Today's steak on QF 37. In no way overcooked. Very good actually. Sorry it's half eaten...

It’s never “overcooked”, just over reheated.

Pretty sure all airlines load them as “medium rare”. So it’s a fine line between defrosting and sufficiently warmed to lurching towards well done …

But that looks like they followed the reheat timings!

I don't think the verb really matters ( what gets presented is what counts) and this was a fine piece of meat. The peas were a bit more challenging for me but Mrs D would disagree with me on that one so I have to say all in all a fine meal.

Yes, it looked good!

My point was they invariably leave them in the ovens too long and rather reheating just sufficiently to be served, they end up coming close to cremating them. Why?

Hey, that’s how I like my meat

So- it is definitely possible. Even on Qantas! That looks indeed excellent!

QF188 AKL-MEL.

The menu said beef with baked vegetables and cous cous.

I say stew.



Beef was rubbery.

Vegetables were soggy.

The cous cous was…. Interesting.

QF79 MEL-NRT 20 March VH-QPG.

Service amazing today, same crew I had to Singapore a few months ago and whilst not entirely polished they make you feel at home and comfortable.

Chose the Japanese meal (I never eat pork usually) and everything was very good. Especially the sake lol,

The crew were not impressed that I couldn’t get an award seat home tomorrow or Sunday and have to fly JAL ))

That roll looks very ordinary too. It's not that hard to find nice bread rolls

QF880 MEL-OOL

Chicken salad was really nice and a good lunch option.

QF41 SYD-CGK

Great crew today.

Duval-Leroy was the champagne.

The CSM also happened to be one of the sommeliers that train cabin crew so we had a good chat about reds and I enjoyed a Cab Sav and Shiraz pairing with the beef.

Thai fish cakes are a winner for the pre-landing snack.

QF431 SYD-MEL 9:35am departure VH-VXH.

Karen was great and the crew were working as hard as I’ve ever seen to get people’s bags in the overhead lockers. Why they allow people to walk on with 3 or 4 pieces is beyond me especially on a flight with zero empty seats.

Food options were the smoked salmon bagel or spinach leek and cheese crumpets. I’d moved forward from the 11:35 to the 9:30 and was in 3C but surprised they hadn’t run out of the crumpets. Anywho went the bagel having eaten far too much in Japan and on JAL the previous day/night as well and thought it was very tasty.

Excellent service on QF 295 Sydney to Bangkok. Finnair plane and crew in Finnair uniforms and likely Bangkok based. And they were exceptional.

Gin Spritz. Excellent







The soup, and Sav Blanc.


One of the nicest meals I've had on a plane. Chicken was excellent.



I didn't like the look of the pre landing meal so not long after takeoff and the main meal service, crew gathered a sample of all the snack available and brought them to me so they didn't get taken by others. Very thoughtful.



The Finnair seats. I loved them. MRP didn't. Said it reminded him of reading in bed which he never does. But I do.

CBR-BNE this afternoon on an E190. A quite tasty lamb pie with mushy peas and ‘crispy’ (not) potatoesVoyager Estate semillon sav blanc or two also very nice.
