I'll be happily visiting the Sydney F Lounge next week Friday and was hoping they might have changed to the Autumn menu by then... Does anyone know when the change will happen?

On the Rockpool website they still got the Summer one on and I remember I had this the first time on December 10th last year so it's just about time for a change... Or not? :confused:
 
Who knows? (Maybe you can check the Rockpool web site.)

Bring back the Duck liver parfait I reckon!
:DCheers, due to ignorance I had avoided it assuming it would be something similar to a dessert style parfait .
[Duck Dessert! :shock:]

It was only when I asked and the table attendant said it was "like a pate" that I gave it a go.

It was mangificent [sic] - I was sorry to see it go. :(

Here's a pic for posterity:

I think the menus are as follows: Summer is December, January, February - Autumn is March, April, May - Winter is June, July, August - Spring September, October, November

They do have the menus on Rockpool » Premium Lounges but in my experience this is not always up to date. For instance I was in the flounge on the 9th December and they were already on the summer menu, yet the Rockpool website still had the Spring menus up, although the website was updated about two weeks later.

Many thanks for this- I've already checked the website but this is exactly what I thought might be the case, not necessarily up to date when the menu changes. In other words: On the 16th of March, I should have a good chance of experiencing something new :p

pics please so I can prepare for in four weeks :D
 
I'll be in the F lounge tomorrow :) But only for breakfast unfortunately. Will try and get hold of a lunch menu and take a photo.
 
Lunch last Tuesday was the same as it was at the F lounge run in Jan.
 
When I went through on 20 Jan the pav had changed to mango & passion fruit. Had been enjoying the strawberry one for most of last year IIRC.
Already anticipating my lunch on Monday :D. Shame QF 11 isn't the A380 though. Will just have to struggle through.

First World problem ;)

Although, shouldn't that be QF 11?



Posted on a wing and a prayer

Just getting ahead of myself ;) . And hopefully not a sign of things to come on my return!

Though it would be very nice to have a similar lounge at LAX - think of the extra runs this group would create around that :shock:

Oh, don't say these words... I'm on QF11 next Friday and it still shows as an A380- I am always panicking about this until I'm at the gate and see the aircraft parked there. Has happened to me far too often lately in the last minute :shock:

Enjoy your lunch! :)

I'm sorry to hear that.

I was devastated when my QF11 got subbed :(
 
Hey guys,

First Lounge menu in Sydney has already changed and Melbourne menu is changing today. Enjoy!

Cheers,
Red Roo
 
Same thing happened with Sat.'s QF11 :-|, my 80K became 40A (Low J Kangaroo config.) - now moved to aisle seat.

A few changes in my bookings in the past week - first QF8 on 12 March BNE SYD became a 3 class plane; then both QF 7 & 8 for my May US trip changed, & then this week QF 11 for the 12th as well.

Of course, I always knew changes were afoot for QF7 & 8, so enjoyed the J & F seats :D while they were available as a bonus for us.
