Celebrity chef Sanjeev Kapoor slams Air India over in-flight meal; airline responds
Celebrity chef Sanjeev Kapoor lambasted Air India for its in-flight meal. Unhappy with the food he was served on a flight from Nagpur to Mumbai, the chef took to Twitter to complain about the meal. The chef alleged that he was served cold chicken tikka with watermelon, and cucumber, a sandwich with miniscule filling, and a dessert that was essentially ''sugar syrup.''
Sharing pictures of the food on Twitter, the chef 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??''

A few hours later, Air India responded saying, ''Sir, your feedback is paramount to us. We're continually upgrading our services and from tomorrow this sector will be catered to by our partners Taj Sats and Ambassador. Trust you will have a better experience with the food onboard going forward!''

In the meantime, the tweet also irked several 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.''
