Summer '15/'16 F Lounge Menu

[blackcat20]

I'm not a big champagne drinker and a real novice when it comes to good brands, but this is the impression I've had as well. What opened my eyes (ears?) on this as much as anything was overhearing wait staff in the MEL F lounge a few months ago talking about what champagne would be "pushed" that evening - the answer was pretty blunt - "we're getting more of the cheaper Taittinger in soon so that's what we need to serve". Made me re-think my quite often used "what would you recommend?' request tostaff when I am not an expert! (That's not just a QF F lounge thing, of course).

Yikes. I miss Bollinger; its where I first met that delight.

That was my first thought.

Second thought: burgers and fried chicken for the AA partnership?? Somewhat akin to AA serving (gourmet) meat pies in the Flagship Lounge?

Third thought: can't wait to get myself some of that quinoa salad and stir fried chicken breast!

They've had fried chicken on the menu before (last year I think).

Agreed. Surely only a hobbit could face first and second breakfasts?

Clever on so many levels. love it!

Ah, see so they count the EK406 (MEL - AKL) as a breakfast service, thought it was counted as a lunch flight.
Wait and see I guess, not that long, 23 days to go.
O, thanks RichardMEL.

I'm sorry but I'm losing the plot here. In what universe would a 0810 departure be considered a lunch flight? What's to wait and see? EK has shown you the menu for the flight (one of the better features of their website IMHO) and you have the lounge menu (before you ask, MEL and SYD are the same pretty much) so... all I am saying is... plan appropriately.
