Flew Suites from SIN-SYD earlier this week.
Ate Lobster in TPR before boarding
They had whole Chilli Crab on the normal menu, so had that for Supper.
And BTC the Lobster for Breakfast.

All in all a good three meals on the way home.

chili crab on the a la carte menu on the plane? wow!

Bit messy? Or was it a baby crab? Soft shell?

It was a whole crab in sauce, with the body cut up into 4 and the legs cracked.
Served with Rice, it was very messy, but delicious.

Last time I was there, soap was available in the loo.

Plus, no one is looking at you anyway !

Looks very nice deka2.

That looks like a manageable size. When I have chilli crab in Singapore we spend quite a long time arguing over the size and price of the crabs and usually end up with enormous monster crabs, which are far too much for 1 person, and rather difficult to eat gracefully.

Hence bibs are essential

I've been to Singapore maybe 10+ times... and never had chili crab. I think I'm missing out.

Mrs TKK would love this! She's flying J in Sept. Should I upgrade her to Suites?

Indubitably!

Chilli crab is Suites sounds so wrong,
but looks so right.
There is a delicious decadence to this.

Anyone had the sushi recently in F ex SIN? And, what's good FRA- JFK in F?

Husband had it a couple of weeks ago. Around six nigiri pieces, I think, it looked awful to me to be honest. It really is hard to get the temperature right for something like that in the air.

haven't had it but hear the suckling pig is the FRA-JFK speciality

Not the sushi but I had the Kyo-Kaiseki just last week and it was fantastic - better than what I had on JAL a couple days later.

That looks yummy.

BTC in J vs F/suites, is there any actual difference if the dish is called the same thing?

In F you usually get a little something extra. For example - the poached eggs out of Sin you also get lobster added if you're in F etc.

However, out of other stations they can be broadly similar.

Can anyone suggest / review - Wholesome Pistachio Crusted Paneer with Salsa.

Mom in Law is travelling (to help us with the bub) so have booked her on J. She is a vegetarian, so need to make sure she has something lovely to eat.

Hello everyone,
I will be flying from LHR to Sin on the 915am flight in mid July.
When selecting the BTC meal, i am torn between the lobster noodles and the rossini beef.
I would like to know what time do they serve the brunch meal and the breakfast meal ?
(IF there is a big gap between the meals, i might go for the beef dish)
And what happens if you go hungry between the meals ? (I probably won't, but i am curious)
Are you allowed to order more dishes ?
