Virgin Australia Business Class - Meals, Menus & Service

[Rangalad]

Been on ROb's

Lunch service. Choices were goat cheese quiche or pumpkin and beetroot salad. The salad wasn’t great. CSM was Rob ( no introduction I read his name badge) was not engaged, just going through the motions.

Been on a couple of Rob's flights.

Major can't be bothered (apologies if I'm not allowed to say that)
Goes through the motions, no real interest or engagement.

Those dogs eyes look YUMMO - all I need is a bowl of them, a cold beer and Brooklyn Nine Nine on the IFE.

I notice the cheese is a packet from the per pay menu - not even individual served wedges now?

It surprised me as well, but as I mentioned the CSM was doing the minimum, so probably couldn't be bothered removing them from the packaging. I noted that in Astro's photo the cheese was also in the packaging, so perhaps it's a new thing...

Yes , it was good. The other option was bacon which I don't eat

VA329 Melbourne to Brisbane. Lunches.

Lamb empanadas. Meh.



Noodle salad. Wife said it was ok.


Looks like the cheese and biscuits are the new normal. It's been a few months between flights for me, I suspect the accountants have put a ruler over the food.

Roasted chicken with scrambled egg and corn

Thanks
Wasn't sure if that was scrambled egg or corn. Being lunch I thought it might have been creamed corn, but in fact it was scrambled egg and corn!

 

[Tropic]

scrambled egg and corn!

Don't mind eggs or corn, but together....

 

[zig]

Don't mind eggs or corn, but together....

My thoughts exactly....

 

[serfty]

Don't mind eggs or corn, but together....

I often have a Qantas first class lounges breakfast speciality, the Hispanic style corn fritters and two poached eggs ... ... Yum!

Flew ADL-BNE on Monday, was expecting a snack but lunch was offered (though it was a snack), either bolognese arancini balls or A hummus plate.

Went with the arancini and they were delicious, as was the soft Camembert that came with it. Paired with a sauv blanc.

Business was 8/8 and everyone had the arancini. When I asked for the hummus later I was told there wasn’t any available... but I was given some olives and cheese & crackers (in the packet). Overall, a good meal.

HBA-SYD on Sat early flight, were less than 20 people on board. Birscher muesli with raspberries was just what I wanted.

 

[Tassieoptom]

SYD-BNE Saturday morning zucchini fritter and halloumi, bacon. Flight was half full.

Post automatically merged: Mar 18, 2020

Monday morning BNE-HBA almost full flight, went for the Bircher muesli again with blueberries this time. Not the same wow factor as the last Bircher I had on Saturday but quite nice anyway.

This thread hasn’t had much action lately...

This was my VA J meal yesterday on BNE-ROK, 8.45am departure:



No other options, everyone just got the same snack box.

I’d just had corn flakes for breakfast in the lounge (there were not a lot of food options there either) so just what I felt like was... more corn flakes.

Had this on BNE/CNS 17:50 departure.




Lucky I had this in the lounge prior to departure
