Comments: Average NW meal, the smoked salmon is always nice to have. As usual, the curry needed some spicy punch. My seatmate enjoyed her meal and isn't the fan of spicy foods that I am. :)

Drink: Water, orange juice.
Comments: Dinner: I tried NW's Spicy Asian Vegetarian meal. It was vegetarian, as advertised, and not bad, but it was hardly spicy. No sign of any red pepper in the curry. It was acceptable, though, as far as coach meals go. Not something I'd order again, however.
Breakfast was equally bland and equally dreary. I was very disappointed that the "spicy" aspect of the meal was missing.

Meal: Lunch - Turkey wrap, coleslaw, potato chips, oatmeal raisin cookie.
Drink: Water
Comments: The wrap was okay but bland enough that I was glad I brought my own Tabasco. It also contained egg, which would've spelled trouble for someone with an egg allergy as no one mentioned this when handing out lunch. Veggie wraps were an option but no one wanted one - I was in row 3 (of 6) in FC and I think I got the last turkey wrap. They should've catered better.

The coleslaw was crunchy and just sweet/salty enough with a good hit of vinegar. The potato chips were too greasy. The cookie was good but also greasy.

Meal: Snack, salad, dinner, dessert, breakfast - Snack: Cold beef tenderloin, lobster tail, cashews. The beef was a little tough but ok, the lobster was good - excellent texture and just sweet enough, the cashews were cold. I only had a few as I prefer them warm.

Salad: Standard NW salad with ranch dressing. Veggies were nice and crunchy.

Dinner: Roasted salmon with mashed protatoes. Better than expected, nice and moist. Asparagus was little too soft.

Dessert: Fresh strawberries, choclate ice cream in a pastry cup, Godiva raspberry chocolate cookie, crackers with cheddar and blue cheeses. The cheddar was mild and dull, the blue was a little better and creamy. I preferred the blue. The strawberries were fresh and delicious, the ice cream rich and the pastry cup crispy, the cookie was the perfect company for the port.

Breakfast: Fruit salad was chilled a bit too much, the bread wasn't as warm as advertised. The omlet was pretty good but a little rubbery, the sausage was good but a bit too chewy.
Drink: Evian water, Fonesca Bin No. 27 Port
Comments: They were wet. It's all I need in a drink. :) The port was pretty good.

Pasta Chicken Salad with Cranberries
Warm Bread with Butter
DancingDeer Chocolate Peppermint Brownie
Drink: Apple Cranberry
Comments: The usual cold pasta salads NW are known for. The fruits were fresh and tasted good. The chicken salad was good but I have been having it for the last three years which can make it rather boring. The bread was warm and much appreciated. I was sad to see the normal cake sliced replaced with a brownie, which ended up tasting excellent.

Ticket price: About USD 400 (included in vacation package)
Flight duration: 5 hours, 15 minutes
Aircraft type & class: DC10, Economy
Business or leisure trip: Leisure
Meal type: Snack
Contents of the meal: Cheese, crackers, summer sausage, oatmeal & raisin granola bar (not pictured!), Goldfish crackers, dried fruit mix, Oreo cookies
Drink: Diet Pepsi
Comments: Part of NWA's new food for sale program. This cost $3. A sandwich was available for $5, but I wasn't that hungry. This was taken just after the introduction of the program, so many people didn't know a complementary lunch was no longer available, and many complained. Value for the money was ok, there was a fair amount to nibble. The food included wasn't very exciting (or healthy) but what does one expect for $3? The main quibble I have is that they need to include one more packet of crackers. There was too much cheese to spread on the two small ones enclosed, and the Goldfish crackers don't really do the job. I was unenthusiastic about the summer sausage, but it tasted (a little) better than I expected.
