British Airways reveals new menu on flights from London Gatwick and it includes caviar

British Airways has revealed a multi-million-pound revamp of its food service on all flights from London Gatwick.

Menus will now include the likes of seared cod, ale-braised beef and even caviar, with the airline saying the menu has been ‘reimagined and improved’.

The new food has a focus on provenance and BA says the provider, Newrest, has been ‘working closely with suppliers in the south of England to source the best quality ingredients’.

One of the new dishes available to passengers in BA’s Club World cabin. It consists of pan-fried Parmesan polenta with wild mushroom ragout, wilted greens and savoury walnut granola
