On one CX flight they didn't want to refrigerate my things so they gave me a large bag of ice and put it in the overhead (no jokes)
Not surprised.
SQ and JJ both proactively offered to refrigerate and heat up food.  CX is just awful in this regard.

I know it is F, but is that what you want while flying 15 hours?

Yup. It's our tradition, Mongolian beef from Chopstix prior to every F flight. Finger-lickin good.

We need an SSR BYOK for bookings.  ;) I love the Acronym!

It would fit in perfectly.

It is. Chopstix is at or near the top of Chinese joints. Haven't yet had opportunity to try NKS.

Was successful with LH, OS & UA.
UA F warmed & served me the meal before takeoff (we had a 1 hour delay in FRA).

No luck w/LY. "fire hazard"

CX is the worst when it come to rules.

Possibly, but I had a pretty harsh experience with KE.

They woke us up 4 hours into the flight saying my kid can't get her own seat since we didn't pay for it.

3 days later I get a call that they never deducted the miles for the infant...

SO - with BYOK does everyone order the KSML to use the flatware?
I remember when a coke was a nickel, and you could buy VRs in OD.
