Vegetarian meal mix-up

According to Anisha, since she is a vegetarian, she had pre-ordered her vegetarian meal on the flight. However, soon the mix-ups started and dinner ‘exposed the lies’. First, they served her a crab dish, and when she asked whether the meal was vegetarian, they told her they did not have her pre-ordered meal on board. Finally, they served her a vegetable quiche which was ‘soggy and stale’, something ‘you wouldn’t even eat if it was free', Anisha shared in her video. However, to make her feel better, the flight attendant did give her a ‘basic salad’, followed by chocolate mousse, which was easily ‘the best part.’ Later, she was also served another passenger's vegetarian meal by the steward because they had not taken their meal. “At this point, I am just grateful I was fed,” Anisha expressed, saying that though the experience was bad, her steward and his service deserved an ‘11/10’.
