Thorgils

I'm not sure whether LX says this explicitly anywhere, but for the most part the dishes that are part of the "Taste of Switzerland" program are only offered on outbound flights originating from Zurich.

Since the Zurich cycle there is no more taste of switzerland ex US, not sure about other intercontinental destinations.

Petz, no sushi courses offered?

PetzLUX

Sorry, forgot to mention the sushi. Was not on the menu card, but offered of course.

2 great flights with a great crew (same crew on both flights). Was fun!

LAX888

What is the "authentic Japanese meal" usually? Also is it good ex-ZRH? Also does it mean the appetizers and desserts are also Japanese? Thanks in advance!

tom-r6

New menu cycle is ahead (from December) and will probably be served from the first Wednesday of the month again (Dez. 5). The topic will be "best of" Swiss taste of Switzerland.

^ Now I'm looking forward to my LX F flight next month even more
