    In all the times I've flown this in C I don't think I have ever not had hanagoyomi, so I can't comment on the other choices. Hanagoyomi, however, I love. The Japanese meal options on NZ ex-Japan pale in comparison.

      Hanagoyomi looks very pretty. But what is in it exactly?

          Thanks for providing the menus, SQLPP. I should have done a proper search myself.

          Menu looks good. Expensive stuff. I'd strongly advise my mom to eat that. The choice is up to her really, since she may not appreciate Japanese. Besides after a whole week of Japanese, she might be rather sick of it. I'm sat in Y so I can't help her finish up. Maybe I'd ask her to doggy bag them for me.

            Hmm I thought one in F and one in C? Or is that one way only? And the other way around would be one in C and one in Y?
            Well if your mom's most likely doesn't want to eat, you can switch with her during meal service. You go seat on her C seat and enjoying the hanagoyomi, and your mom seat on your Y seat while she enjoys her yor Y meals.
            And BTW, since she is in C, it means that she can have those udon at the NH C lounge... also some sushi and other stuff to make her full...

              Yes the Hanagoyomi meal was indeed delicious (thanks again SQ LPP).

              Oh and by way of concluding my OP - the Unagi was v nice. A bit light but tasty and interesting nonetheless.

                You are very welcome.
                It was a pleasure... And yes, I had a wonderful seatmate on that flight! May be that's why I did not have anything to eat.

                I always like unagi don. I remember those days I spent in Tokyo and had unagi every day!

                  SQ12 - one in F, one in C. SQ631 - one in C, one in Y.
                  Nah, no point swapping seats and meals. I can eat a lot in the NH C lounge myself.

                  We're staying near Shin-juku. Do you recommend staying at the airport hotel the night before for the morning flight? Or should we just take the first bus/train out the same morning?

                  The last time jhm took this same SQ flight to BKK (I was on NH! You're right, I always prefer other airlines), we took the earliest bus from the Westin.

                    SQ 631?
                    Not my choice! Can't you take other nonstop flight? SQ11 or SQ637?

                      Unagi is an aphrodisiac. I was eavesdropping to a conversation in a Jap restaurant and the lady said it increases the sex drive in men, so it is very popular with Japanese men.

                      A certain gentleman also told me that the eel is rather long and slithery and reminds him of something too.

                        I checked for award availability last week but still nothing! I'm not too bothered anyway. Mom can visit BKK airport.

                          Hmm it is definitely a myth. It doesn't work, I believe. That's why it's available to be consumed on board. But so far I have not seen any oysters on board!

                            Hmm someone just corrected me. SQ serves baked oysters as an appetiser.

                                Enjoy Shinjuku. Take the early bus (if a weekday) or train (weekend).
