Has anyone tried the 'take on board' picnics from Gordon Ramsey's Plane Food restaurant in T5?
Is it a worthy substitute for a main meal on a long haul flight (especially an economy meal)?
Never tried it, but getting tired of BA's economy fare, so wondered if I should give this a go?
Thanks for any feedback
More of a light lunch really - but very nice and well packaged in a cool bag.
I tried one on a domestic a few months ago.
Very tasty, and I actually had to leave the pudding for after I landed as I was replete by that stage.
Fellow passengers in 1C were rather green with envy, and it would have been downright rude had the middle seat been occupied.
With plenty of tasty food in the lounge I rarely need to eat on board shorthaul exLHR, and am very satisfied with the food in F longhaul. But I highly recommend Plane Food (their Eggs Benedict in the restaurant itself is superb as well, but avoid their rip-off orange juice; I was shocked at the price they charged for that!).
