“Above And Beyond”–Singapore Airlines Book Sparks Flier Recommendations

Singapore Airlines has released a cookbook called Above & Beyond, A Collection of Recipes from the Singapore Airlines Culinary Panel. The panel is made up of some of the world’s top chefs, including Gordon Ramsay, who’ve provided expertise to the chefs at Singapore Airlines.
Fox took the cookbook’s debut as an opportunity to ask frequent fliers for their recommendations on meals by airline.
An omnivore chose Continental Airlines Indian vegetarian meal, saying the paneer curry and mixed vegetable dish beat the rubbery meat menu by thousands of altitudes. “The consistency of the paneer was true to what paneer’s consistency should be, and the curry and mixed vegetable dish had just enough spice and flavor.”
Delta fliers may want to avoid the salad, which was described as “typically wilted greens with a cup of greasy vinaigrette dressing. The fruit is not good. For some reason it always tastes like it’s carbonated, it’s the strangest thing.”
Those who have ordered vegan on a British airline may have inadvertently been stereoptyped as terrorist, though there was nothing more terrorizing than the non-vegetarian food available. One British Airways flier reported the two sandwich choices were either ham and cheese or cucumber with soft cheese.
Happy Cow has an extensive list of major airline carriers which routinely provide vegetarian and vegan options.
