I heard the food is not good (and experiences it first hand) in J but it was actually not bad. For breakfast, just after I woke up a CC walked past collecting trays and asked if I wanted to eat. I just love the proactive service there.

Personally, I would prefer CX to NOT offer these services to OW EM in full B&W accordance with their training and recently it is increasingly the approach adopted by the crew (/pursers) as can be seen on CX secrets.
