Haha... I just noticed this thread after I devoured 2 serves of this for breakfast 2 days ago, special request before 11am and graciously fulfilled.

Too greasy for me, but I have been able to procure the S&P Squid & the Pav at breakfast when I’ve taken guests in.

Yup, forgot to mention I finished off with the compulsory pav!
My cardiologist would be appalled!

Serves you right for introducing your cardiologist to AFF!
No food cough for you then!

Ah, as master Yoda would have said “learn you must, my friend”..... this was what I showed my other half when asked what I was having but that was only the starter so I wasn’t lying!

I read plenty of posts on AFF from people moaning about “QF inconsistency”... including on this thread.

While I respect your opinion, and your right to express it, I don’t see too many of you giving credit where it’s due.

Every photo so far in this thread has had exactly the same picnic cutlery.*

Completely identical.
Completely consistent.

*where cutlery has been visible. Cutlery consistency (TM)is only available to Frequent Flyers who register for the QF cutlery consistency (TM) offer during the promotion period, which is consistently vague in definition, and then use their cutlery in an overcrowded lounge after being denied a spa treatment.

Why?

Is must be good for you 'cause it is deconstructed ...

LAX is showing a dark, heavily battered common theme - but I guess it's consistent... .

Still prefer my own most Friday nights when I return home from the pub raffles. Some squid from the local fish retailer, a little flour with some salt and pepper and a small amount of chilli powder all mixed together and the 90 seconds in the deep fry. Looks exactly the same and i'm sure the taste is better. No need to swan around a F club or CL for me

How about a pic?

(BTW: Don't take what you read here too seriously - the rest of us don't .)

The red sauce from SYD 2013 looks a bit strange (and sans chillies or spring onions...), but LAX Jan '18 looks better than other LAX versions.

Hmmmm - maybe we need a scoring system? There are a lot of variables consistent inconsistencies (TM) .

Colour/crispiness of coating.
Chillies - Y/N.
Shredded spring onions - Y/N.
Colour/texture of sauce.
Lemon cheek - Y/N.

Now to assign a value/weighting to those...
