Comments: Entrée orders were also taken from back to front, but they were running short of the chicken entrée. Then the appetizer trolley rolled out… appetizers and dessert are all on the tray. Bread basket offers some nice warmed pita bread, as well as garlic bread, pretzel rolls, and soft rolls. Entrées were served next. For appetizers, I pick the seafood one with two shrimps and two scallops, and they are quite nice. Everything is fresh. For entrée, I have the vegetarian option, but it is a Chinese mixed vegetable dish and the beancurd roll is missing.

Comments: Simply wonderful. I like their service in Economy, but in Business, you feel even better. After I had some small sandwiches in the lounge, a light continental breakfast was enough to fill me up. I loved the canapés and the traditional mezze. There were four main courses to choose from - the iranian chicken was a good option, as well as the coffee cake for dessert. Huge drink selection (even champagne cocktails are served). I hope to fly with EK again soon !

218 Breakfast and Mushroom Omelette: This was definitely the highlight of this flight. There was a choice of "American Style Pan Cakes" or "Creamy Mushroom Omelette" of which I chose the latter. It was served with some fresh fruit and a hot croissant plus coffee or tea, of course. The Omelette was "served with pan-fried Nuernberger sausage, roasted Roma tomato and fried potato wedges". It may be just me, but I just love those airline breakfasts with these pale, tasteless sausages and everything but fried tomatoes aside but find that you hardly get these anymore on many airlines so I was very pleased to get it on this flight :-) Actually, the sausage wasn't that bad and the mushrooms and omelette were quite tasty for an airline brakfast and this time around it was really enough even for me. Very nice indeed, Rating 10 out of 10.


217


216 Snack and Beef Wrap: On this very long 13 hours plus flight we got served some snacks in between. There was a choice of a vegtable wrap and a stir-fried beef wrap and some cakes and chocolate bars. The wrap was very very tasty but way too tiny as always on Emirates. Rating 6 out of taste because the ridicuously small size.


215 Chicken Sandwich: I asked for some more to eat after the main meal and got this very nice and tasty chicken sandwich. Nice service indeed and the sandwich was much better than the usual cold and dry things you expect. Very tasty with loads of chicken, some nice dressing and fresh salad on it. Rating 10 out of 10.


214


213


212 Lunch, Roast Chicken and Sides: I ordered a special non-seafood meal because I can't take fish or seafood so I got another appetizer instead of the "Chilli Prwans" mentioned in the printed menue (some nice cold sliced duck on salad). Apart from that the meal was the same as the Chicken Choice in the menue: Nice fresh salad with dressing, main meal "Roasted Chicken breast served with dried tomato cream sauce, accompanied with sliced carrots, green aspargus spears and herbed mashed potatoes", dessert "Tangerine Gateaux served with raspberry coullis". The whole meal was very nice actually, though it left me hungry, as always on a plane :-) Rating: 8 out of 10.


211 Starter: Any drink and little salty snacks. Chose a beer which turned out to be South African which I found strange, but tasted quite nice. Some airlines nowadays even save on giving you this little snack after take-off on Economy, so it's worth mentioning it.

Trip: Moving to Australia for good :-)
Camera and brand: Sony Cybershot DSC-P73
Additional information: Entertainment and Amentity: Not really what airlinemeals is about but I thought it might be of some interest: On the new non-stop flights from Dubai to Sydney on the long-reach A340-500 in Economy you get very nice amenity kits in a nice reusable little bag containing a little comb, socks, earplugs, a toothbrush and eye-shades (the latter two not on the picture beacause I used them before taking it). Plus, you have "ICE", the very best entertainment system on any economy class I've ever been on, even much better than the one Singapore Airlines offers. The really thick entertainment guide lists hundreds of movies, TV-series, games and a huge collection of music including all UK charts number ones since 1952 which was really amazing. Together with the really nicely designed new Airbus and the additional seat pitch it made this incredibly long flight feeling much shorter than some 5 hours flight on a cramped and old 747. I've been to Australia pretty often before flying from Europe and with this new non-stop service from Dubai I can only very much recommend this choice, it makes this long trip so much easier, especially when combined with a nice two nights stop-over in Dubai like I did. Altogether, I would give a 11 out of 10 for the entire flight though I normally am not easy to please as an airline passenger :-)

Comment: Despite the presentation which could have been done on a plate rather than crammed into a serving dish - the beef was tender and very nice (I moved the gooseliver), potatoes done just right with that just cooked through but slightly firm to the bite texture, vegetables - once again just cooked - not raw texture.

Comment: Although presentation wise it would hardly set the world on fire (always find the crockery and table clothes on Emirates a little old fashioned), taste wise it was good. Salmon cooked just right, prawn nice size. Bread bought around in a basket and there were about 5 or 6 choices of different varieties. They also came around several times for extra. Salad fresh and okay if a little unadventurous. Note the plastic knife and fork into Heathrow. We flew from Australia and on different segments the cutlery varied (from plastic knife and metal fork, to all metal, to all plastic). Drinks (wine, soft drinks , cocktails) were serve before the entree with small canapes. overall, a good tasteful start to a nice meal.
