New (Oct 2022) Domestic Premium Breakfast

According to the staff on today's flight, the Premium Domestic menus changed on October 26.

Below are photos of the new breakfast menu and crepes from WS649 (YYZ-YYC) this morning.

It's not a "meal" per se, but I assume it's a result of the catering update: I've just been served a hot towel as we're about to begin our descent at the end of the flight. Interesting timing, but I can't recall ever receiving a hot towel on WestJet before...

Hot towels were offered before the pandemic. But they are supposed to be offered after take off. But the concept of hot towels may be new to newer cabin crew members. So it will take some time to get into the habit of doing it (again).

Very disappointing to see so many flights lose their meals and Westjet getting stingier with the snack boxes. Realistically the quality of the meals were worth maybe $10 if they weren't being served on a plane, but really helped make Premium feel worth the added price. I won't pretend to know the business specifics, but feels like a bit of a short-sighted way to save a buck.

Had this beef dish in business class on a recent flight from CUN. Didn't take a photo of the menu.
Also, I'm looking to identify the blackberry-looking stuff in the appetizer dish in the top left. I don't think it's a grape or blackberry.
Edit: thanks to another post, I found out that it's balsamic pearls.

Good to see the Business wine list offering better-than-Premium options again!

The roast beef shepard's pie is delicious, the succotash salad is not - I just found it bitter.

Please submit all menu feedback to westjet. Hopefully they will get the caterers to tweak the recipe!

Flew Business on WS667 on December 28, with the following menu.

I was glad to see champagne on the menu domestically, although there were probably only 2 bottles loaded - we ran out somewhere over Manitoba or Saskatchewan.

Other than elements of the wine list, and the welcome snack (not listed), I assume the catering was identical in Premium?

Yes that is correct. Domestic J is sold as domestic W. Similar meal but bigger seat.

Stir-fried Black Pepper Sirloin with Jasmine Rice, Bocconcini (mozzarella) Salad and Mango Mousse Cake.

The stirfry and rice are quite nice although it is a very small portion compared to the roast beef shepard's pie. Like the succotash salad the bocconcini salad just isn't very good either. I am a salad eater, but neither of these clicked with me.

The mango mousse cake is the same as that served at many Chinese restaurants in Calgary and I enjoy it.

This salad seems to be an odd choice as a starter for an Asian inspired meal.
