Hand-run, plated-on-board entrees are MUCH nicer and more elegant (and even taste better) than preplated entrees in warming dishes, IMHO.

Yes, they are plated in J class on the 77W. Its one of the reasons, in addition to the 52 seats, the FA's hate it with only one extra in J over the 777.

Hand-run vs. cart, however, depends on the crew.
