What Airline has the Best Food & Beverage in Business Class – and how’s the competition?

You should watch this video only on a full stomach in countless flight reports you see people on Big seats squeezing their champagne glass into the camera and it’s sometimes more and sometimes less embarrassing but what exactly do you get in business class and what is it that one airline does so differently

That its catering and service is the best worldwide we’ll take a closer look at this now and also compared with first class and with a competition elsewhere because the differences are huge so let’s dig in on this restaurant flight in Q Suite in many courses to and from Doha during takeoff a few words about travel sing fly with lots of background knowledge and packed with useful information travel singly today offers some of the most comprehensive Aviation and travel reports on YouTube nothing is sponsored everything is self-funded and therefore unbiased subscribe to the Channel right now using the Bell next to

It and be part of this growing Community with your comments everything will be read and answered and now we start so I’m going to take off my hat now and let’s start our culinary trip on cter Airways a culinary experience and um by the way this hat and also some T-shirts

You will be able to purchase very soon on my website traveling flight.com and of course there you will see also some uh articles about my flights about travel about trips how to fly nicely without breaking the bank however at the moment it will first be in German but of

Course you can always translate that and uh well I hope you have a look at That on the culinary side every trip with Kat business class starts with a really nice welcome drink and that’s not just some orange juice and water of course you get that too if you like but they have also for example as non-alcoholic drink a very nice lemon

Mint juice and that’s really fresh you get fresh lemon juice fresh mints so that’s really very nice very good and then you have also all the other drinks from the list uh including champagne and they have two two different kinds of champagne here I um asked for the Rosé

Champagne before the start and that was a Titan at Prestige Ros so that’s a really nice one at the beginning of 2024 there was a big surprise on board a lauron perier Alexandra 2007 as a rosé champagne in business class in a price segment that is hard to find elsewhere

Sometimes even in first class and then after takeoff um they start the service with um warm nuts that’s cashew nuts almonds and pistachos so that’s all really good nuts and then they have champag and that’s not just some champagne but really nice one also in this case it’s a philipon Roy Reserve

Fruit and you see the Moose the musu is very very beautiful very fresh very nicely sparkling so it’s all very good quality how they serve it is also really nice you know with a smile caring uh for the customers and that’s really very special here what is usually reserved

For first class service starts with an amus Bou for some time now and here it was a salmon roll on lbne and before that the table is set really nicely in a way that you don’t see elsewhere with a purple water glass an e candle bread basket and various oils and even the

Napkin is perfectly laid out for the guest droing is no fun here during Co times when most Airlines reduced their service to a minimum Qatar served up almost as much as usual only with higher safety measures such as covers gloves and face shields for everyone the food quality itself though was not not

Compromised so let’s also have a look at the menu before it all starts first of all the food menu uh of course we have bread I talked about that already then there’s a soup of a day that would have been broccoli soup I skipped that today

Because I want to have room for the rest then there’s two appertizers that’s Arabic me and poach tiger prawns with avocado cream and there’s four Mains that’s um stir Fred Black Angus tenderloin with black pepper sauce katari style prawn MC that’s um a rice dish with prawns from Katan then we have

A wild mushroom stuffed chicken breast that’s nice too I think and then there’s a vegetarian dish that’s um ravioli filled with pea and rotter or Peas I hope andriot then we have a cheese plate and then there’s two kinds of desserts that’s raspberry and chocolate gateau so raspberry and chocolate cake and fresh

Berries with rose waterer syrup and then of course it gets light snakes throughout the flight then let’s have a look at the drinks that are not alcoholic and they’re on the food menu actually you have five different kinds of mocktails plus so Jenny that’s the non-alcoholic kind of champagne and

That’s actually not so bad to be honest and there’s of course all kinds of uh soft drinks and a lot a lot of kind of teas and then there also have kak chai which is a really nice chai and then they have all kinds of really nice coffees

Like real ones espresso and so forth then let’s have a look at the alcoholic beverages so this is the wine card the wine menu and of course that’s always really good here at Qatar Airways and we start with champagne they have two different kinds of champagne a regular

One which is not so regular because it’s a reserve champagne so that’s a philipona Royal Reserve brute and then Rosé champagne is from titinger a Prestige Ros then we have a shardon that’s from France we have a to BL also from France and wling from Germany that’s a house closer back rling from

