I haven't seen it on any internal menus, but a friend reported the cheese enchiladas out of EWR last night, so those may indeed be back...

Hmmm. You mean these:



EWR-LAX on 02/09/22.

Interesting. On a premium transcontinental?! What time of day?

DELee

6 PM p.t.s. dinner flight.

I ordered the chicken (mistake) and then asked if I could get the enchiladas and was brought the above dish. Given some of the enchiladas that were served last year, I was prepared for not so good but these were really nice and nicely spiced.

LAX-EWR (02/06/22): Breakfast

PDB bubbles:


As noted from the LAX UC thread, brought along a chunk of croissant egg/cheese/bacon as well as ham snack or two:


Pre-breakfast more bubbly - note that the "glass" was plastic:


Options were the kale egg pastry or pain perdu (french toast). Went with the pastry:

Got some of those IAH grapes and no blueberries (and forgot to bring my own stash due to "time constraints")....croissant was warm. Sausages were weird flavor/texture to me. Asked if there were any other varieties of yogurt besides strawberry but of course no such luck.

Had a post-breakfast juice beverage and confirmed the branding on the glass (which was actual glass):



A shot in the cabin darkness of the end of flight snack - unfortunately a bit less than appealing photo - but it was a great snack prior to landing:

Enchilda was pretty good. They also offered cheese and fruit platter or hummus platter close to the end of the flight

Same breakfast choices on IAH-HNL 2 days ago. Pre-arrival options hamburger or sobu noodle salad. We both had burger, came with same Chobani strawberry yogurt as breakfast, and dessert was pie in the sky chocolate chip

Choice of chicken with rice and Italian ragu. Pie-in-the-sky and bread were warmed.

EWR-LAX (02/09/22) Dinner:

PDB: water, OJ, prosecco brut I was corrected (no photos)

pre-meal nuts and adult grape juice:


dining in the sky at night - what some FlyerTalkers seem to miss the allure of:


dinner options: chicken or enchiladas. as noted previously in this thread, I'm still distrustful of enchiladas after their ubiquity and meh-ness from last year. so I went with chicken - TBH, even more meh:


eventually, my Buffalo Trace on the rocks appeared:


at a certain point, gave up on the chicken and, since there were 9 empty J seats, asked if I could have las enchiladas - turns out they were quite good:


pre-arrival snack:


arrival into the Los Angeles basin:


enjoy!

p.s. snuck in a snack from the DCA UC:

Newark to San Francisco, I was offered either chicken with brown sauce or the veggie enchiladas. I had the chicken and it was good. Came with asparagus, a salad, a pretzel roll, and some very delicious cheesecake.

At the end of the flight, they offered crackers with a choice of hummus or charcuterie.

DELee

Yum - real mush!

Choice of ragu or chicken. You’ve seen it all before. Pie-in-the-sky was warmed. No bread.
