Catering was disappointing, ranging from small portions to items that were "off" tasting. I like the fact that LH tries to offer at least three choices for appetizers, but the execution of some of them does not always comes out as expected. The snack was just atrocious, in both presentation and taste. I find the soup and salad combination very frugal and not something that is worthy of a premium cabin. It screams "cost cutting" to me. It is better to offer something a bit more substantial like a hearty sandwich and some fresh fruits and most importantly, provide a choice. The ability to choose is one of the most important perks of flying a premium cabin.
