Pralines

[DinkumDave]

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what is the on-board etiquette for pralines?

When the lady sticks the plate loaded with pralines in front of you, how many are you supposed to take?

Usually I am so stuffed by this point that it is not an issue. It is a struggle to manage just the one.

But I do wonder, what would happen if you took two? Or how about 3 - one milk, one plain, one white chocolate? At what point would you get a dirty stare from the FA?

Any of the experienced travellers on this board have a praline story to tell?

As for chocolate I like the toblerone bars you get

Now you are talking

These are available from the self service bar on A380 flights, correct?

I've never been on a 380, but it would certainly be toblerone heaven for me

Are the toblerones available on any other flights?

I don't particularly care for pralines.

That said, I'm happy to be getting my after-dinner chocolates.

And I must say I've been getting my satay save for the few months last year during the height of the "nut or no nut" brouhaha.

I normally take two - one milk and one dark. Once in a while, the FA would even encourage me to take more!

Like you I am full by the end of the meal. I take one ( the chocolate powdered truffle ) knowing that they are available the entire flight at the self service bar.

So I help myself later in the flight when I walk...... to burn calories from the meal

I only take one usually, maximum two.

I made the exception only for choccies on LX J last time btw SIN-BKK and only when I'm one of the last to be served and the entire box seems mostly untouched, then I take three.

LX Lindt for the win...

As you can see, I was restraining myself

New Pralines

I've noticed since Dec that SQ serves new pralines.

LS told me that they are no longer made in-house.

These were eaten on recent SQ11 NRT-SIN..



Not only yummy but much more variety.

I've been on 3 flights and they're always different
