Kosher Meal

Dinner

Appears that purity/separation from other (potentially non-kosher) food is taken very seriously. See first photo below, the red label lists the meal's contents individually. The tray, itself is as big or bigger than the seat's tray table, and is heavily saran-wrapped. The main course (just above the red label in the first photo) is heavily wrapped and sealed separately from the other items, but within the tray. In other words, can be tough to unwrap the tray and then the main; risk of making a mess is not to be underestimated. Then you have to somehow get rid of a large handful or saran wrap while the flight attendants walk around with the dining cart. In short - the logistics of getting to the food are not ideal.

Now to the food. Appetizer is a sort of spiced potato salad with tuna. Edible. A sort of dense but decent roll (beats the airline standard fare) with non-dairy spread (mixing meat and dairy is a big no-no in the Kosher diet). Main is a "beef casserole" more like a sort of salted roast beef with carrots, sauerkraut and potatoes. Very edible though was not a fan of the potatoes. Dessert was a kind of artificial-tasting cake, which I didn't mind, had a caramel topping. 

Overall, not too shabby. Happy eat again, minus complex logistics of unwrapping the whole thing and worrying about where to throw out saran wrap. A close second to the Hindu meal previously reviewed.
