Worst Vegetarian meal and crew behavior in Singapore Airlines business class
Being a vegetarian I have been booking Indian Veg meal every time I fly SQ. But sadly I have to hungry as SQ has the worst Veg meal. Twice I have been served stale vegetables which were smelling and most of the times boiled vegetables with rice. I am into healthy food but I am not sick to be served such a meal. On complaining to the crew in business class one Mr Velu commented that this is what we serve if you don’t want to eat I will clear it. Feedback to SQ feedback/ compliant has gone unanswered and no one has bothered to reply. The standard of SQ is really getting worse wether food / crew attitude / FF program. No worth wasting money on one of the most expensive airlines to fly. |

If you fly Y, I’d suggest you select from the onboard menu rather than selecting veg meal option while booking ticket. |

Have you tried the book the cook menu options? There should be vegetarian options.

I'd start with Singapore Airlines' website, which describes the AVML as "Vegetarian Indian Meal (AVML)" as do most airlines in the continent. The idea of an "Asian vegetarian meal" is a hilariously western concept.
as Veg food that could be spicy but Indian is not mentioned. AVML on most Indian routes on all airlines is Indian style but is not guaranteed on non-India routes is my observation.... |

I stand corrected then but I think this is an exception since most of the airlines have AVML described

OP, did you perhaps order a Jain meal? Edit: Though funnily enough AI and 9W offer a special meal that they call an "Asian Vegetarian Meal (AVML)." I'd shudder to think about what's in it that they can't offer as a regular veg option. |

What airlines are you referring to? AVML refers to the Indian (or sometimes Hindu) Veg meal on SQ, TG, CX, KE, BR and other airlines actually in Asia. VOML is the "oriental" meal.

I sometimes pre-order vegetarian meals on SQ, and have never had any issues.
If you're travelling business class, use the Book the Cook option to select your veggie meal. |
I dont assume that the airline meal is going to be something I will eat, so I eat before,
If the meal , mostly pasta (being vegetarian myself) I may nibble, just out of being bored. BA both to and from India has some very tasty Indian options...(actually look forward to see what they have each time I fly) |
