Not all crews will zigzag through the cabin, but they still offer priority.
If you're the only SE, they don't need to ask you until there's only 1 of something left. If that never happens, you "technically" haven't been given priority, but you still get what you want, which is the whole point.

Did you get your first choice?

Yes, I posted this in the other thread on Jan 8:
I just picked random dates in January and looked at 3 different Asia routes. Some have menus showing for the ex-Canada sectors but so far none are available for departures from NRT, TPE or HKG. Also no menus for departures from FRA or LHR, but again, menus are listed ex-Canada.
Weird.
And this comment also appears:
*Information is available for flights until Jan 31, 2019. February menu will be available on Jan 24, 2019. All times are shown in airport local time.

Always more helpful if you specify a route and post the menu you are looking at.
So I picked BNE for you
Seems pretty clear to me, and it was on my BNE flight
This is the actual menu for YVR - SYD and BNE for Jan 12 2019

That note is most definitely on the menu I'm looking at. I just skimmed over it to see what mains were being offered.
FT, this is your daily reminder that WTME is an idiot.

Terrible system. Couldn't find the menu for YVR->TPE. While looking at YVR->HKG I noticed TPE in the URL as well. And still no luck with the other way around.

Yes, it's been that way for a long time. Same menu code for similar routes ex-Canada, as posted a few times in this thread.
AC seems to have chosen not to post menus for the return flights. Perhaps they can't due to last minute catering changes at outstations. Just guessing.

How are Hawksworth menu items? I will probably stick with the fish or chicken. The steak tends to be a bit heavier and will sit there.

I have never seen it on my TPAC and TATL (200+) menus when returning to Canada ever since Hawksworth was introduced to the menus a few years ago.

Funny, I've never noticed that. Sample size of 25 or so. I don't tend to order Hawksworth stuff so don't miss it if it isn't there.
