Haven't had a Vegetarian meal for a long time, but I recall CX's oriental is usuall Gluten and some type of noodles (non egg)
Make sure you are not on the Vegan meal ( i heard it is terrible)

CX told me that there is this vegetarian pasta dish on that flight, should I take that instead?

CX seems to go to some trouble to ensure that there is always a non-strict vegetarian meal amongst the regular options (some other airlines are doing this now too). This will be vegetarian but not kosher or halal and includes dairy and egg but not meat. That includes snacks (though some have components like chicken soup stock which probably is stretching it a bit too much).

Be careful if the only choice offered is an "Asian Vegetarian" meal...
Because if you fly out of most CX stations, you'll get a Chinese styled vegetarian meal.
But if you order that out of LHR, you might end up with an INDIAN vegetarian meal!