Marus molor then we have three different kinds of red wines that’s a bordo of course from France logical that’s a chat Lynch musaw class poak Bordeaux so that’s really nice then we have a shiras from Australia and Malbec from Argentina then there’s two dessert wines that’s a suan

First of all from France it’s also a class so from 2013 from chat DEA and a 20-year-old Tony Port so 20 years old you don’t normally get on business class that’s reserved for for first class and um well cter a has 20year old ones some business classes or most business

Classes offer 10year old and even some first classes so anyway and then we have all kinds of spirits and that’s of course like the regular ones the whiskies and the rums and so on and then we have nine different kinds of cocktails so that’s really pretty special too including champagne cocktail

So we have a really nice champagne for the champagne cocktail and all the other cocktails on a short side note isn’t it pretty amusing that the national carrier of one of the world’s most conservative Islamic countries has one of the best spirit and wine lists cheers so we’re starting here with poached

Tiger prawns with avocado cream and some micro greens so actually that’s some I think Water Crest or something like that and then there’s some uh pink grapefruit and then we have this what is this interesting looks like cavia but of course it’s not I guess

Yes it looks like javia but I think it’s made from Red beat or something like that but very beautiful the seafood starters are a special highlight here on a short Regional hop to salala I got baric salmon which Swiss only serves in first class and instead of caviar or

Here half a lobster the difference to first class is quite small which somehow might not be so smart for getting potential first class customers however in Qatar first you’d get super exclusive crook champagne and of course there’s also caviar but now let’s compare a little more here starters from first

Class and from business classes on other Airlines So I had a first bite and first of all the prawns are just phenomenal they’re really nice and crisp and Super Super Fresh like yeah and then the avocado cream has actually pieces also of avocado and it’s so fresh it feels like somebody just prepared it now here in

The kitchen of course they cannot be but that’s how it feels very very fresh very nice and then there are little drops like jelly drops jelly drops of what could be some kind of um apple juice reduction or so but it’s really really good I totally forgot just how amazing

Food is here at Qatar a but let’s see we’re just starting Now as a second appetizer I got some Arabic met and the nice thing about Qatar Airways is not only that it mostly tastes really good but also that they have the dine on demand system so you can eat just after take off or just before landing or just in the middle of

The flight as you like you can eat a little you can eat a lot and it’s not like they would do a service and then they disappear for the rest of the flight no they’re always here attentive all the time and that’s really very very special and that I appreciate that so

Much and also they give fresh silver bear with every new um course so you don’t have the dirty silver bear from the first course but no they give you a new one every single time that’s so special I think that’s the only ER that does

It I have like one or two other erand in mind that do that too but otherwise that’s three special in business class as a white wine I’m having a Chardon that’s not from France but from Australia and that’s the penfolds bin 311 from 2018 and um I mean the color is very

Nice very sh on nior of course especially beautiful against the blue sky and it smells nice and H of course it tastes good big surprise before we get to the main courses here’s a short tour of the Q Suite still probably the the world’s best business class but there’s strong

Competition coming with the newest planes of A&A and at least in terms of the seat with the brand new a350 off a India just one thing you should know the Q Suite is not available in all qar business class cabins but the price is usually the same you can find out what

You should pay attention to when booking and how you can afford this great experience at least once without breaking the bank in my Q Suite report for for 2024 if you like this and the well over 100 flight and travel reports on the two traveling flly channels then please give

Me a thumbs up comment on the video and subscribe to the Channel with a little bell next to it to make sure that you don’t miss out on any of the exciting videos that have released here you’ll help the Channel with all its free content to grow and become more visible

Keep looking around travel sing fly there’s for sure a few more reports qus that are just the right ones for you it’s so great to have you here and I got the main course and that’s Angus beef actually it’s uh not a steak not a full

Steak but it’s pieces of a steak I wasn’t clear about that anyway it smells really nice and there’s some Asian vegetables that’s some bamboo shs and some chili and broccoli and then there’s some rice and with it I got some Bordeaux it’s a very nice chartu Lynch

Musak G see a poak from 2015 and or when they poured the wine it looked really nice and it tastes accordingly how would you say that really nice and they also served condiments with the beef I don’t understand quite why they served mayonnaise or ketchup mustard or Tabasco

