Radzi 2 Report post Posted November 17, 2006 I've been joking with the flight attendants for a long time, when they ask me what I want for breakfast, I'll ask for roti canai. Today my dream comes true. Not exactly roti canai, but roti pusing. Close enough. Ofcourse, there is a different name for it, but it is a sensitive word and unmentionable onboard an aircraft.

Can we change the name to 'Roti Bomba'? Or is it unmentionable as well? Ali: "I'm with the police force. And you?" Abu: "Oh I'm with the BOMba!"

Radzi 2 Report post Posted November 18, 2006 (edited) It was breakfast on MH 2604 KUL-BKI, business class. Dhal gravy with sambal. Taste quite okay but slightly on the salty side and not too pedas to my standard. Edited November 18, 2006 by Radzi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan B. 5 Report post Posted November 18, 2006 Remember when the Nasi Lemak had huge prawns, then they save cost and had sotong sambal.....now even cheaper....roti "pusing". Fly MH...the flying mamak stall with 5 star hotel fares. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M N Fairizuan 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2006 Wahhh Roti Prata for breakfast. Now EY pax have 3-choice of meals instead of just two for breakfast. The introduction of roti prata onboard domestic flights few months ago was on trial/survey basis. Specially designed for hajj chartered flights. Plus, all non-meal domestic sectors now known as "juice(+ milo) and salted peanuts" sectors. Effective today, children flying onboard domestic flights ex-kul to borneo, or ex BKI/KCH to KUL, please request your children giveways from the cabin crew ok! (under 12 y/o only ) Playing cards are now available on selected flights ex kul to some china routes. Soon, on most international flights. Definately not cost saving, but good for pax.

Daniel Ng 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2006 I have also noticed some improvements in the KUL-PEN flight which I fly pretty often. They used to serve only the orange juice or milo. I was pleasantly surprised this time they served all pax peanuts...a nice touch for such a short flight in my opinion. Also their milo is highly popular....everyone seems to be going few rounds of that.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey Fairizuan, how's the portion of EY meal like on the pure domestic KUL/BKI flight ? Are they still serving bread and appetizer ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M N Fairizuan 0 Report post Posted November 20, 2006 (edited) The portion, still the same lor... As for bread roll... not for domestic sectors. Some goes to appetizer. Regarding EY Nasi Lemak, now it comes with chicken rendang together with sambal ikan bilis, sotong or udang. On some international sectors... they recently introduced a brand new n larger side plate for appetizer. MAS also will re-introduced EY caseroles on most of its international flights. Cabin Crew and Catering are now under new department called In-Flight Service Department. Starting next month, Jakarta became the newest night-stop city for D-Fleet (737) cabin and tech crews.

Regarding EY Nasi Lemak, now it comes with chicken rendang together with sambal ikan bilis, sotong or udang. Hmm ... Prawn & sqiud. Back in year 2000, MAS regularly served the seafood option (which was prawn) on its flight to SIN. Now we only got Fish ... On some international sectors... they recently introduced a brand new n larger side plate for appetizer. MAS also will re-introduced EY caseroles on most of its international flights. Wow, you should snap a picture so that we can see what's the difference like Cabin Crew and Catering are now under new department called In-Flight Service Department.

Regarding EY Nasi Lemak, now it comes with chicken rendang together with sambal ikan bilis, sotong or udang. I'm confused. I got some examples, which one is it ? (of the followings) MAS served this very small meal on its BKI/KUL sector in the late 90s (starting around 1997 or 1998) until the first-half of 2002. (no appetizer & bread roll on pure domestic flight ) A few months after TuneAir took over AK, MAS upgraded the meal on its BKI/KUL sector back to the size it was back in the early/mid 90s A while after MAS upgraded the meal back to the size it was (picture 2), instead of bread roll, MAS is giving the Beryl's chocolate (this chocolate is bad & they are still serving it now on MH80 & MH64) This one is the size of the meal served on MH BKI/KUL sector international flight (operated by widebodied planes). Everything is the same as "picture 2", only difference is the larger tray. Edited November 21, 2006 by Isaac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M N Fairizuan 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2006 On pure B737 domestic flight like KUL-BKI v.v, MH2_ _ _. You'll get this tray (1/2 Size Tray). - For B737 international flights via/from BKI like KUL-BKI-TPE/KHH or BKI-CAN/HKG.... MH 03_ _ _ or MH 0 0 _ _. You'll get this tray (2/3 Size Tray). - Onboard widebodied a/c doing a pure domestic flight i.e. KUL-BKI-KUL ... you'll also get this tray. - Pre-BTP...KUL-BKI-ICN-BKI-KUL for instance... you'll get this tray. - Also onboard wideboied a/c doing pure domestic flight like KUL-BKI-KUL (a single loading sector = catered ex-kul and ex-bki).

Sim Lim Shen 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2006 This is what I got during my recent SGN-KUL-SGN run : SGN-KUL on A332 Just an appetizer in a larger tray (is that what you are referring to Fairizuan), a main meal and roll & butter. We were also given a Beryl's Chocolate. However, we were given metal cutlery which was a surprise. KUL-SGN on B734 Only a main meal and a piece of tart is all we got. Even no bun.

Rozhan 0 Report post Posted November 21, 2006 (edited) instead of bread roll, MAS is giving the Beryl's chocolate (this chocolate is bad & they are still serving it now on MH80 & MH64) I second that! I don't think for the sake of 'supporting' a local manufacturer, passengers should be shoved with second rate products. They should get their receipe right first.

The tray is different too (blue instead of gray). Missing was the 'dessert'. KUL-SGN on B734 Only a main meal and a piece of tart is all we got. Even no bun. More of like the meal MH served between KUL/East M'sia. Luckilly it's just an 1.55hrs flight. MH really need to be consistent with their flight meals. Meal portion is always not the same, even on the same route <_> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
