Sure, I know that. Saw some different preparations online and thought that maybe there would be some regular meat to it. Definitely an acquired taste and frankly not what I would spend any kind of meal selection on. At least it means I have more stomach real estate for a burger later on

I have TPE-JFK coming up, and I am excited to choose my meal ahead of time! Wanted to know if folks had a preference between Braised Pork Tendon, the Beef Filet served with Herb Madeira sauce, or the Rack of Lamb (not something I would ordinarily get for a plane, but if it's prepared ahead of time, it might be good?). My wife is pretty set on the Wok Fried Grouper - is that an okay choice?
As for midflight meal - what would folks pick between the seafood linguine in white wine sauce vs. the vermicelli noodle soup?

I ended up ordering the pork tendons. It's not what I expected (just because I didn't realize what pork tendons are like), but I enjoyed the dish. It's a pretty light dish (a lot more mushrooms than pork), but that's not a bad thing after the different courses ahead. I would give it a solid B+.
I really enjoyed the vermicelli soup as the pre-arrival dish, and the burger was great. Easy to get refills on wine and champagne. I was perhaps overly harsh about my food choice for the main meal, but everything else about the food service was excellent.

I feel like the seabass could either be excellent or a complete mess drowned in overpowering sauce.

No I haven't but I've always only have had rubbery scallops on planes so I never bother anymore!

Nice! I always factor in hit or miss aspect, but good to know! I am torn 3 ways for dinner - chicken, prawns or tenderloin. Omelette is the breakfast runner up, but I dunno that I can be swayed there.
