Um...JAL is running out of ideas and have to change this every 6 months now? And why YVR from Jun instead of Mar?

Well my wife will be happy about this one. Cool
You know they will run out of idea's, when they start putting AIR MCDONALDS or AIR TACOBELL on the flight.

I liked the Tokyo.Soup Stock. But the Most Burger was not a hit with me. I wonder if Air KFC will return as well....

Compared to the Cathay bacon cheese burger, the inflight Mos burger is not really up to the standards of a business class snack. Let alone a first class. They should bring in a proper burger instead....

The Business class snack menu ex-North America is pathetic these days.

Well they are different styles of burger. And CX only load like 4 burgers total for the flight? You will be lucky to get one without fighting for it. Anyway I was referring to the AIR SERIES dishes, not just this one.

I don't even understand why they would go about having this press release in English. MOS BURGER food isn't really suited to the non-Japanese palate. I've had it once and if I have it a second time, it's because I have no better options.

ANA's cheeseburger is OK.

You don't enjoy it doesn't mean all non-Japanese won't either. MOS BURGER has overseas stores and they are quite popular in HK for example.

That's true. It's just different - in a way that makes this hamburger enthusiast unhappy

(To be fair to MOS BURGER, I think many fast food places fail to make good hamburgers due to cost and time pressures)

As an American, I can assure you that MOS BURGER has many foreign fans.
Their product is of high quality, and I love the taste.

I always make a trip to MOS when I am in Tokyo, and also in Bangkok---There is one in the Central World shopping center.

IN-N-OUT burger is my favorite, but MOS BURGER is excellent as well!
