On the whole, this seems positive, and I think pretty much everything seems like an improvement, except for Afternoon Tea. Even in CW you get the option to have an alternative to the sandwiches, so this really seems like a step backwards. Personally I think it should be a sort of hybrid afternoon tea with the cakes and scones for everyone and an option of sandwiches or a few alternative small plate dishes (hot and cold).

I actually think Virgin get it really right in J with their second meal 'Extra Bites' option - they have a range of small plates available and you can order as many as you want (when you want). I'll caveat that with the fact i haven't flown them since they introduced their new Afternoon Tea, so I have no idea how this fits with the Extra Bites.
