Lounge Catering Changes- how often?

[pmdg7444]

How often does the food options in the BNEMELSYD lounges change? I recall seeing images of hotdogs and chilli beef posted here but havent seen those in SYD.

Hot dogs were on the menu in Sydney on Tuesday evening

As always, we've been listening, and we hear you on the hot dinners so, as of today, we are pleased to provide a weekday hot dish option in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane lounges.

In addition to the toasties, soups, salads, themed meal and pass-around pizza and coughtails pies (5-7pm), you can now enjoy a hot dog, curry, or Mexican feast. A sample of what's on offer (Sydney lounge dinner menu) follows:


Pass arounds 5-7pm - mozzarella pizza, lamb and rosemary mini-pies; minestrone soup; Israeli cous cous, Thai noodle, potato with sour cream and herbs salads; make your own Greek salad - meatballs, tzatiki, Greek salad (no feta), marinated feta cheese, pita pocket, Mexican cantina - chickpea & chorizo, tortillas, avocado dip, sour cream, corn chips, caramel slice, and a cheese plate. While hot dogs are on Melbourne's menu, and curry is in Brisbane.

This has of course been designed by our chef, Luke Mangan!

We're also pleased to bring you a more premium wine selection to enjoy it with!

This quarter's selection is an all-Australian selection focusing on hero regions and offering boutique and big name brands - including Margan Rose, Capel Vale Sav Blanc, Knappstein Riesling, Phillip Shaw Chardonnay, Josef Chromy Pinot Noir, Pikes Shiraz, and Katnook Cab Sauv.

For the beer drinkers, Asahi returns to Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, Corona added to Brisbane selection, and Beez Neez to Sydney's range.

Note: Beer & wine change quarterly, food monthly with a different menu on offer in each lounge. New menus on the bar and buffet will also keep you up to date on what's on offer.

How does that explain how often it changes ?

Food hasn't changed in MEL monthly

It's been hot dogs and hot dogs with pizza coming around if you are lucky

I personally have no issue with hot dogs - in fact I hope they never change them in mel (though I only fly there and back once a week - i can see if you were flying multiple times it'd be a hassle). IMO hot dogs are perfect lounge fare - I can rush through the lounge, pick up a hotdog then head to the plane as its boarding (usually with hot dog still in hand). Fantastic!

Thats when its MEANT to change, what happen in reality is more than likely a different thing as experienced flyers would appreciate Its a glass half full thing isnt it! Other menu threads also show the changes, with additions like the toastie etc.
