Lately my attempts to pre-order have lead to a vicious circle - give the name and reservation code - my reservation - give the name and reservation code... How to do it properly nowadays (flying to ORD and back soon)?

This has worked for me when logged in and going to the pre-order from my reservations. I think I did it just over a week ago for HEL-ORD.

I have an upcoming HEL-BKK in October and I would love to get some advises regarding the (preorder) meals;
Has anyone tried these menu's by Sasu Laukkanen? Are these menus served on the BKK-route?

Tastes better than it looks and I know there are many that may feel sick, but you can even eat the skin since it's heavily fried. Yummy!
The soup was decent as well.
Osso Bucco and quinoa can be a heavy choice and I am not a fan of veal meals. A matter of taste after all.
