Air France: New Dishes Featured on A la Carte Menus

A la carte menu: “Tradition”

Air France passengers opting for the à la carte menu have been able to discover new dishes since May 1. Available in Economy and Premium Economy cabins as an alternative to the complimentary meal served on board long-haul flights, these carefully prepared gourmet dishes aim to turn the flight into a unique culinary experience.

A “Sélection LeNôtre”, “Ocean”,  “Tradition” or “Italia” are the four “à la carte” menus available on the company’s long-haul flights on departure from Paris*. Comprising a starter, main dish, cheese and dessert, the menus are renewed every year.

With the “Sélection LeNôtre” meal specially created for Air France by chefs at the famed Maison LeNôtre, customers can now enjoy a zucchini, pepper and parsley terrine, sautéed marinated prawns and pan-fried scallops, or Fragola desserts selected by LeNôtre.

With the “Tradition” menu, customers can enjoy a genuine French fine dining experience. Customers who reserve this menu can enjoy among other choices foie gras terrine with gingerbread, blanquette of veal or a delectable homemade chocolate cake.

A la carte menu: “Italia”

The “Ocean” menu offers a subtle and delicate blend of flavours from the sea. Sautéed prawns with ginger, salmon served with sorrel sauce and lemon meringue shortbread are yours to try.

The “Italia” menu offers a range of colourful dishes combining the warm tastes and flavours of sunny Italy, with involtini, pasta stuffed with raw cured ham and cheese and a cappucino tart among the dishes proposed.

“Tradition”, “Ocean” and “Italia” menus featuring new dishes are also available on departure from Cayenne, Fort-de-France, Pointe-à-Pitre and St Denis.

Air France’s A la carte menus can be ordered online on airfrance.com at the time of booking in the “View/modify my bookings” section, during online check-in and at its call centres and Air France ticket offices up to 24 hours before departure.

*Offer available on all flights on which a hot meal is available, on departure from Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Orly, excluding flights to Amman, Bangalore, Bombay, Damascus, Delhi, Montreal and Toronto.
