OREANDA-NEWS. May 23, 2011. From June 1, ANA will introduce new dishes designed by the two esteemed chefs Yuji Wakiya and Masayasu Yonemura. Yuji Wakiya is famous for his Japanese interpretations of Chinese cuisine, and Masayasu Yonemura has won selection into the Michelin Tokyo guide for the past three years by personally developing Japanese cuisine for global tastes. They were selected because their commitment to pursuing "inspiration" and embodying "modern Japan" through their cuisine accords with ANA's brand concept of "Inspiration of Japan". The new menus follow the popularity of previous dishes prepared by renowned chefs and will be available on board international flights to North America, Europe, and selected flights to Asia.

ANA will also introduce new in-flight menus in Business Class on international flights leaving Narita Airport for North America and Europe. The new menus will begin with new amuse-bouches, selected for their refined and refreshing qualities and at the end of the meal, passengers will be able to enjoy original frozen parfait desserts made from ingredients selected for their taste of summer.

"Inspiration of Japan" is ANA's product and service brand, covering various aspects of service including seat design, lounges and in-flight meals.
