OMG, thank you! (Super late to replying)
Bread pudding is the only thing on the plate that I couldn't figure out. It felt like a quiche in texture, but bread pudding makes sense. Thanks1

My sons who fly to LHR from LAX for meetings also dine in DL One Lounge or they will fly LAX/DTW/LHR.

DL120 HND-LAX

Dinner
Japanese Menu
Kobachi duck breast and mustard vinegar miso, braised octopus with cucumbers and tofu vinegar sauce, shungiku with shimeji mushrooms and ponzu jelly
Sweet Soy Braised Beef Short Rib sweet soy sauce, shimeji mushrooms, broccoli, bell peppers, braised burdock root, Tawara Gihey rice, vegetable miso soup, Japanese Pickles


Not really near the quality of the Japanese meals on JL/NH but still very good (and probably fewer "weird" flavors/textures than I've had on the Japanese airlines). Beef and vegetables were perfectly cooked as well, although sauce was a little bit too sweet

Aftermath:


Sundae for dessert - was in 2A so needed to give it some time to melt


Slept through the midflight cookie (first time in row 2 and can confirm the footwell makes a difference)

Pre-Arrival
Chicken Curry curry sauce, carrots, potatoes, snap peas, Gihey white rice


Didn't look like much but this was your classic Japanese curry and again hit the spot. Would gladly take this as a domestic F meal

I guess not in this case. Called in to select and both the agent I spoke to and the ticketing agent that they tried to check with could also only see the mushroom ravioli. Apparently others are finding the same and it is a known IT issue.

That meal does not look anything like the delightful meal I was served in upper class half a decade ago. At the time I remembered thinking it was significantly superior to Delta One, now I'd lean in the opposite direction. Interesting how things change..

Liked the food slightly better on the late afternoon flight back to JFK but still had some issues. I did like the scone in the afternoon tea service. https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/37459862-post19.html

DL2591 MSP-BOS
Lunch

Roasted Chicken Breast charred tomato sauce, turmeric-coconut basmati rice, grilled vegetables, crispy onion (*contains sesame)

MSP catering substitutions strike again and instead of turmeric-coconut basmati rice we got regular unflavored short/medium-grain rice and this honestly was pretty bad (it's also a D1 entree/saw it on the menu for my flight to ICN and if I got this in D1 I would be even more disappointed):



Good BOS-based crew though - full PDB, FEBO followed, full snack basket made an appearance after trays were cleared as well.

I received an email from Delta offering two food selections for my AMS-MCO flight next week.
I'm PM and my seat is in Comfort+.
Both selections are made with cheese and I'm allergic to both.
Do Delta flights from Europe typically carry a 3rd meal choice that I can select on the plane, subject to availability?

When did DL start doing meal pre-orders in C+ for international flights? Is regular coach next?

Had that offered on our flights to and from HND this past fall flying C+. Fun fact though, the flight attendants still just went through and asked which option we wanted so I wonder if the pre order was just to get a sense of how much for each meal they should stock.

Is there no option on delta.com when looking at your flight for a 'special meal'? I seem to remember the flight attendants coming around offering these even in coach before the main meal service. Not sure if theres a 'no cheese' specific option.

Delta One - JFK to LAX

Great dish - my favorite curry so far. It tasted like a Thai curry you’d get out. A little bit of a kick to it, but still mild. Flight crew was fantastic. All of the new Missoni bedding, amenity kit, and slippers were onboard.

As a side note, nice to see fewer 763s on this route as of January. 5 to 6 of the 8 to 9 daily flights are on 332s, 339s, or 764s. Even seeing three A330-900neos on Mondays.

I have a RT between atlanta and LAX in the next week. Maybe it's anecdotal, but I feel like the choices for meals are fewer than in the past. I remember they would have a choice of 3 or so usually with a few extra local ones. Basically Belgium Waffles / Smoked Salmon Plate / or Chia pudding.

Yep domestic preorder choices seem to have gone from 5 to 4. Definitely on breakfast and lunch, not sure about dinner.

It is from 5 to 3! I got the same preorder, Waffles, Chia or Salmon Plate. I guess I go hungry on this 4hrs+ flight! Not even a simple Omelet or a Quiche!
I hope they have something extra and different on board!

Lunch went from 5 to 4.
