'Wake up...cold chicken tikka': Chef Sanjeev Kapoor slams Air India meal

| @indiablooms | Feb 28, 2023, at 02:53 am

New Delhi/IBNS: Celebrity chef Sanjeev Kapoor Monday slammed Air India for its in-flight meal.

Taking to Twitter, he complained about the food that was served on a flight from Nagpur to Mumbai.

Kapoor alleged that he was served cold chicken tikka with watermelon, and cucumber, a sandwich with minuscule filling, and a dessert that was a ''sugar syrup.''

Sharing pictures of the meal on Twitter, he wrote, ''Wake Up @airindiain. Nagpur-Mumbai 0740 flight. Cold Chicken Tikka with watermelon, cucumber, tomato & sev, Sandwich with minuscule filling of chopped cabbage with mayo, Sugar syrup Sponge painted with sweetened cream & yellow glaze.''

In a second tweet, he wrote, ''Really !!! Is this what Indians should eat for breakfast??''

Air India is yet to respond to Kapoor's tweet yet.

Meanwhile, the tweet raged a lot of Twitter users who criticized the Tata Group-owned airline for serving unsatisfactory meals during flights.

One user reacted to the tweet and wrote, ''That's being very brave ! Serving cold food with strange combos to you !! Hopefully, the Tata group will look into it and improve.'' Another commented, ''I hate to eat food on flights. Never book one. Either eat before or after the journey. Atleast we can eat hot and healthy meal. Even coffee/tea is terrible on flight. Even water is served chilled...I carry my own flask and fill it at the water kiosks after check-in.''

Last month, a woman complained that she found a piece of stone she found in a meal served to her. 

The Twitter user named Sarvapriya Sangwan shared two pictures of the meal, showing a small piece of stone, that she found in her meal aboard Air India flight 215.
