We boarded through door 2L and turned left into the business class cabin. The cabin has a total of 24 angled flat business class seats. They're spread across four rows in a 2-2-2 configuration. We had a pair of aisle and window seats in the last row of the cabin. While the design/colors of the…

Lucky, no Dom on this flight? Is that only on long haul flights? I thought I recalled you mentioning that Eva serves it in biz?

@ Robert - That's exactly right, they offer it as part of their "Royal Laurel" class, which is only on longhauls.

The toilets pepper were locked due to " high demand" but they did offer Hello Kitty poker cards as souvenirs while distributing mint. I choose one of full leafs and Puffy jet themed. They are just so cute. Green tea ice cream is one of my favs. Japanese like to serve it with hot red bean paste.

Lucky,
I had Din Tai Fung in LA couple of years ago, though i thought the oldest one in Taipei is better. Try it next time!
Btw, its "Royal" laurel class on EVA air 77W.

Last time I was in Taipei stayed at the Hyatt and noticed there was a travel show on at the conference centre across the way, so dropped in to see what was being offered to the locals. It was very crowded but one of the most popular booths was the EvaAir one, themed to introduce the soon-to-be-launched Hello Kitty service. Needless to say the crowd was comprised mainly of young women and older teenaged girls, all vying for the Hello Kitty giveaways.

Vacuum cooked chicken? Was that via Electrolux or Hoover?

Agree re taro dessert and nixing the green tea ice cream.

Contest: How many Hello Kitty references were in this post? Winner gets the soaps/lotions Lucky swiped from the restroom.

"Now if only I were a 12 year old girl…" Wait...you aren't? 😉

I wonder what a salty coffee tastes like, it sounds pretty horrid.

Great report, I really enjoyed it, thanks.

I am adamantly against stealing anything from the plane, specially if the item is provided for security and safety.

But those safety cards were so tempting.... just slapped my own hand !

@Jorge: Next time just ask if you can take one home. In my experience they'll often let you take one. Even if you steal it they'll just replace it from a stash they keep on board without bothering to track you down. I used to collect safety cards when I would fly a new aircraft type for the first time. Eventually I realized I never looked at them again and lost interest in collecting such things.

@Lucky "I’m not going to lie, I looked through the lavatory trying to find a whole roll I could possibly take with me, though they seem to hide them well, because I couldn’t find one. And I’m not about to take a half used roll of toilet paper… I won’t sink that low."

You won't sink that low to STEAL half-used toilet paper, but you are willing to STEAL an un-used one? LOL. WOW. Were you born a thief or raised as one?
