Isn't that like saying "I ordered a steak, but I'm a vegetarian and hated it. Meat is an acquired taste".? I don't know why you chose it in the first place.

I ended up ordering the pork tendons. It's not what I expected (just because I didn't realize what pork tendons are like), but I enjoyed the dish. It's a pretty light dish (a lot more mushrooms than pork), but that's not a bad thing after the different courses ahead. I would give it a solid B+.

Yes, the burger is really good!

I felt bad for leaving as much tendon on my plate as I did, but I couldn't make it through more than one medium-sized piece. I agree that the marinade and the mushrooms are solid.

I really enjoyed the vermicelli soup as the pre-arrival dish, and the burger was great. Easy to get refills on wine and champagne. I was perhaps overly harsh about my food choice for the main meal, but everything else about the food service was excellent.

Have you tried the spicy scallop? I'm somewhat torn between that and the seabass.

I feel like the seabass could either be excellent or a complete mess drowned in overpowering sauce.

Time for me to order. Any votes for the Szechuan Lobster Tail?

longtimeflyin

No I haven't but I've always only have had rubbery scallops on planes so I never bother anymore!

I am leaning towards the tenderloin or tiger prawns, as well as the pan fried lamb loin on the second flight.

Thanks in advance!

thefiverivers, when do you fly the YVR-TPE leg? I'm on the 29th and still deciding too! ... well not the breakfast, that's nutella. I refuse to grow up, nutella will always win.

Nice! I always factor in hit or miss aspect, but good to know! I am torn 3 ways for dinner - chicken, prawns or tenderloin. Omelette is the breakfast runner up, but I dunno that I can be swayed there.

I'd suggest this: Szechuan Lobster Tail, Sweet and Sour Pork Served with Egg Fried Rice, Mixed Vegetables
