MUC - FRA (Nov 2025)
Cured Tuna Salad (and a "fresh" loaf of bread)

So I've been really disappointed with the catering recently as well, so given the high quality of the BA KSMLs figured I'd request them on some upcoming flights I had with OS and LH - after all, the food can't get much worse, can it?

First up is a breakfast VIE-SOF flight on OS. This was hummus, tinned tuna, a stale bread roll with some strudel. At 9am. 4/10 (only for the strudel).

Next up was a SOF-MUC on LH. I was hoping that I'd escape the vegetarian options they seem to be providing from outstations. No such luck. This was some kind of tofu. I had one bite and handed it back. 1/10.

Finally, I have a MUC-ARN. This was some kind of mechanically processed turkey. Also a 1/10. At least the pretzels were edible.

Thanks for taking all of those for the Team :tu: we are suitably warned :D

LCA-MUC: a proper meal and a tasty one too. 3 hot meals on the menu + 5 more to choose from if you pre-order in the app.

Short Ribs with beans and potatoes

But that was not the end of it; LH gave me the opportunity to suffer from another beetroot attack, on my long haul. With cottage cheese this time. And which I again declined.

I am not sure if I should post this … perhaps as another warning 😂

Another chris63 special (as in a much hated vegetarian option) on today’s afternoon BER - FRA flight:

A keen observer would note that they have upped the orange slices. Taste wise reminded me of those feared beetroot salads we used to get in kindergarten / school lunches in Germany — PTSD alert and thanks for the nostalgia, LH!

It may be that my palate is not as sophisticated as that of the intern, but I struggle to conceive of the thought process (let alone the approval process) which sees a dish like this presented to Business Class passengers as a premium offer.

And if somehow you could have been a fly on the wall when the decision was made, I am sure the conversation would have been far from inspiring.

AMS - FRA yesterday had 3 choices for the meal, unusually. The Beetroot thing, which -presentation aside- I actually like, a Salmon thing and one other. The crew was also fantastic. And then FRAPORT let us all down by assigning a bus position and taking >30min to deliver luggage.

MUC-MAN late evening flight on Lufthansa City. I wasn’t hungry but asked for the food so I could take a look (and was not impressed). Sorry about the quality of the photo.

I’m not sure about the “trio”.

Looks grim but a change since ex outstations it was always Vegetarian, unless there were leftovers from the inbound flight.

Maybe they have reacted to all the complaints 🤔

This was MUC-MAN and not ex-outstation.

Not seeing a lot of reviews of the pre-order options. Have a flight ex-FRA early next month and stumbled on the pre-order options:
  • Traditional German Currywurst | Pork- and Beef meat | Curry Sauce
  • Game Meatball | Swabian Potato Pasta | Creamy savoy cabbage | Lingonberry sauce | Bacon
  • Potato Gnocchi | Truffle Sauce
  • Venison Goulash | Beet Root | German-style Spaetzle
  • Cod Fish | Mustard Sauce | Orange Fennel | Braised Cucumber| Mashed Potatoes
  • Creamy Cheese Spaetzle | Fried Onions
The standard options are:
  • Fregola Sarda Risotto | Wild Broccoli | Sour Cream | Pumpkin | BBQ Sauce
  • Fish Dumpling | Caper Sauce | Pickled Onions | Potato Mustard Mash
  • Roast Goose | Red Cabbage | Potato Dumpling | Caramelized Herbs
The only one I've seen mentioned in this thread is the currywurst. Any opinions on any of the other options?

The Roast Goose comes out for Christmas and is usually very good
