The afternoon departure from Los Angeles to London on United is a tad earlier than idea, but it gets into LHR at a pretty decent time, and is more than comfortable enough. Food was actually quite solid, from the shrimp appetizer to the boneless shortrib and the airplane chicken, although again you can't expect too much from business class, especially United's Polaris.
And just for good measure, the Easter sheep from LA Burdick Chocolates received the Tiff seal of approval. Just a hint of strawberry in the filling was a nice touch.
