I'm sure that many members of this group have experienced some truely
wonderful meals on the train.  I know that I have, though the frequency
was greater before Amtrak.  In fact, for many years it has been
possible to buy a book entitled "Dinner in the Diner" which consists of
great railroad receipes.

On Monday, I was in Kroch's and Brentano's, a very good bookstore in
Chicago, with quite a nice selection of railroad books.  They also have
an aviation section, and I was looking through it when I encountered a
book entitled soemthing like: "Great Airline Receipes".  I opened the
book expecting to see a bunch of empty pages, but instead saw all sorts
of receipes from all sorts of airlines.

Since I have never had a truely fine airline meal, I find this to be a
major joke.  Question: has anyone had a truely excellent meal on an
airplane?  If so, would you please describe it and pass on the name of
the airline and the class you flew?
