Part II:
Meal service:
A la carte is the theme on EY dining in first and business class. Dinner and breakfast are both offered, and I highly recommend future first time EY flyers to time their meals accordingly. Don’t be timid to use the call button! The F/As will refill beverages but do not really ask you about meals. If you want breakfast, you should really order before going to sleep. I choose a full four course dinner after takeoff and a continental breakfast prior to arrival.
Shortly after takeoff, your drink of beverage was served with a hot canapé dish – a grilled salmon and prawn brochette and a grilled vegetable skewer. Delicious and goes well with the Pink Champagne – Cattier Brut Rose NV!
