David Chang’s Plane Face

“In first class, there’s acres of legroom and endless Champagne, and they never, ever tell you to stop typing on your BlackBerry — even during takeoff! It’s full of surprises. The first time I flew first class on Emirates, headed to the other side of the globe, I saw that it’s Bye Bye Burkas! at 30,000 feet. Not only did the women on the flight shed their coverings — they were dripping in brand-name accessories. Unbelievable. I celebrated by watching every season of The Wonder Years, which was, rather miraculously, available on my private television set. I never wanted that flight to end.”
