Wonderful!
Pros:

I have many food restrictions and am on an anti-inflammatory diet. The chefs were very accomodating and understanding to take up my requests for specific meals. It was a pleasure not to have to worry about what's in my meals.

Cons:

My flight was very early and I could not have a proper breakfast. I did have a great pack to go but it would have been nice to have more options of freshly made breakfast options.
