Maybe I would describe the meal in short words – Fly British, eat British (which does not imply that British food is bad, quiet the opposite, but British tend not to be able to cook something that is, well, not British).

Nice report overall and I found it useful to read as I'm flying BA First in 1A next week to HKG.
I have to pull you up on one thing though. You're confusing British (or English?) cuisine with airline cuisine. They're two entirely different things. Contrary to popular belief, Brits can actually be darn good cooks!
Presumably you've heard of Jamie Oliver, Richard Corrigan, Anthony Worrall-Thompson, Marco Pierre White et al?
Anyway, apart from that, good first report, thanks for your valuable contribution to FT.
Oh, how did you find the comfort and privacy in 1A, and what about the forward view?
