Risotto from SQ's Book the Cook Service
Here was the wild mushroom and chorizo risotto from SQ's Book the Cook service. It wasn't as creamy as I would have hoped, and some parts of it were a bit dry (perhaps due to the on-board heating units?), but hey - it was risotto on an airplane after all, and I was happy with that. Too bad that they were still using the old school (pre-SpaceBed) Raffles Class seats on this route though.
It was interesting to see this flight path to Istanbul either way: we stayed just within Saudi and Jordanian borders so as to keep from crossing into Iraqi airspace. I am a bit puzzled as to why onward passengers could not leave the plane when we stopped in Dubai though.

From what I remember of Dubai's Terminal 1, once you leave via the jetbridge, it's leads straight to immigration unlike Changi / US / Anywhere else where going to the gate / leaving the gate is the same route. That and there might be a flight risk of the pax on board, and may make it difficult to track them down to go back onto the plane.
Lastly, leaving the aircraft may not be a security requirement.
