I have flown out of SYD a number of times - I have never viewed the lounge there as superior to MEL but others hold a totally diff view - knowing the MEL Lounge Manager and staff so well* I always get preferential treatment so my views are always going to be coloured
Expected as much re the staff! The staff were great in Sydney, but I compared the food to what my partner got in MEL a couple of weeks later, which seemed better. But I guess the main event (for those genuinely travelling in F) is on the plane, just not for those of us travelling in J, PE or Y. Or maybe it's my sweet tooth talking, my partner had
the choice of Chocolate Mousse, a Pavlova (in a glass I think) and Ice Cream, in Sydney it was just some small cakes on the buffet which looked like they'd been there a while. The ala carte menu at SYD (daily special was chick pea curry

) ....
