Seems to be the standard I know of for the MEL lounge. At least that stuff is there. Not sure about poor standard TBH, unless you really are talking about the quality of the selection on that day.
You forgot to mention falafel, tabouli, hommus and flat bread, which has always been there when I was in MEL, unless it is now gone / wasn't there when you were there.
As for nothing "Platinum", well of course - it caters for all of Golds, Platinums and paid subscriptions. Until VA make separate lounges.... and if it is anything, the lounge was recently renovated.
Nope. I only recall seeing sliced tasty cheese on the bar. Sometimes usfeta has been on offer. If there was Jarlsburg I would have likely flogged the bowl / plate.
