Airline:   DL
Class:   business
Route:  ATH-JFK
Caterer:  Stogel
Stogel-Hermolis Scale Score (1-10): 2

Haven’t been on intl flight in quite some time (pre-COVID).   Mind boggling that Stogel still has the exact same meal it was serving 3 years ago. 

Only reason it gets a 2 is because the entree (Schnitzel) is okayish is edible.   The rest continues to be vile.     Shameful that DL still uses this provider

Doubt it will do anything - I wrote to DL once that they were serving dairy breakfast after a meat lunch on JFK-LHR without enough time.    They blamed Borenstein - Borenstein blamed Delta saying they’re the ones who place the order.   (Of course you’d think Borenstein would tell airlines when the orders don’t make sense)

What’s amazing is that in 3 years, Stogel didn’t even change one item on their plate — do they think it is so good there is no room for changes?    ;D

LY Regal meals from JFK were actually decent because they were fresh.
For example from the cold tray, the salad and fruit were great as were the potatoes wrapped with pastrami.

Do any other airlines serve fresh Regal meals?

Airline: UA
Class: Economy
Route: LIS-EWR
Date: 06/29/2022
Caterer: Stogel
Meal in pic: Lunch

Didn't fancy chicken for lunch and I prefer not to eat KSML if I can get by without.
The packet included animal cookies (best thing on the tray), some candies, a roll (which was quite fresh, surprisingly), and a salad of some sort that I didn't touch.

Flew PR from DXB-MNL had Arabia Kosher meals. I get they want to give the middle east vibe but I am sorry the food is barely edible. I imagine most people would rather a fresh roll then 2 lousy breadsticks. All the fancy names they slap on the food they are serving does not make it taste better. Serve me a steak or a good piece of baby chicken or even a lamb based meal and I will be happy.

Iberia JFK-MAD uses Borenstien Regal (meat dinner and breakfast).
Food was as you’d expect.
The “breakfast” sandwich is a travesty - I’ve had more generous servings on Camp Trips. Not surprised though.
