New inflight menu on Akasa Air – Times of India
MUMBAI: Akasa Air on Friday said that it has enhanced its inflight food and beverage menu across its network with a new menu of over 60 meal options.
“The menu refresh is the airline’s response to an extensive exercise to understand customer preferences and consumer dining trends,” the airline said in a press statement. The airline said it has introduced “unique, industry-first options” such as avocado & tomato croissant, chicken tikka mint mayo and capsicum in chutney pinwheel, mushroom & feta quiche, chicken kakori kebab turnover, oats & berry muffins and orzo duck salad. “Favourites being retained in the menu include kathi roll, Mediterranean bagelwich and mushroom & brie croissant among others,” the airline said.
“The new menu also includes a range of salads such as Insta-worthy Salad, Basil pesto chicken salad, Chick-a-licious Salad and Quack Pack Salad which are all prepared with nourishing and hearty ingredients,” it added. Keeping with the Indian government’s aim to promote millet consumption, the airline has introduced a millet salad with pomegranate seeds and lemon olive oil dressing.
“The packaging for all perishable meals is 100 per cent recyclable and made from paper which is ethically sourced from sustainably grown crops. Meal boxes are manufactured without any bleach or other optical brightening agents (OBA) chemicals. The wooden cutlery onboard is also biodegradable. Moreover, when passengers pre-book their meals before flying with Café Akasa we eliminate food wastage as all perishable meals are accounted for,” the airline said.
