Has anyone tried the eggs benedict for breakfast and the potato crusted sea bass for dinner?

XO Lobster with egg fried rice (BR35) would be a hard pass for me in the future. The rice was good, the sauce was good, but the lobster tail preparation left a lot to be desired. It was difficult to extract from the shell and didn't have much flavor.
OTOH, the beef burger "snack" was a far better meal. It was huge and came with nice fries (although a bit soggy).
I slept through breakfast, so no review on the congee unfortunately.

Had Eggs Benedict last year on JFK-TPE(same dish that is just rotated). The Hollandaise sauce and parma ham were nice, but the muffin was very chewy and tasted like cardboard(not surprising) and the poached egg was almost solid in the yolk(lumpy bits in the yolk already). The spinach they served it with was really good though.

This month inflight snack is pretty pathetic.
In August the roast duck dumpling noodle was excellent in both taste and portion (I actually had two on same flight)
This morning flight had fried rice noodle- while it tastes ok. But was both small and soggy.
Excellent roast duck dumpling noodle soup
Small and soggy- tasted ok.

Pre ordered my lobster meal online. Ended up getting 3 courses (appertizer, salad and the main course) with no fruit/ any dessert, no soup. Does it normally happen when we pre-order our main course online?

I preordered the lobster and it tasted much better than it looked. I did get the amuse bouche, appetizer, main dish and then was offered fruit with cake for desert.

Yeah, when it was placed in front of me I was not impressed but the flavor was there and was surprised the amount of actual lobster meat was in it. Improving the look is definitely something BR should look into with this "signature" dish.
