The chicken miso was pretty good last night. There was also Penfolds X Thienot Champagne Brut Rosé available which was very nice!

Last week I was in the Qantas Brisbane Domestic lounge .I haven't been in the Brisbane lounge for several years as I usually fly north, I am on Virgin. It's been extensively renovated since my last visit but I can't say I like it. Everything the bar, food etc is a long way from the seating.The seating is strangely all pushed off to the side, a rather long L shape with a view of a car park and drop off zone. The decor is an overdose of brown and beige.The food was fairly pedestrian and bland.Yes they still have the Miso.The food hasn't improved since Joyce departed.I have been a member long enough to remember life before the toast your own sandwiches.
As I had come off a southbound flight and had over 2 hours to wait and had another long flight in front of me I used the showers.The showers were the best part of the lounge, clean, spacious and plenty of towels.
Well maybe I have been spoiled by too many Friday afternoons in the Sydney Business Lounge.

BNE J lounge is weird, if the “cantina” thing is operating then the food offerings are fine - if not it’s only the buffet which in my experience is usually very sparse - worst of all the J lounges - most annoying part is the “cantina” thing seems to operate on an inconsistent basis as far as I can see.
