And no I don't like lobsters...

OTOH, if you do BTC, you can (politely
) request an item from the regular menu instead--the crew is normally happy to accomodate such requests.

Hello all,
Any idea of what they will have on the FRA-SIN flights in F on the 21st (regular meals) late flights?
Will it be two main meals or one main meal and breakfast?
The flight leaves FRA about midnight and gets in at 5.15 pm if no delays due to the air show.
Is it a good idea that i BTC the Lobster Thermidor and have the regular menu as well
this will be a lo-o-o-o-ong flight...
I would certainly not mind having both!

I had not taken this flight for a very long time. And I did not see anyone posted the previous menu for this particular flight. But looking at the departure time, which is similar like the one from LHR, you will get supper then full breakfast before landing in SIN. And I believe now SQ offers a mid-flight snack menu. The supper should be appetiser, salad, soup, main courses, cheese, and dessert. Usually, i would be hungry before landing in SIN, since the meals will be served around 2 or 3 hours before landing. So, sometimes I opt for the regular menu for the first meal, and my BTC will be my full main breakfast.
Enjoy your flight and the airshow!

SQ325 has dinner and breakfast. I think I posted the menu on the menu thread last year.

Well, so I booked the Wild Mushroom and Chirozo Rissoto for SQ862 SIN-HKG, and the Lamb Chops for SQ227 SIN-MEL. Are these any good?
