#SingaporeAirlines #Food #WSJ
Flew in Singapore first class about a month ago and the food is delicious.
i love when this kind of detail goes into the user experience.
Congratulations to Singapore Airlines for being the world's best airline and Congratulations to all hard-working Singaporian men and women for their many great achievements in their very tiny country in many economic fields such as airline industry, ports and airports, banking services, tourism and in many other fields such as hygiene, education, science and technology, good governance, housing, water management, health, transportation, urban planning, spatial planning, trash management, ecology and even food.
shaboingboing bruh relax
I prefer Emerites A380
@@worldcitizeng6507 Emirates does fly to more destinstions than Singapore Airlines but their service standard is not on par with Singapore Airlines. SQ serves better food than EK for sure
Isn’t Emirates still the best airline around?
@@samuel9607, not for me !!
this was a good ad for business and first class clients.
that was super interesting!
one of my trusted airline. Have been loyal to them for over 20 years.
Isn't smoked trout simply a lower cost alternative to smoked salmon? Seems like a creative way to cut costs by the airline.
you might be right but they explained in the video that its important to keep things fresh which is why they choose the trout farm nearer by, there might not be a salmon farm nearby. Either way both fish are farmed and not good quality, unless they use wild salmon like sockeye.
you're not going to notice much difference at 30k feet as your taste buds is impacted due to the humidity and air pressure.
Steel head trout is more expensive than salmon at my local Costco. The filets sold both look similar in size and texture, but steel head filets are a darker shade of pink. They are closely related to each other as both swim out to sea and come back to fresh water rivers to spawn. You are probably thinking of rainbow trout.
Very interesting. Didn't know about the flavour changes that occur. Nice video. Keep up the good work.
I flew Singapore Airlines once in economy class. I would like to fly again! ✈️
3:38 the definition of fresh
Something about bare hands touching raw fish makes it first class worthiness
😂😂😂
you cook? cook with gloves on then?
👏🤣🤔
@@abgurung2595 Yes and often actually. Food poisoning is no joke.
@@toxicon5 while i understand the importance of food and hygiene, do you wear gloves on when cooking at home? - We just gotta trust that the chefs have followed the necessary steps to hygiene before prepping food. Gloves on or gloves off, people touch things all the time.
Forget the fish, just give me enough space to breathe.
Then pay up
disappointed at the utter lack of Airplane! references in this...
Not to mention that they didn’t even show the right aircraft for this route
Yeah what if I wanted to eat the chicken instead ?
Nice video.
Have they never watched Airplane? Fish on an airplane never ends well 🤣🤣🤣
Show the food in cattle class
Singapore Airlines, Qatar Airways, Emirates all have the best service for airlines in the world, even if you aren't in the hella expensive first or business class.
0:54 is China Southern and not SQ. Get it right WSJ, we supposed to trust you
lol it says skyteam there when sq is SA
Just give me a can of spaghetti and I'm all set
Not sure that qualifies as 'fresh' 🤔
This is pretty much an ad but what ads should be.
I don’t like “fresh” fish that has been sitting around for any amount of time beyond an hour or so. By that, I mean from the time it is prepared until the actual serving time. Also, the airplane cabin may smell like fish for some period of time after the dish is served. Especially when served raw or sashimi style.
Lol american definition of fresh involves a freezer... 😂😂😂
The voice of Flip Flop Traveler?
i thought i saw this years ago.
The cabin crew do the plating? That's... worrisome.
how? wsj invested in preservatives and spices for cooking that makes old fish taste fresh
Fresh Fish doesn't mean anything if it's Farmed Fish...
smoked trout is not fresh fish. it's definitionally preserved (by smoking). You could even "fresher" smoked fish from Acme which produces it in Brooklyn, 100 miles closer to JFK and EWR. The entire story here seems to be that they bought a brand of fish produced in NY instead of a brand produced in Europe or South America. So what?
this is a paid advertisement for SA, in the form of WSJ "content"
Wow, something actually good comes from NJ!
no matter how you prepare it airline food is still going to be subpar compared to normal food
Well because you're on the air and your tastebuds won't work normally as it would. Ground food will always be better.
@@ahmadadiyaat9779 precisely so I’d rather prefer to use the flight to fast and lose some weight
When you fly The Suite and eat that food, come back. I flew that a month ago. Food is what you'd get at a nice restaurant.
@@inspir3d81 you do you, i want to eat on a 19hr flight
@@inspir3d81 So you can afford not to eat anything on a 19 hours flight? You sound like a weirdo
I’ll be flying Singapore Airlines from Seattle to Singapore to Bangkok in 3 weeks. Can I expect the same in economy?
OH! RICH MAN! Where does our money come from?
Sadly nope.. coming from a Singaporean, SIA's economy class is only considered good because many competitor airlines aren't doing the bare minimum of service and cleanliness
of course not lol. you get the standard catering.
including the unfresh fish.
Unlikely. Youre in economy. You dont have the rights to demand change in comfort😔
Yes without the fish or fancy cutlery. Actually just the foil, maybe.
