Great service bothways, great captain, tour of the plane.

I don't even remember a mid flight snack, just the breakfast upon arrival, at 4pm, which made me laugh. The sky club in NRT was GREAT, showers, and tons of iMACS to use throughout the club.
And don't forget the plates and plates and plates of sushi.

Those long flights are all challenged, in regards to meal type and timing. With a 14hr flight going half-way around the world, sunrise/sunset get kinda strange. I figure they just plan on dinner to start, and breakfast to finish, no matter what time start/finish are, for the local time.
