The menus are changing in all cabins from June 7th.
Amongst the delights to look forward to in Upper Class are a Thai green curry and a lamb shank. [y]
The new menu for Premium Economy and Economy is still under wraps.

Thanks Jetstreamer. [y][y]
please keep us posted on the new delights, 'down the back' when you can.
We know of one member who will be glad to see the return of the lamb.

Don't tell him - they'll probably change it again before he flies in November - then he'll be upset all over again.

Fabulous, were flying out in Upper on the 8th to JFK.
Fingers crossed for either the Lamb or Green Curry, although I know the lamb will win

Well thats good news as I am off to sunny Swansea for the latter half of June and didnt really like the sound of the items on the Best of British menu (not that I sampled it so please dont take that as a whinge people).
I assume (and you know what happens when you assume) that the wine selection isnt changing.

Wonder if it will have changed for our inbound back to LGW on the 7th - bet not.

Thanks for the update Marc [y]
As I commented on in my TR's down the back of the bus, I was plesently surprized with the food [y]. There just wasn't enough for a 12Hr+ flight especially for someone like me who likes to eat a little often rather than a lot at once.
Regards

Thanks for the update JS [y]
Now to make my day, as a starter before my Lamb Shank, I wonder if I could get a nice hard boiled Egg?

.
OT, but you will all be pleased to know that this post has been spell checked by the new v-flyer spell checker - look top right when you click "reply to". So now I have no excuses [n]. Thanks Pete [y].

Is there anywhere on the VS website that actually tells you current menu options or do you have to rely on the wonderful information on here ?

I'll second EGG - welcome back Lamb Shank.
I don't know about Sailor looking for a hard boiled egg - we seem to have a very happy EGG right now...

Thanks, Jetstreamer, for keeping us informed ahead of the masses.
I never had the "old" lamb, so will enjoy trying the new lamb (yes, I confess to being a lamb lover though admit to it being an "acquired taste").

[:?] Er, EGG, not wanting to burst your bubble but the UC menu usually has a three month rotation (except for the time we had the bangers and radioactive mash seemingly forever [:0]) Given that you are not flying out till November you might want to grab and extra UC flight to avail of the lamb

Nooooooooooooooooo,
I am off in a few days. I don't eat lamb and I try to make it my policy not to eat anything green (and that includes veg!)
Please someone save me some bangers and mash.

Is that also from the same day as the new U/C food menu?

Might be acceptable. The rest are rather nasty though...
