Meal: Lunch - Cold cuts, salad, dried fruit strips, pineapple, a muffin, and for the main course, it was a choice of batter-covered fish with steamed rice or spaghetti with a meat sauce.
Drink: Chinese tea, beer, soft drinks
Comments: Departure was at 1055. Being used to the US system of starving passengers on short haul flights, I was pleasantly surprised to be served lunch. There was even a choice of entrees. Very good service by a friendly crew. Note on the return leg of Beijing/Xi'an that departed in the afternoon, we were given only a bag of mixed nuts.
Watching everyone wolf down their lunch, it obviously must have been delicious but I had just had a big spread for breakfast so didn't really into it.

Meal: Lunch - Seasoned Beef, Broccoli, Rice, Semi-Sweet Bread, Caesar Salad, Mixed Fruit
Drink: Mineral Water
Comments: The beef was relatively well seasoned, and the proportions of rice/broccoli/beef was just right, but not quite big enough to fill my stomach. The "sweet" bread is notoriously bland and boring, consistent with all the other reviews. Salad, what can go wrong with that (besides from rotten leaves)? Fruit was pretty good on my plate, but for my sister's plate, the grapes were rotted. Water, not much to say...

Contents of Meal: Choice of either chicken spagaetti or fish rice. sides include salad, roll and butter and canned pineapples. salad was not bad cos the lettuce was crisp enough and the thousand island's dressing was nice too :) fish had funny taste ( maybe cos it was freshwater fish) and was not hot enough. Chicken spagaetti came in too small a portion and I was still hungry after finishing the meal.
Drink: coke for sis and sprite for me :)
Rating: 6 for fish rice and chicken spagaetti
Comments: This time round the service was better and the plane was freezing cold. ( its better to be cold than hot and sticky) I realise that the air stewardresses have better attitudes than the air stewards. and thein-flight entertainment needs help too.

There were two choices for the hot dish. Either chicken with noodles or pork with rice. The rest were a salad with separate Thousand Island dressing, a prepacked bread roll, chunks of melon, a packet of 'Blue Diamond' almonds, a prepackaged water
Drink: coffee, tea, soft drinks. beer
Comments: What disgusting main meals! They did not look too bad, but the pork rice tasted of plastic only and the chicken noodles tasted really bland! The 'Waterman' plastic-tasting water was the same. This did not help our appetites! The salad was ok. The lettuce strips were crisp, at least. The Thousand Island dressing was a bit too sweet. The roll was soft, even though it was cold. The melon chunks were fine. The cold snack on our outbound flight was much better!

The cold roast beef was not too tough. The chicken slices were a bit funny. The layered cake was soft and not dry and was not too sweet. The 'Waterman' water was disgusting. It tasted of the plastic of the container!! I noticed that China Eastern has improved the looks of their trays. Not a bad effort.
