JFK-LAX D1 Breakfast
Just went in to select my meal for upcoming JFK-LAX D1 flight.
Not really impressed by the menu.
D1 JFK-LAX Breakfast Flight Menu
Anyone had the Clafoutis before? Pictures? It sounds the best to me.
I would normally go with Frittata, but can't stand goat milk/cheese. Not sure why DL seems lately to be obsessed with goat milk/cheese, multiple flights (both international and domestic) have had multiple dishes with it instead of 🐄 milk/cheese.

Seeing a lot of it in restaurants lately too. (granted I love goat cheese so it doesn't bother me at all but its definitely a very strong taste and I get a lot of people don't like it.)

You guys, I just flew United Polaris for the first time. I will never complain about Delta One food ever again.

I am wondering if there are any datapoints on the dinner menu between LAX and MCO? Sadly the flight is serviced on a 739 so I am hoping the menu is at least somewhat tolerable.

I have the same first three choices for my JFK-LAS flight, and I can’t stand the taste of goat cheese either. I’ve had the oats with coconut pudding before, I think SLC to MSP back in June, and it was a large portion. Going to try the smoked salmon and bagel … Hope it’s not the same as the crap boxes Delta was giving out last year!

Russ and Daughters is a very well thought of place in NYC for all kinds of smoked fish. Their salmon is excellent.

I hate how DL seems obsessed with all of the "impossible" vegan stuff--I won't call it food--which isn't even healthy.

Also, what are the chunks/cubes on the salad? Tofu?
