I had a glass of Champagne Duval Leroy Fleur de Champagne Brut as aperitif,
carbonated mineral water with the meal, and a 1999 Vesco Nero d'Avola
Cabernet Sauvignon IGT with the cheese.
Comments: On flights to India, Lufthansa offers Indian
style vegetarian meals in addition to the western-style menu. The appetizer
plate was a bit disappointing with the cheese too dry and the carrots
too hard, but the entree was good and the dessert, consisting of of cheese
balls in pistachio creme, tasted delicous. Friendly and professional service.
