QF471 (SYD-MEL) yesterday on the A321XLR. The 17.20 departure meant this was classified as a 'refreshment' service, despite the food being served at 18.00.
Choices were a cheese plate or a Turkish roll with pastrami, cheese and chilli relish. I went for the latter. Wine was a choice of sauvignon blanc or shiraz.
While the sandwich was tasty and it was fun to try the XLR, the Qantas short haul J experience was once again a bit 'meh' (with no PDB either), especially compared to the VA experience which I've tended to find has better catering.
