        Thanks, SQkid! Which SQ sector did you fly? I've always found SQ Y catering to be pretty good, especially the Asian/Indian selections. That said, sometimes the Western/International Y selections can be on the bland side.

        As for PEY catering, they really need to do more to differentiate it from Y...

          I flew to NRT and chose the Japanese meal and the fish served was very fishy also on the return flight they only had one choice available which is Penne pasta with salmon ,found the salmon piece to be pretty good and it was a large slice however it would have been better if the pasta was less bland.

            Thanks for that data point! I am surprised you encountered this on a SIN-Japan sector, because the Y meals on those sectors are normally quite impressive, given the competition from JAL and ANA, who have excellent catering. I've been quite impressed with Y catering on SIN-Japan sectors. (I even got fillet steak iin Y on one occasion!).

            I do agree that sometimes the international Y selections in SQ can be a little bland tasting. My impression is that SQ catering in Y for western cuisine goes for less cream/butter/cheese, and less strongly flavoured sauces compared to Western carriers, possibly because of Asian taste preferences. No idea if this is actually the case of course, just my impression eating many years of Y dishes on SQ.
