And it was not so sugary as cakes are in the US! I saved the spread and ate it at home - olives, nuts - just awesome. In a nutshell: El-Al, kol hakavod! ("great job" in hebrew)

Drink: Water
Comments: "I ate part of the chicken breast. Nope, that didn't do it for me. The rice was slightly better. The fruit slices are good, and the cake is ok but not much more than that. El-Al has metal cutlery (yes, including a metal knife) in spite of increased security (when asked the staff said that "El-Al's security concept does not assume that the passengers do not have access to knives"). It's just a pitty that the fine metal knife is wasted on such a mediocre meal."
