Again the satay saved the day. The soup was basically tomato soup with chicken cubes. Croutons were yummy, although nice, the chicken cubes gave it a canned feeling. The fillet looked much better than it tasted. Beef was dry and tastless but everything else around it was good. It is possible to have good steak on the plane, I've had it. Bad luck with beef on SQ so far (unless it is on a satay stick). Chestnut cake was nice...but by that time....I've had enough. Also metal knives issued (+1). Service was ok, perhaps slightly down from the other flights. I had what seem to be a Japanese flight attendant serving me most of the time, she was the only one in all my SQ raffles flights who did not address me by name. She seemed quite worried, as if each request I made was treated as a complaint which wasn't so. Maybe she seemed afraid of me. Don't know why, I am a nice guy and easily pleased. Quite unusual considering all Japanese I had met on my holiday were extremely nice. Anyway she was not bad and she did not affect my rating on the meal.
