Current Qantas First Lounge Menu (SYD/MEL) and relevant topics

Ok - round two:



Sticky beef. Very tender and tasty. Can't tell from the pic but there was plenty of meat.

And then the pork belly. Also very good.

Was going to have that yesterday but I succumbed to the duck.... again.

I have a friend I'll be guesting who hopes the duck is on the winter menu, but is confident that there'll be plenty of good choices regardless. Will be my friend's first time in a QF FLounge (on Australian soil at least) and my second visit (and first evening visit).

I'd love to see what's on the winter menu for breakfast.

I'll be there prior to QF 93, and I've only been in summer before.

Although, maybe the breakfast menu doesn't change much ??

On a side note....is it too early to drink champagne before a 915 am departure?

Never? I hear some of you say !!

TQ

It's never too early to drink champagne.

Realised we'll be in the MEL F lounge for a couple of hours in the evening of early July. How could I have forgotten this So keen to see the winter menu.

My first taste of F lounge in Sydney was the early morning flight to NZ. I think it was the blush Moët at 7.30 am for me. It was on the menu back then and now you just need to ask.

I was told there will be duck but the menu is having last minute tweaks. The media 'launch' is Wednesday 31st with the new menu available the next day.

From Friday's sojourn to SYD F: mussels on toasted brioche with pickled fennel and Cafe de Paris butter.

Looks Great however it looks like they need new plates

It's the useless blunt knives that leave those marks on the plates.

Thanks. My friend will be pleased.

Good to hear the menu should be operational on the 3rd then

This is one of my current faves. So good.

Apparently the winter menu is now available (have seen it posted on facebook). Some nice sounding dishes available, such as soy glazed beef, and black pepper chicken.

My last round with the old menu. Had the mussels on brioche (twice, superb). And also the fragrant fish curry with noodles. Also fantastic. One of the better menus in my humble opinion. Hope the next one is too (no OW flights booked yet but suspect there'll be at least one). Here's the fish:

I wasnt a huge fan of the Autumn menu but Im really looking forward to the Winter one.

So far I can recommend the lamb if you don't mind a bit of chilli.

Thanks for posting. Looks pretty good. Perhaps the wine list will change in time but for the moment looks identical to my recent visit. Aside from the Cab Sav I found the reds pretty disappointing. And the selection of spirits continues to underwhelm.

Risotto. Done. Four weeks time.
