Departed 8/12
Seats 3CD 

We left the lounge at T-40 and were at the gate 2 minutes later, just as boarding had commenced.  Special Suites boarding lane and we were soon walking down our private jetway to heaven. ;)   Didn't take any new cabin pics tonight, as we had the same seats as the week earlier.

Looking across the aisle at 3A.

Suite 3A

Meanwhile, back at 3CD.

Interesting that we had a completely new and much better amenity kit than on the outbound. Keepers for both of us.

Once in the air, more great Singapore service.  My first G&T of the night and the wonderful SQ satay.

Absolutely amazing, and almost as good as the Malaysia satay, which IMO is the best satay in the skies. 

And a second serving.

Showtime.

We decided not to book the cook tonight but try the regular menu.

Today's wine list, same as last week.  Other than the Dom and Krug, a rather uninspiring selection.

I started with the smoked duck breast.  Good, not great.

The seafood chowder was excellent, even better with another round of Dom.

Delicious salad, tomato, mizuna, rucola and frisée with sesame soya dressing.

We both had the pan roasted prawns with spicy tomato sauce, asparagus and sautéed linguine with julienne vegetables.  Was excellent although just a little too spicy for my liking.  More Dom solved that.

Delicious mango cheesecake with lemon lime sorbet, with fruit salad and mango coulis.

Just so all four grandkids would now have one, I asked for another set of teddy bears.

After dinner, we both decided to sleep, Mrs. SFO in 3D while I moved over to 4A.  We both slept for nearly 6 hours, Mrs. SFO better than me in 4A which suffers from being too close to the galley and galley noise and FA chit-chat.  With a short 9 hour 10 minute flight tonight, neither of us were hungry and passed on breakfast.   

Perfect landing at LAX and we were at our gate 10 minutes later.  The new TBIT is a huge improvement over the old one.

Lots of Global Entry kiosks and we were out in no time.
