to finish. The pastry by nature of being chilled was soft and soggy and not at all what one would expect from a Wellington.

I had the turbot on my last flight and it wasn’t so much seared as baked to shoe leather - I would recommend avoiding it!

BA281 March

Not great photos but Lamb was superb! The curry was great too although the chicken was slightly overcooked. I had that instead of a light meal option. Also....No Brandy!

XO Cognac was back on my recent LAX to LHR - I was very happy with that - all I'd like now is some decent chocolates and not Lindor!

US Lindt is poo. I believe that European made Lindt is still good.
