I'll remember to ask for the chef’s specials next time!

Nice article looking at the personalities that *make* Qantas!

... and I'll be the first to ask: as someone who usually arrives at least jaded - and sometimes severely jet-lagged and orders something familiar from the menu, what are examples of "Not all of the chef’s specials are printed on the menu. But they are available if you know to ask!"??

Regards,

BD

I've always wondered if "Chef Linda" was a real person or simply a marketing gimmick. Good to see the face behind the name.

I was in the lounge last week and there were no specials available - cue mini violin

Do we have anyone had the off-menu items? What was available at the time.

Great article...this is the type of content Qantas should be producing and communicating....

Great article. I’ve always really enjoyed the food at the SIN lounge and Chef Linda’s shrimp paste chicken wings are a must for me whenever it’s on the menu.

My new favorite is the milo dinosaur pannacotta. I hope it has a long life on the menu.

Amid all the negative press (mostly deserved) around QANTAS of late, this article is a nice reminder that many QANTAS staff still do an excellent job and provide commendable service.

Generally only PAX in First / CL / P1 get offered off menu items, but it can't hurt to ask.

(In SYD they have a special printed menu for such.)

The shrimp paste chicken wings should never have been taken off the menu. It is to SIN QF First lounge, what salt and pepper squid is to SYD First lounge.

I asked in SIN last week and they said no - was flying First.

I'm not sure if this counts as a "ask and you shall receive" thing - but in my last 2 visits, I asked if the Chef could do a vegan fried rice for me and I was provided with the best tasting vegan fried rice In both instances, the wait staff said that they will need to check with the Chef and in both instances they came back with a hot bowl of vegan fried rice, with a side of chilli

Any chance they can retire NP?. CL can take over everywhere. Having to run menus by NP is like being slapped with wet fish.....
