German Airline Lufthansa Gives Michelin-Starred Meals to Kids

Want to eat Michelin-level airline food? Well, all you’ll have to do is fly to Germany, convincingly pretend to be younger than 12, and you’ll be set. German national airline Lufthansa tapped chef Alexander Herrmann, known for two-Michelin starred restaurant Alexander Herrmann by Tobias Bätz specificallyto put together a new kids’ menu for the airline.

So, adults, you’ll still be stuck with, like, a plate of dry microwaved spatzle and some limp sauerkraut, while your offspring — probably not even grateful that you’ve stuffed them into a high-speed metal tube to fly them across the globe — will tuck into rice pudding mousse with berries and “dragon feet”, a cutesy, ultra-German dish of sausages with piped mashed potato, and some sauerkraut texturing, shaped like a dragon. It’s available to all kids on longer flights, not just high-wealth brats in business class. Is it unfair that only under-12s get this treatment? Perhaps, but they’re also inheriting a planet that may be scarred into oblivion by excess burning of fossil fuels from flying all over the place, so it’s the least we can do to make up for the impending apocalypse.
