The food sounds delicious - I could demolish a lot on a longhaul flight!
No Calpis or Ramune ?
Not when I have been lucky enough to fly F on NH! They sometimes offer it on domestic flights so I guess it is not outside the realm of possibility...(Ramune is akin to creme soda in N.A., Calpis is a yoghurt kind of drink)
All I remember thinking about those flights was that I didn't want to get of the plane......and how exceptional the flights, food, and service was!

Mr HUGE, any confirmation or denial of the reports of drop in catering quality? Is the sky falling at TOF for no reason as usual?
Why in the world are you listening to the rubes over there when you can wade through all the noise and tap the wealth of knowledge over here?
Don't believe the invalidated reports on TOF. The food is the same and great as ever. Albeit the CP did overcook my steak, but I was waaaaay too exhausted to even care. Note: the quality of the meat was the same as before.
