I wonder... do they keep the same menu around for the month (with the exact same offerings)? Never travelled twice in the same month on 9W, so I'm not sure.

They used to - for simplicity I'm sure...

LH unfortunately serves the same horrible food in C without changes during the summers! One of the reasons Oberoi got booted...

Terrible - that Noble Cuvee was not something I was too fond of! Yuk.

Dom was present a couple of weeks back on DEL-LHR in J and also on LHR-DEL in F.

5 December was *again* the cutoff date, apparently!

The menu from EWR (not handed to pax) showed Dom, but the horrible "The Noble Cuvee de Lanson" was offered to us...

Then the menu handed out on the flight from BRU to BOM had it printed, cementing our fears!:

You would be the one to tell us!

One *was* able to sample Dom in C, but now it's only offered in F!

Regionals?? You mean domestic - Nothing!

Actually, they have a decent one on the SIN legs - last time I flew - a German-sounding one - forget the name...
