I flew Qantas

I have noticed that the VA Y Coast to Coast box meal has been slightly improved over the past few months.

Previously, it was say rice, a bit of meat and sauce. They have now tried to add some vegetables as well (baby corn and others were present last Friday).

The low point was this tasty number a little while back. Vegetarian wok fried noodles - tiny portion of boiled noodles, hint of soy sauce and a sprinkling of steamed veg thrown on the top. Was foul.

I agree - its definitely not as bad as it has been. And I've only tried QF twice recently, but both times was impressed by food.

I think I've now been approved for status challenge. My error was asking for a match - which was rejected. I had expected a challenge to be offered, but I needed to reply to the rejection email asking for a challenge, which now appears to have been approved. Waiting for a call back to discuss.

There were some catering improvements as of last Wednesday, not much but I suspect this is an example.

Sheesh... if I got that I'd be asking, "wok the hell is that?!"

Looks about on par with the vegetarian pasta TV dinner dish I got on UA Y many years ago. Unlike a 5 hour flight across the country, I was flying about twice that length of time across the Pacific.

What happened - did they run out of the other option?

Hope that tasted better than it looks (although bangers and mash doesn't really lend itself to be presented beautifully in any given case). That's a lot of mashed potato.

I was tired of the usual chicken flavoured meat substitute in arbitrary sauce with rice as option A and thought I'd take a gamble on the vegetarian option. Was disappointing.

They were running an enchilada dish that seemed to be on every flight I took a couple of years back and it still stands out as one of the worst meals I've ever had. Just wouldn't ever re-heat to something edible.