But actually it’s not a piece of steak it’s just um pieces of steak in sauce so I don’t know if that makes sense to use it but maybe I will just take it home and eat it there when it comes to main courses there are only minor differences

In qatar’s business class compared to the first class which seems to be dying here anyway as it’s only available on the airlines few Airbus a granded 80s and although the seat is much larger it is also quite outdated compared to the competition [Applause] [Applause] so after the main course we have cheese and the cheese spatter here is really fantastic look at this really really very nice um better than all the rest I would say in business class in the world I think that’s really true have a look at my Singapore Airlines first class

Sweets review I mean I said it already in another review but um the Singapore Island first class suits are actually the best uh first class when it comes to the size of the seat because you have a whole little room to yourself and I even

Had two I had a whole double bed and lots of space it was just phenomenal Singapore Island was also voted the best airline of the year I mean that’s arguable of course but it’s a very good Airline but um the first class as I said the first class suets are really

Spectacular a totally amazing um memory but their cheese platter was so embarrassing because everything was so nice and then they had like this counter Quality Cheese suddenly that was really embarrassing and they should have looked at look at this they would probably Cry tears so you have some pears and apple

And some dried apricot and some Walnut four kinds of cheese and this is what I think fig Chutney maybe I’m wrong but tastes like it it tastes very good so I’ve been having some cheese already and that’s really such a good cheese only here the white hard cheese one is really

Spectacular The Taste is so good then of course 20y old Tony port wine it’s just wonderful with it well and um you know the whole setting is really very very close to first class this you don’t get in normally in business class and also this kind of teeth spatter you don’t and here

You do so that’s probably why they call themselves also first in business because already the service is very close to first class and also here the still I think it’s St this orange cheese here tastes so good it’s very well done you know you have four different kinds of cheese and

They’re all very different from each other very well done and also the Walnut here unfortunately I just swallowed it down it was so good but it was not just B it was roasted and I think with a little honey coating so really really very good never had that on a plane lots

Of walnuts but never refined the only airline that topped this in my travel life with amazing cheese and fruit grad was Emirates but that might also have to do with Hennessy parade cognac which was served with It and finally we come to the Sweet finale here with an original take from my last Q sweet report we’re above the Turkish Iranian border right now and we’re having dessert and well I need to just listen to myself what I just said but that’s how it is like on many many Qatar

Airways uh flights every day in the world anyway we having dessert and that’s very nice chocolate raspberry cake it looks very beautiful and with it we’re having some dessert wine and that’s a soan that’s a G Class San from chatau deira from 2013 in San is just always just

Wonderful in this one especially yes really nice and here’s a few more wonderful and also strange desserts at Qatar and other airlines in business and first A so that’s also something that really sets Qatar a apart from the other airlines it’s so beautifully presented with this little kind of deconstructed chocolate something and then you have the fresh fruit and so on it’s just really elevated Elevated Cuisine that you get here on an airline

Here just above the Turkish Iranian border on the flight to Doha so that’s really something this is not first class it’s business class for those of you who can still lie down this is what it looks like when this heat becomes a bed the airline’s longest flight lasts about 17

Hours from ockland to Doha but what does breakfast actually look like here a year ago on an A380 I sacrificed myself completely to the channel and tried out all the breakfast options here’s a few examples the complete report on Qatar Airways largest airliner is available on

The channel the A380 is the only Qatar Airways aircraft to offer a bar on board with drinks and small snacks similar to Emirates but somehow less fun I have no idea why that is if your flight starts late at night and it’s rather short overnight catering might be limited to

Smaller dishes and then of course breakfast and speaking of breakfast may I interest you in a coffee moment with me to keep me awake during my long nights editing videos buy me a coffee is a great way to support the work of creators like me at the cost of one or

More cups of coffee you can now find the link at the top right of the window and in the video description and an even easier way to support is the super than button that you can find directly under the video I will appreciate it very very much and now let’s have some

Fruits so it’s 1 hour until Landing in DOA and before the ti comes onto my chest again I’m going to have some fruits but I didn’t know that they would set the whole table again I just I just said actually they don’t need to do it but my flight attendant insisted that

