    Food seems to be superior on EK. On my last trip ICN-SIN in F:

    1. Oxtail soup with a content only a third of the bowl. Couple of small strands of oxtail meat (you only need to swallow and biting not necessary). My memories of oxtail soup is more oxtail meat.

    2. Salad. Cheap greens with a couple of bread crumbs. At first I thought it was chicken.

    3. Satay. Was dry.

    4. Main course. Difficult choice to make...not because of good choices but choosing the best amongst the worst. Selected the prawn dish. 3 pieces of slightly above average sized prawns.

    5. Dessert. At least you have cheese cake. I have had chocolate ice cream with a couple of nuts.

    6. Appetitiser. No further need to emphasis the obvious.

    Had better F Class fare on regional flights last year. These days I just have the meals before boarding even when you travel in F Class Cabin. F Class service may after all not be the focus of the airline within six hours of travel time.

    Have had a wonderful Szechuan food in Shangri-La Hotel in Shanghai and excellent Beijing Duck in a small Wangfuqing's hotel in Beijing prior to two flights back to Singapore.

    Saving Grace: LSS and LS were excellent in their service but will stick to C Class Cabin next round but will just skip paying F Class as it is not worth the experience anymore.

      No cooling function in the personal minibar, so you would need to ask for ice from the FAs if you want your drinks cold.
      I think this is another EK gimmick like their showers.

      I look at all the drinks offered. I want them served with ice.

      What's the difference from calling FA and ordering the drink?
