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

At SYD last week I asked for Champagne (without specifying a label) and was given what looked and tasted like cider.
On inquiry the waiter insisted it was Taittinger.
I swapped it for a glass of the PJ and all was well.
 
My last F lounge on Monday was also without Tattinger. Seems to be a trend with CX F in London removing brands too.

Incidentally received a complementary bottle of PJ in my room at Conrad Hong Kong Monday night and now onbaord the PJ train.
 
Not 100% sure on what they are but they got rid of Barons de Rothschild which I was disappointed with as that was very easy to drink and that was my home lounge.
Unfortunate, that also happened in HKG Wing and Pier F when Sodexo took over. I quite liked the Rothschild too.
They did have Louis Roderer 2012 which has now been removed..

Once again the small plates look good to me. Less so the mains but still good variety. Bit of a shame (in my opinion) that the beef brisket is now a staple (with minor variation).

I like the brisket so no complaints here .Linguine was nice but needed some salt.
 
Rather than my usual corn fritters I thought I’d start the year a bit healthy*.

Corn and bean healthy bowl. I asked for smoked salmon to be added, and very generous quantity was provided. Delicious dish.

* if I could crop the Lagavulin 14 I would. Not a bad pairing, FYI.
