In case anyone was getting their hopes up: food on ICE trains is about as bad as airline food. You've been warned.

- woodpanel 8y agoAs a frequent user of both: I can't echo that. On a scale from 1 to 10 (being the best), airplane food ranks -5. ICE restaurant brings home a solid 0. ICE's bigger cooking compartments (relative to the everything cramped airplanes) allow for better options. Plus, you have real tables to eat from and elbow space. The ratio of "unrelated diners engaging in conversation with each other" vs. "unrelated diners engaging in conversation with each other because of the ridiculousness of the food" is way higher in ICEs than in planes. Long story short: In an ICE you have to know what to order. Most meals will be optimized for their type of kitchen (stews; the most ordered item must be Chili con Carne). At least ICE meals don't shy away from their humble origins of being heated-up like airplane food does ("Sansibar Airplane Currywurst...").
