During meal time, we wait for the crew to bring our meals like when you are on coach class( I have missed meals by falling asleep in coach, lol) or we can have the meal on our own time? Is there a button we can press near our seat to call the attendant?
We are 3 including a 22 months on his own seat.
Thanks! Sorry for sounding dumb!
Baggage allowance can be found with the following link. Business class is permitted two bags only at 70lbs each. Additional bags may be allowed if you have status:

At the airport you will have separate check-in counters, a lounge and priority boarding. I'm not sure whether there are special security arrangements at ORD for CX business class.
Meals for business class are not 'on demand'. You will be served a meal shortly after take-off, another main meal later, and a comprehensive snack menu for in between meals (these are on demand).
However - if you are traveling with a child/infant, cabin crew may stagger you meal service so one adult can look after the child at a time. Discuss your needs with cabin crew when they take your orders.
There is a call button for service. Cathay Pacific encourages you to use this (unlike some US carriers).