You would set the table for it so I’m going to have a full table again and uh yeah so that’s really special too and um I’m having also some so Jenny that’s an alcohol-free sparkling wine and I mean of course it does not taste like sparkling wine and also like champagne

But it tastes nice so before landing a few words about the Qatar Airways lounges because on the ground the airline offers in my experience by far the best catering of all business lounges worldwide in its moan lounges in DOA and the five premium lounges in the world here too only

Emirates gets close to that when it comes to quality of food and beverages however you won’t get alard service in Dubai in the new opulent Garden Lounge just as in its older sister Lounge the offerings range from Arabic Mets to excellent Sushi to a stunning dessert buffet and there are also high quality

Wines just like in the air in the alafa first Lounge the wines are naturally even better however the otherwise not so great Emirates first class Lounge in Dubai is the world champion here with incredibly valuable bottles for sale service at the bar you can find exciting reports about all business lounges in

Dubai about the legendary alafa first class lounge with his jacuzzi and bedrooms and about all Emirates lounges in Dubai here on travel sing flly and the Tiger’s back with lots more calories than before the flight of course it’s just a tiger not me so um what do you

Think about the culinary advantages of this flight did you like what you saw St let me know if you’ve been already on Qatar business class or first class or economy class and how that was I’m really looking forward to reading all of that to me it’s actually the Pinnacle in

Business class when it comes to food and beverages of course there’s other very good Airlines such as Emirates etad I would say um Singapore Airlines of course um Cathy Pacific A&A Eva also and also Japan Airlines for example but here it’s just this extra extra tiny bit more

Than everywhere else so that’s really pretty impressive and also the service of course they do it after a rule book but how they do the service is also pretty impressive so it will be fun to just go here just for the food but unfortunately it’s a little more expensive than in a Restaurant So my dear ones we’ve landed in DOA I hope you like the reports if yes give me a thumbs up subscribe to the channel and I really recommend you to watch this movie here this video right away it’s really worth it see you again very soon here at Travel sing fly a

What do they serve in business and first class, and what is it that one airline makes so different that it’s the best worldwide when it comes to food and beverages?
From a QSuite seat on a Qatar Airways flight, we take a close look at the airline’s menu and wine list and we compare to their First Class and to the business-class competition of many airlines worldwide.

  1. I'm scheduled to fly business class on ANA to Bali and then KLM to Singapore.
    Honestly, I'm not as excited about Japanese food, but I'm sure the service will be awesome.
    Thus far, my best Business Class experience has been EMIRATES roundtrip to Seychelles and Maldives.

  2. I really appreciate when an airline in business class actually sets the table vs bringing out a tray. The food can be the same but that small difference really makes the experience. Another great video!

  3. Great video Chris and happy memories! Qatar food/drink is very good and the and service is better than Emirates; more personal. Emirates is still v good too…and I love the bar at the back. The Garden Lounge is the best in Doha in my opinion. All flights are great, and these are just amazing. Super to see you at 16,000 Subscribers: I remember you being a bit down when you were only at 3,000. Bravo.

  4. When I fly Christian it's mineral water and still water and perhaps a glass of red wine or a campari, soup salads and vegies. Avoid the meat chicken keep it light as possible. My stomach suffers because of flying . It basically becomes static

  5. Thanks for your continually informative vlogs. Brilliant!!! My partner (who is German but living in South Africa) and I flew Qatar Business from Johannesburg to Berlin return in January/February. Four amazing flights. Probably the best Qatar Airways experiences we have had. Qatar Airways is like a continual birthday present, with excellent amenities, pyjamas/slippers and especially phenomenal service and food. And of course the Q-Suite is amazing, although I feel that the herringbone has the most comfortable seats. From the cheese platter to the desserts, the soup, the bread, the lime-mint juice, the drinks, the tomato-chilli oil, you name it. Even down to the hot chocolate and Chai tea. It's all amazing. The Qatari Chicken Majboos is my absolute favourite, served with an amazing coriander sauce. And that tomato-chilli oil for the bread I absolutely love. The food quality was beyond amazing.

  6. Absolutely shameless…
    A country like Qatar should be ashamed of letting a carrier like this represent them as a country.
    Even if this airline is the last on the planet – I'll rather walk or swim.
