At SYD F now.
Tried the buffalo mozzarella and tomato - was ok. I liked the same dish better at SIN F lounge.
I usually go for a Bloody Mary, but this time wanted to try something else. So, asked the wait staff what their recommendation for coughtails and was suggested the Margherita. Took one sip and I did not like it. Just a personal palette issue rather then quality issue. Went back to my usual BM.

Then tried the pumpkin, goats cheese, capers papperdelle. God, hated it with a passion. The pumpkin was not seasoned. There seem to be pumpkin purer at the bottom on the plate, again lacked any flavour, except for bland pumpkin. The capers, goats cheese was a good combo. So scooped the cheese and capers are stopped eating that dish. I hate food wastage, but in this instance, I genuinely hated the dish.
Then had the stir fried mushroom, tofu - the plant based option. OMG! I was in heaven

amazing dish. Only drawback was the portion size - next time, ill order a few serves of this plant based option.

Then had the Pav - loved it to pieces
My day with QF lounges don’t seem to go well. There seemed to be some issues with my food order. The wait staff who took the order said that they had sent it to the kitchen, but I didn’t get anything today for over 20 mins after ordering … the kitchen seemed busy, so I didn’t think much about it. I later enquired with my wait staff, she checked with the kitchen and the kitchen staff told that they had already sent my order out 10 mins ago … but I didn’t get any food … my waitstaff then told me that there will be another 15 mins before I will get my order and someone had taken the dishes that were made for me … feeling a bit peeved, I politely asked to talk to a supervisor.
Supervisor came by, did some inquiries and came back to me and said that there has been some confusion. Someone had ordered the exact same things I ordered and they were served first. I explained it all good, but how come the order numbers got mixed up. The supervisor then told me that some of the waitstaff are still under training and this might have contributed to this confusion. I said it’s all good. I explained that I also work in the service industry and I appreciate the work being done, in this instance it felt like someone dropped the ball and instead of taking anymore time from the floor staff, I preferred to talk to a supervisor.
During meal service, the supervisor came by once again , apologised once again and gave me a fruit platter. I refused it profusely because my intention was not to get any favours, but just to highlight an issue. She said that she appreciated that I asked to talk to a supervisor and insisted that I take the fruit platter.