0:54 Wrong Airline
I have youtube premium for a year now. It feels nostalgic when I saw this ad today
It maybe me, but I dont want someone touching fresh fish meat with bare hands.
spare me
Trout fish is not salmon fish ! A bit misleading here
Please use gloves
1st class chef can't use a hand glove on camera
How? It isn't hard when more money is involved.....
1st class eats fresh fish while economy is packed like sardines
You get what you pay for ,mate🤣
@@supercar_jrdn Most people aren’t willing to pay $3,000 to $4,000 more to fly business class. The plane doesn’t get there any faster for business class passengers. The extra money goes a long way on the actual vacation part of a vacation. Now, if your company pays the bill, that’s different
International airline are not typically packed tight like sardines. Plenty of rooms in Emerites & Turkish airline
Sardines are tasty
Appreciate the meal but Why bare hand ? Is that clean enough ?
NO GLOVES!
Singapore Airlines uses an A350 between Newark and Singapore… why are you guys showing an A380 in the video?
And there’s no first class between NYC and Singapore, only Business and Premium Eco…
@@dimitriplatonoff258 there’s first class on the A380 which does fly to Singapore from JFK with a stop in Frankfurt.
@@tjr4459 they said world's longest flight and I don't think stopping over counts.
@@december1to31 ditto.
He didn't wash hands and started making that dish?? Yuckk
Farmed Fish is NOT Fresh!
The Wallstreet Jornal needs to talk about Ecosia they are a search engine that plants trees
Great now I am hungry now. ist class can get whatever they want meanwhile us peasants nothing special.
International airline still offer 2 choices for economy class. Turkish airline, Malaysia airline, Emerites etc. Turkish airline & Air France still has a paper menu and real ,non plastic utensils
Free plastine
Huh?
Plastine was a material used to encase clothing to keep it from getting dusty.
A study just linked eating fresh fish to increase in skin cancer due to all the arsenic, mercury, PCBs.
I could live without meat and poultry, but I can't imagine living without eating fish. Maybe that's why I have a lot of skin cherries
Depends where your fish grew up and ate, exposed too.
Not all fish is nasty and is actually good for you.
'A study' - that's very ominous - care to reference it?

More shocking is handling fish with bare hands for customers to eat.
He did say that it was a test.
Have you never eaten in a restaurant? Chefs work with bare hands all the time.
@@jim5128 on hot and maybe dry food yes... No bare hands on cold and wet food. It's very unhygienic.
Would you like me to dip my finger in your soup?
As long as he washes his hands before handling it it's fine.
@@namelessss520
1. Wash your hands
2. Place your hand on a Petri dish
3. Take down your post
It’s too small tho
It's appetizers, airline food is always small portions. Our taste buds is different when flying
At the pointy end of the plane, you can order more food over and over again.
@@g00rb4u thanks for the info I had no idea
Be veg
Be easy ✌️
❤❤
🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻
no gloves and serving ready-to-eat food. very sad for the chef
Oh dear me, what a tragedy... If only that doesn't happen in every 2 and 3 Michelin-starred restaurant in the world as well..
Use a glove please! It is standard for hygiene purpose...😐
We are eating dead animals 🙀
Better than eating living animals
Thousand miles in the air+turbulence+more than 200 plus people+ 1 toilet+ fish=.......?🤔
471 seats, 18 toilets, so a slightly better ratio (26:1) than you thought.
@@g00rb4u That's a relief. Makes me feel a whole lot better. Now, what happens when the pilots both have diarrhoea?😟
@@animes399 both pilots? There are 5 onboard for a long trip like this.
It's standard practice that they don't have the same meal with the captain getting first pick.
sad reality if we think about fish ...
God had made fish to swim in beautiful ocean, sea , river and ponds but we humans eats that beautiful creatures. 🐟 fish born in water of United States flies thousands of miles in another part of globe and get flushed in Singapore.... Amazing!!!! : (
Keep your garbage thoughts for yourself… Singapore airlines knows well what to do what not
sad reality if we think about plants ...
God had made plants to beautify the lands but we humans eats that beautiful creations. 🌿plants plantted in United States flies thousands of miles in another part of the globe and get flushed in Singapore... Amazing!!!! :(
So apparently Singapore has humans but US don't?
Fish are for consumption, by us or bigger fish. The circle of life

Absolutely like your TA, but I’d like to point out my point of view, it’s true that we have to refer to the historical data, however sometimes history doesn’t repeat. BTC is almost like a tease when it gets to these levels and it starts to suck in liquidity around this range but we will have to see how the market reacts to these. This is a perfect time to partake in trading as it is volatile. I've made over 9.2 BTC when I started at 1.5 BTC in just a few weeks with Mr tech4shaanfx . Analysis, him strategy is so satisfying.
I'm surprised you know he too, I've been making a lot of profits investing with him for a few months now
You invest with Mr tech4shaanfx too?
Wow that woman has been a blessing to me and my farnily,
I'm new to this, how can I reach him?
I was skeptical at first until I decided to try.
