Is there any point pre-selecting the meal? Are there any choices available online that won't be available on the day off? Or is it the same exact selection as what I would get from the onboard menu?
There may be a special dish you cant get onboard, for example the lobster I had recently DOH-HKG was not avail had I not preselected it. There was a lobster roll available on the normal menu but not the dish I got.
If you see something you like go ahead and select it but once onboard it really wont matter too much as far as the regular dishes as you can let them know in advance everything you want. In both Q Suites & QR F I was able to get everything I wanted except one item, on QF F actually. It was the scrambled eggs and they only catered 1 and the other Pax took it. That was a bummer but I went with the omelette for my eggs choice.
Btw, that French toast is horrible. Total joke. And not b/c its a more of a bread pudding but simply b/c it is disgusting. DL's bread pudding French toast while not great is far better.
