I forget whether meal at business class is served from the back (row 7) to the front cabin or the other way. Does Anyone remember? I want finish meal quickly without waiting too long to be served and try to get some sleep after meal. Thanks for any input in advance.

On AKL-HKG last week it was 'fast dine' first, followed by 1-7 for regular dining.
Fast Dine is an abbreviated meal service to maximise sleep - at both ends of the flight

As a GE I have in more recent flights been discretely asked for my preference, no matter what Business seat I have been in.
Before that it appeared to be front to back ...

That's 7 rows in the 777 forward zone - 28 seats or thereabouts - there have been reports of them running out of options rather early in recent times.

When I was flying NZ C/J TT without GE, I rarely got my first choice.
Having said that, I had a chicken meal in C/J which I thought was pretty average. Economy was serving butter chicken which I did get to try on another flight and it was much tastier.

In my experience, GE's have always been asked for their preference first and served first. Then it's been from front to back. Flying back from Brisbane to Auckland last month, they ran out of chicken by the time they hit Row 5.
