Flying from: Delhi to Dubai, 17 April 2003
Class: Business
Meal type: Lunch - Starter was Chicken Salami with garlic bread - I stopped immediately after that
Drink: Water
Comments: "The garlic bread contained a plastic strip approx. 4mm diameter and 80mm length. A food supplier who doesn´t realize such things happening doesn´t pay any attention to the basics of hygienic food production which is disgusting. Even worse the comment of the Stewardess: such things can happen. If they happen more often we will send a complaint to the supplier. Only 55 minutes after that incident the purser came to me in order to say sorry!"
