  • Eat and Sleep @ Milano

    The second half of 2012 (in fact, the whole year) has been incredibly difficult to maneuver ... after finally completing a key project, it is only right to bring my wife for a short trip before the year end mad rush begin again ... destination this time: Milan ... a boring place so don't ask me why

    CX flies daily to MXP ... being based in HK, a natural choice for us ... flight time today: 13 hours 31 mins

    The SQTalk obligator leg room shot inspired by no other than the great SQflyergirl

    Mine ..





    My misses' across the aisle





    My favourite CX signature drinks ... Cathay Delight ! sooooooo yummy





    Menu for the "supper" (the flight departs after midnight) ... CX was running a French wine promotion and the featured wine for the flight was from Chateau Giscours








    We opted to have the "supper" (the flight departs after midnight) together ... table setting:





    Although technically a "supper" service ... it is really very substantial ...


    bread basket




    Starting with caviar and Balik Salmon





    Next up ... salad for my lady ...





    And double-boiled Chinese soup and Chinese appetiser for me ...

    Main course for my lady .. some kind of meat which I forgot what was





    My Chinese main-course ... cod fish and steam kailan ... always a safe bet on CX





    Mixed berries as dessert for my lady .. and my comfort green bean soup ...








    Pralines





    Fresh orchid decorates the seat ... with mood lighting creating a very soothing ambience





    View across my berth





    The Shanghai Tang pjamas given to us today is blue in colour, I like it much better than the previous brown version ...





    By the time we done with the "supper", we were overflying Taiyuan in central China with more than 10+ hours to go ...





    The very attentive and attractive (shhhhh .. my wife is asleep) crew made my bed, and pampered me with soothing camomile tea with honey ... perfect way to end a day ...








    good night ....

      I must have slept for 7 hours straight ... the aroma of coffee awakes me





      About 1.5 hours before arrival, I ordered breakfast ... starting with bread basket, berries smoothie and fruit plate ...





      Cereal ... the milk container is very nice ...





      Dim sum ...





      view of snowy mountain





      love to know where is this place ... any idea?





      touching down at MXP soon ...








      SQ flying off while we are taxing to the gate ...





      Reflection ...
