Fritters in Melbourne, relish has changed and not as good as it used to be.View attachment 503039

Back in the early days, the fritters were normally cooked upon ordering.

These days they are generally done in batches and sit waiting in bain maries.

The lamb ribs starter was quite good!

Having had a few underwhelming experiences in the SYD F lounge, I'm wondering if the MEL lounge might actually be better?

I'll maybe find out in a few weeks time.

The F/P1 beef short rib was one of the better dishes I've had in the lounge in quite some time. Incredibly tender and flavourful.

It’s for those in First, Chairmans Lounge and P1. You get escorted to the roped off section and get the special menu as well as the normal menu.

Refer posts #3277 & #3331 MEL all day & breakfast
#3305 SYD all day.
Sometimes a couple of variations between SYD & MEL. Compare if you wish.

Trout tartare was very nice.

Lamb rib was tasty but was quite dry and overcooked.

Beef short rib was very tender and tasty.

Is that black as in burned or black as in some spicy rub?

I had it 3 days ago. It is black because it burnt. It was so overcooked, what little I was able to fight off the bone, my 70+ jaws could not chew. Waste of time serving a plate of bones and charcoal. The kimchi was nice though but the Koreans would be screaming blue murder to the sacrilege Neil has delivered.
