Current F Lounge Menu (SYD/MEL) and relevant topics

[AIRwin]

Not bad, but a shame there doesn't seem to be any duck on the menu.

Looks like I'm out of luck/duck when I'm there next week...

Haven’t seen a Summer Menu posted… yet

Thanks for posting, and good to see the galbi jjim ssam is hanging around - it was shown on the Qantas instagram page in a 'special additional menu' for the ICN inaugural flight. Hoping the bibimbap is a regular on the summer breakfast menu also.

Did it taste better than it looks?

That's what I had thought too- looks incredibly dry and bland to me...

Melbourne F lounge menu from yesterday. A few small differences to the Sydney one. Pardon the forensic blue light photo...

Don't even need to mention this is Mel, the photo colours a dead giveaway!

Dissapointed the fried chicken isn't available in Sydney though :/

Thanks for the MEL F summer menu @BrettV - I note still not bothering to show what the bubbles are.

Ah remembering the days when there were around 4 options including Bolly, Taitinger and so on. Long time back now...

Piper or Pommery were on offer yesterday.

Nice day for flying. Even nicer starting there!

Started in overcast BNE with a slight delay waiting for catering to be loaded but it's sunny and even warm in the SYD lounge...

Am I right in thinking that the last flight out of MEL for which the F Lounge is open for is QF155 departing at 23:25 to AKL?

I have a 1am departure to HKG in a week or so.

Edit: yes looks like it will close after the last QF flight is called for boarding. CX has contracted The House in MEL.

Thanks, we may achieve dinner before shuffling off to the house.

pre-covid I have experience that the J lounge (aka the dungeon) does stay open (if the house does not suit). got booted out of F lounge at 11pm ish for a >midnight MH flight and apologetially sent downstairs. That may also be an option - of sorts (though The House may be better).

Breakfast in the Sydney F lounge on Boxing Day. Muesli, yogurt, apple/ginger juice and toast with condiments.

Back on the topic of off menu coughtails…just managed to get a proper negroni, minus the orange twist, at a certain lounge. Friendly bar manager did say it was an absolute exception, however allowed the privelige after three terrible on the menu “coughtails”.


We had a good chat about the negroni sbagliato which they were serving previously. No match for the real thing.

Some first class lounges may need to follow suit.

Does anyone know what time the all day menu starts being served in SYD?
