Airline menu planners take note: passengers–including this one–love comfort food. My short ribs with a twice baked potato on a recent American Airlines flight in first class was hardly gourmet or elegant, but tasted excellent.
The main course wasn’t pretty (it had splattered all over the casserole dish), but it was delicious…not a high-quality cut of meat by any means, but extremely tender and the “steakhouse” BBQ sauce was a nice mix of tangy and sweet. The twice baked potato was a great addition and even the grilled onions paired well and were not too strong.
As for the sides, I thought the sauce over the shrimp appetizer was far too sweet, but the green salad was fresh and I appreciated the simple olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette dressing.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
