I’m disappointed the Sichuan mince is as disappointing as the Rendang…… agree, they missed adding any Sichuan, mine has spring onions and coriander in addition to your photo

It was on last week (see post #759). Your’s seems to be missing the chilies!

I pimped it only slightly with some extra sambal and pickled ginger but thought it was reasonably tasty.

As an aside, they seemed to have had a decent selection of self-serve options for lunch, as did the SYD J lounge on the way down.

The food offering in both SYD and MEL dom J lounges has improved.

The self serve options have been the same for the last 3 months, soups included. The mince was blond n bland, the noodles had no texture and the whole thing was pretty well tasteless. I know, 1st word problems (the cafe doesn’t even accept credit cards!)

Seppelt Drivers sparkling has been replaced- and I thought it could not get any worse……

What ToD?

Last week, right on noon, they had an interesting looking curry and two other items that looked reasonably substantial. I didn’t try them as I was happy with the noodles.

Yes, the veggie curry is interesting, variety more so. QF767 whY today, beef Randang…… I’m just lucky I guess

A conundrum, the whY version of beef randang was quite good, (or the Spice Bar version was quite bad……)
