Pre-selected the Japanese Autumn Meal which was far and above any of the western choices. Would highly recommend doing that. You need to do this prior to travel, either on line or over the phone, since they no longer carry it on board. Service was very good from a senior crew and is very comparable with most Asian carriers business class meal service. The Flagship Suites are much better however so that was why I went with AA. Overall a excellent experience.
