Regarding the SQ 12 menu, I cant say I ate a lot of it. Everything I had was good but I probably only had half of the courses. I skipped the breakfast altogether as I was too full still. Hey, a whole can of caviar will do that to you!
The flight attendants on both segements to/from LAX (SQ 11 and 12) were encouraging me to eat the second meal. The attendant on SQ 12 explained that I was probably just feeling bloated. She said that is how she feels after such a long flight. That's exactly how I felt but I had never heard anyone say that before. She said that as soon as she is at the hotel she is starving again. Long story short, I still did not eat breakfast and as she predicted I was starving by the time I hit the First Class Lounge (United) at LAX. Anyone else feel that way for the second meal?

The food lover in me always goes for all meals, big or small. Sometimes I squeeze in a snack too, like how I finished a bowl of wantan noodles midflight on SQ19.
