PRESS RELEASE: Air Asia's Inflight Menu
7:51 AM
I’m sure you’ve seen
my post way back that Air Asia and Zest Airline has been rebranded as Air Asia Zest to provide us with first
class treatment without putting hole in our wallet. And that’s what Airasia
Zest offering to everyone. Through AirAsia Zest, The Best Low Cost Airline
in the world is just a piece of cake!
Last November 20, our
friends from Air Asia Zest invited us to a blogger launch of their In-flight
meals. Air Asia Zest provides wide array of foods that will surely satisfy your
cravings while you’re on board. Yes, you got it right, I’ve got this *kilig*
feeling when I receive the news that I was invited in the said event. Haha!
Even before the event
started, the bloggers were indeed busy taking photos.
While waiting for the
program to start, AirAsia Zest offers their sandwiches and snacks to us.
Not to mention these
REALLY TO DIE FOR sweet treats!
I was WOWed when I
saw Jonathan Yabut as the head speaker of the event. I was like “I’m just
watching him in Youtube with his interview with Mr. Tony Fernandes on why He
should be The Apprentice Asia, but now He’s standing in front of me?” hahah!
Before digging on the
foods, the Chef shared us everything on how they handle the foods so it’s
guaranteed that they will serve it to us the freshest. I was amaze that Chef
explained that they uses a Blast Chilling Technology to make sure that it’s on
the highest quality even at 35,000 feet above the ground.
A lot of raffles,
freebies and round trip tickets were given! (Rica Paralejo was one of the
winners)
The very beautiful
flight attendant was also there to hand us the scrumptious meal.

*Here are my entries
to their Instagram Contest that time. Well sad to say, but I really don’t have
luck ever since with contest. Sigh. That would be instant Domestic Flight
incase! Hehe! :P*
Honey Glazed Chicken: Second fave! It was delish! The sweet and
rich sauce it has complimented well the tender boneless chicken plus their
steaming hot rice. Perfecto!
Korean Beef Stew: My absolute favorite! Sweet and Salty combination
of beef incorporated well with their saucy sauce with a nice touch of veggies
as sidings. I was really happy since the Beef itself was tender and easy to
chew. I mean, I always experienced somewhere that the meat will turn into a
bubble gum-like meat. But AirAsia Zest
nailed this one! Hands up!
Uncle Chin’s Chicken Rice: It was served in a smaller portion. (Not
the actual size) Since there’s more to come! Hehe! This is boyfie’s favorite!
He loved the flavorful silky plump Chicken Rice it has. The Chicken was nicely
seasoned and tender as well.
Pak Nasser’s Nasi Lemak: Crowd’s favorite winner! We were asked
after the entire meal on our favorites, and then when the Nasi Lemak was
called, the room was roared with cheer and claps! I admit, I don’t appreciate
this food that much because of personal reason since my tolerance on spicy
foods is low. Hehehe. I’ve tried tasting the Bagoong, MAAAAAN!!! It was
ridiculously goooood! “Alamang pa lang, ulam na!”
Chicken Adobo ala Mariles – Ofcourse, Filipino food wouldn’t be
complete without Adobo right? The Sweet-Sour marinated chicken is just divine.
The sauce sips in the chicken that you’ll surely taste in every bite.
Maan’s Pasta Arrabiata – I am self confessed sweet pasta kiddo. I
think my taste bud is not cultured enough on authentic Italian. Haha! Their
approach here is classic Italian flavor. It has tangy flavorful tomato sauce
with a bit kick of spiciness. So if you’re a fan of classic Italian pasta, I’m
sure you will love these.
And before everything
else, let me just tell you how AWESOME this cookie was!!! Well, isn’t it enough
for me to tell you guys that THIS.IS.THE.BEST.COOKIE.EVER???! I’m not joking, I
swear, this cookie is just heavenly!
It even topped my
favorite cookies from different branded cookie store out there. It was insanely
chewy, moist and chocolatey! Please do me a favor, please do buy these babies if
ever you’ll fly with AirAsia Zest, it will soon be your favorite!
