Apparently they're responding to all the interest... just seen on the newsstand:

(PS - yes, this is a gag)

Delta doing whatever it takes to include all passengers. Cant wait for my next skyclub visit.:D^

Excellent, if MH ever joins SkyTeam, they should offer fresh cut Durian at SC. Cuts down the club foot traffic.

Somebody needs to tell Bubba this is the solution to his complaint of SC overcrowding.:D

and Balut instead of regular ol' boring boiled eggs...

Not saag paneer, to start with.

What they had previously, when DL first enhanced the offerings. Grilled chicken, meatballs, BBQ, pimento cheese, etc.

I'd quibble with this -- my guess is you're referring to restaurant Indian food, which is generally made through the following process:

1. Take traditional recipe (for saag paneer, for example, or maybe for something without paneer that's healthier)
2. Add less spice
3. Dump tons of cream and ghee

Additionally, most restaurants in the US tend to only serve North Indian food. Southern food is quite different, and while ghee makes its way into many dishes, the food is generally quite light.

I'm Indian-American; the food I grew up eating, and now cook for myself, is quite different from the super-fatty restaurant variants. DIY sometime! You'd be surprised at how unimportant ghee actually is to much of the cuisine.

+100^
Restaurant Indian food in US is nowhere close to authentic Indian food. Which in itself is a rarity in restaurants in India (at least in big metro cities).

To taste the authentic food get yourself invited to an Indian home and tell the hosts to cook everyday dishes and not bother about non-Indian palate. You will be surprised how little ghee is used in cooking.

Even after all said and done ghee itself is not unhealthy - in fact it is one of the best source of saturated fats which are making a name for themselves these days.

IMO French use more butter then Indians use ghee!

This just goes to show how lack of familiarity with things can lead to misperceptions. The hairy looking red fruit in the picture above, which I guess is supposed to turn people off, is rambutan, related to lychee fruit, which is delicious. The outer rind is easily peeled off, revealing a luscious white fruit. It is far too expensive to ever be found in a Sky Club, as it is native to Southeast Asia. Nevertheless, it does not have a strong or unusual smell or taste like some fruit only appreciated by a few. It really is delicious. Try them sometime.

A very good point. Or that being somewhat familiar with something can lead to a belief that one is an expert.

Fair point. I was indeed referring to restaurant/catering Indian food and shouldn't have extended that to the cuisine writ large. Thank you for the illumination.

Ok, it's time for DL to just turn over SkyClub catering to McDonalds and be done with it.

Damn! KNEW I should've researched the rambutan before using it in a spoof which was intended to be mildly amusing.

Say what you will about crickets & scorpions, I'm not eating one.

Unless perhaps, it's served up by Grace Potter.

For breakfast items that would be ok.

Only if the menu includes McAloo Tikki.
