Is that lime in the yellow mesh? That is normally what comes with a fish dish..
like this:

(this is a lemon I know, but that is the way they do citrus for fish is the point)

I say this because, if that is lime, it is possible they were indeed out of normal 'drink' quarters of lime, and the one FA went above and beyond for you by quatering one intended for the meal for your drink.

That looks like a pretty decent meal there, nice amount of veggies with the rice.

No.
Ms. D gave me lime and it was green.
She gave me both lemon (as the picture) for meal and lime (green) for beverage.
In addition, the purser served the drink in the beginning and he gave me lime as well.
Only FA C said "we don't have lime"
Both the purser and FA D said that they didn't know why FA C said that.
Please check the first photo that I posted. There was a lemon for meal and lime for my coke.
FA D brought me the lime when I said to her that FA C said we don't have lime.

If this was your return flight, I don't blame you for flying sick. I'm sure you did what you could to prevent the spread of germs, if you were even still contagious.

I think you're 100% justified for wanting to let CO know about this, not for compensation purposes but to make sure they train their FAs better. Many on this board would do the same if it was a Res Agent or GA that lied, so we need to hold FAs to the same standard.

When we landed, I asked his name in front of him.
FA C said " I don't give my name to anyone."
I said " I still can get your name from people work with CO, and it will be very ugly if I get your name from other people."
FA C said with attitude " If you can get it, go ahead."
So I found out his name and I will write to CO to let them know about this.
NOW...Please help me to find out what did I eat..... thank you....
The FA should be ashamed of himself. If you make a decision, right or wrong, stand behind it and give your name. Not giving your name practically admits guilt. Not a wise move, considering how easy it is for CO to find the person's name.

Overall I think you have a right to be upset (with both the drink and food service). I'm sure being sick has made you more upset. Definitely contact WE CARE (either by phone or through the website), because this should not be the standard of service for that route.

Your screed, sir, is one of the most reprehensible rebukes I have read in all my years defending truth, justice and the Flyertalk way!

Dear OP: Please do not think one xenophobe's jingoistic remarks are representative of the sensibilities of all nor even most of the people here. We in the CO forum are open-minded and reasonable folks. We realize others' opinions are as valid as ours. Feel free to speak your mind without fear of being ostracized (nor made to feel you're a malcontent) by anyone! Please participate in the CO forum. ^ We need more viewpoints, not less (as a few seem to want).

I have to say...I don't like to be lied in any class - first / business / economy.
If you like FAs lie to you, be my guest.
SFO-SSA網友, 你喜歡被騙是你家的事.

Listen, what is first class about if not entitlement?

It's not fun being lied to, but you are certainly entitled to expect more in FC than in economy...

I check again. Indeed, it's green and it's lime.
So they have lime and Ms. D did serve lime for both of my beverage and meal.

Correct they had lime but doesn't mean they were pre catered properly and she went above the call, in the end you got what you wanted, so it ended well.

Next week I am flying CoEx, whom I am not sure has lime, but I just made a vow to myself and now FT. I am going to have lime in EVERY drink next week, be it water, soda, juice or something more.

I am taking a bottle of Truelime with me onboard just to be sure.
