The food is not special (BA are still trying too hard, I still feel they need to be realistic about what's possible in the air and design their menu accordingly.... trying to do stuff like the soufflé shown on TV will never work and is only something that a bunch of design by committee corporate idiots would come up with.... simplifying and going back to basics would do BA a lot of good ! )
I couldn't agree more. when I was flying BA used to trial all sorts of menus and none seem to perfect at 35,000 feet. Some time ago I watched Heston Blumenthal try and perform and the only dish that worked was good old cottage pie!
