A package of biscuits was distributed as part of the first beverage service. A package of Plane Cheesy crackers was distributed on the flight between Denver and Casper. Drink: Ginger Ale Comments: United offered 3 different snack boxes for sale. This was called the "Quick Pick". The price of the snack box may be a bit high although a package of beef jerky is about USD $2. The combination of beef jerky and salsa was odd, but there was no other food item flat enough to eat the salsa. The bread sticks and cheese whiz would not have served any utility in consuming the salsa. And I refused to use my fingers. Salsa without chips of any kind is really an affront. I don't remember the contents of the other offerings, except that one contained slices of pepperoni. The little cheesy crackers that were served on the flight between Denver and Casper fine - they were rather cute, too.

Everything else was good...last meal I'll have on LAX-HNL before Buy on Board starts in June. Plus since plane was 2/3 full, I got 2 meals!

Aircraft and class: Boeing 767 - Economy Leisure Trip Meal Type: Preordered Vegetarian Dinner Contents: Wheat Roll (cold), Red Lentil and Couscous with Curried Vegetables and an unidentifiable sauce (perhaps a weak attempt at curry), Iceberg Lettuce salad, Babaganoush (my girlfriend's came with pita, they forgot mine), Vinaigrette Dressing Drink: Water, soon followed by soft drink. Comments: Actually not all that bad, and relatively large, but the sauce and babaganoush had a weird synthetic taste.

Comments: A very good meal, although nothing that made me say "wow" - even on the longest international nonstop route out of Dulles on United in Business class. I guess wow is now only reserved for United First on long routes... a true shame cost cutting has lowered intl Biz class to "good." The senior flight attendants were very accomodating and friendly.

Aircraft type & class: Boeing 747-400, Business Business or leisure trip: Leisure Meal type: Dinner Contents of the meal: From the menu: “Japanese Obento selection; An appetizer of spicy vinegared horse mackerel, shrimp with lily root, shiitake mushroom stuffed egg, simmered sweet potato and udon noodles. A main course of silver cod in soy mirin sauce with shimeji mushrooms, vegetables, ginkgo nuts and steamed rice. Dessert: Chocolate Paris-Brest.” I also had a dinner roll. Other choices were: “To begin: Crabmeat, proscuitto, mozzarella and tomato appetizer; Cucumber wakame salad with vinaigrette. Garden salad; Asian sesame ginger dressing. Main course: Filet mignon with New Orleans seasoning; Garlic mashed potatoes, vegetable medley and pomodoro sauce or Cashew-crusted chicken with natural jus; Sage and onion stuffing soufflé with broccoli florets. Dessert: International cheese selection; Brie and Marble Cheddar cheese.” Drink: Sake for me, Jack and Pepsi for my friend; nuts for us both. Green tea with the main course. Comments: Nice Obento; I liked the silver cod so much NRT-SIN I had a different version of it on this flight. It’s always fun to open up the little containers and see what’s inside. The dessert looked like a chocolate bagel but was actually very tasty. Unfortunately the crew was less attentive than their Asian counterparts but not really terrible.

Other choice: “Fresh seasonal fruit plate with creamy yogurt.” Drink: Water, coffee, and orange juice. Comments: Not bad but not great. The sauce was kind of sloppily applied and the hash browns were more like country-style potatoes. Also, the fruit wasn’t quite ripe.

Dessert: Opera cake.” Also came with a roll/butter. The other choice was “Capellini all’Amatriciana; Pasta with a pancetta bacon and tomato sauce.” Drink: A bit of champagne (Billecart-Salmon, I think) and a scotch and water on the rocks, then coffee with dessert. Comments: The beef was a tiny bit tough but had a nice flavor, with the sweet mango giving a good contrast to the peppery meat. The opera cake was delicious.

Main Course: Hainanese chicken and rice with oyster sauce; Braised bok choy, chili sauce with fresh ginger and a fresh seasonal fruit appetizer.” I chose a croissant. Other choices were “Mozzarella scrambled eggs; Chicken sausage patty, tomato gratiné, roasted new potatoes and a fresh seasonal fruit appetizer” and “Continental breakfast; Breakfast pastries, fruit, yogurt and cereal.” Drink: Coffee, orange juice, and water. Comments: This is my favorite breakfast on United. The chicken was super-tender under the skin and the chili sauce provided a nice zing. Excellent fruit bowl, too, with huge grapes. The croissant was a bit rubbery but not bad. The service was again very nice.

Comments: Pretty basic. You don’t have to get up and get it. Longer Asian flights (e.g. West Coast to Shanghai, Hong Kong) have a more substantial snack like noodles or a sandwich.

Drink: Cocktails before lunch – Johnnie Walker Black and a big bottle of Crystal Geyser water, given to me by the flight attendant on the previous flight from SFO-LAX. Ice water and white wine with lunch. Comments: This actually was pretty good for an economy meal. The chicken was moist and tasty, the shrimp and melon tasted fresh and the cheesecake was simple but tasted like actual cheesecake. The salad was a bit of a disappointment; it was just a pile of lettuce leaves.

Drink: Coffee, ice water Comments: This tasted OK but the crust was a sort of dry. It came in a branded, foil package that was a little bit tacky. Nice fruit bowl, though. I stashed the oatmeal raisin bar in my bag to eat later. Rating 1-10 (worst-best): 6 – it was hot but not much beyond that.

Dinner, filet with applewood smoked bacon demi-glace, ice cream Drink: Pepsi, G&T, Keenwood California Chardonnay Comments: The breakfast omelett was really very good, served with pork sausage and oven-roasted tomatoes. The dinner was not good, the smoked bacon sauce was far too strong, the meat tasteless (perhaps that's why they make the sauce so strong). The crew were excellent the purser could earn a living as a dj or doing ad or film voice overs as his voice was so smooth - a kind of Dutch/American Terry Wogan, he took every first and business class food order - for both services - addressing ever passenger by name - impressive.

Other choice was a deli sandwich, which looked like a mess. It was the standard UA salad with lettuce, strips of ham, smoked turkey, american and swiss cheese, hard boiled egg, olives, and cherry tomatoes with honey dijon vinagerette dressing. After that we were given the usual warm cookie. Drink: Bloody mary, and 1999 Crow Canyon Cabernet [quite good] and then coffee later with the cookie. Comments: There has been quite a bit of bashing lately regarding [US] domestic FC service. This flight was an exception to 'the rule'. Seems like UA is at least trying to maintain their dignity, especially for a flight shorter than two-hours! Of course it always helps to be on an A-319 with only eight-seats in FC for more personal service, as opposed to 24-seats on a B-757.
