Qantas Business Class meals & menus

At least your menu has a dish without eggs.
For those of us who don’t eat eggs it’s hard getting something to eat on QF.
As a rule I eat in the lounge and skip breakfast on QF flights
Another non-egg-eater here. For me an allergy is the problem. The assumption seems to be everyone eats eggs, but even if you accept the meal and leave the egg they seem to have reduced the number and types of accompaniments. I do not consider muesli a meal. What happened to the good old sausage, even in the lounge - looking at you SYD domestic and AKL ? Eating in the lounge is the only way to get an edible meal. Ordering a "Special" meal is not an alternative as the choices are not appealing AND it often does not get loaded anyway.

Yep- same with my seafood allergy in certain parts of Asia (or supposedly “classy cuisine” pretty much anywhere) or I also I got friends who can’t eat mushrooms or tomatoes, they are in a similar situation. So I feel for you! 🤗
 
Lunch on BNE-MEL: chicken dumplings (and some soy sauce due to a ‘catering failure’.

The other choice was a salmon bagel with no salmon or a blueberry muffin…

I love a dumpling but this looks like something my "gourmet" drunken alter-ego cooks up at 1am. 🫣

Which is probably the extensive research that NP did in developing it as a J meal. Lunch ??

Perhaps I have an entirely new and undiscovered future career ahead of me. I just need to get drunk and start pitching my catering ideas to the airline industry. My sober self can then just write up some QF-style explanations.

"[Name of a type of dumpling most people have never heard of], sauce crafted from crushed sesame seed, compressed dessert bar of ancient whole grains and air-dried regional fruits."
 
5 stars to the customer care team though. I wrote up a complaint in flight (with a photo of the meal) and had a response 16 mins later and 10,000 points as a ‘gesture of good will’.

Let this be the new normal until they get it. I did the same thing last on the ridiculous shelf-stable picnic they try to pass off out of Samoa/Palau/Tonga.

10,000 points are worth $50 cash even at their worst redemption rates. It'd have been cheaper in those cases to provide a decent service. If enough people start pushing back, perhaps they'll assess that to be true across the board.
