Qantas Business Class meals & menus

[RooFlyer]

The difference is the crockery! One setting looks fresh and plenty of ‘white space’, the other is somewhat boring. I’ll take substance over style.

And the proper wineglass Vs a tumbler; the salt & pepper grinders Vs paper sachets; set table Vs tray; butter; selection of breads ..... . What sort of substance are you after? In my case dried out spaghetti on Bolognese Vs a nice juicy steak with condiments.

And I haven't mentioned the comparable wine selections.

As for the other stuff - sorry, you are flailing now. ?One? ?two? flight and you are an expert on the crew work load, noise etc. Did you know that there are more QR crew than on QF per pax on comparable craft (there's posts here somewhere on that)? How many crew it takes to prepare and serve the 'out of hours' meals (a couple). I don't think you are going to be in danger because of 'dine on demand'.

Apologies - we’ve veered right off topic but I did try and get it back on a few posts ago!

Yeah, dine on demand is just such a fantastic thing.
I love being able to swap meals around to suit my patterns. For instance I’m not a huge fan of most breakfast items and if I’ve just spent a couple of hours in the Al Safwa having a big meal the last thing I want on an overnight flight is to have my main meal. I’ll just get something light and watch a movie, have a wine or two and maybe catch some sleep. Then when breakfast is being served in the morning that’s when I’ll have my steak of big meal.
Can’t say I’ve ever noticed the noise or being disturbed, I’ll close the door and put my headphones on and I’m oblivious to what’s going on.

Maybe better to start a separate thread for QR J meals rather than derailing this one.

Finally, the pre-landing meal of thai fishcakes and some kind of herbed rice also sensational, I think possibly _too_ flavourful for some people...

In my experience these have always been hair-droppingly salty.

Definitely was on the salty side, but I find a lot of airline food ultra bland so that + the heavy hit of fish sauce in it, a welcome reprieve for my chardonnay soaked palate haha
