Virgin Lounge Food

[AustraliaPoochie]

VA peels the eggs dont they?
QP gives them whole, in shell, and you have to break the albumen and yolk out to shell to eat white and yellow.

If EY flew more flights into Aust, with more pax from that side of the world, ($$$ and who would use the VAd lounges) bacon might have to be taken off, as would ham, and maybe replaced with chicken slices!

or turkey "bacon or ham" - both abominable!

 

[AustraliaPoochie]

Justinf, its to do with $.
Anything that is cheap, edible, and deemed appropriate will be served, like it or not. Thats VA. Cant complain though, as I used my PS 2 free entries. Discussing with myself if its worth to pay $300 or $65 per entry for each VA lounge visit.
All day all day DIY sandwiches aka toastie in the VA lounge, vs stew and rice I had in the QP in AKL for lunch recently.

Vegetarian fried rice?

I think so JohnK. All I could see was the pumpkin, the rice was a yellow colour. I would have tried it if it had not been so gluggy.

Hubby flew out of MEL this morning and reports no bacon, only beans and hash browns.

That would have caused some disappointment I imagine.

Hash browns is definitely an improvement

Aussie _flyer Maybe it was risotto but it did not look like any risotto I have seen before.

Luke has very little (nothing) to do with the new lounge menu

You will not find his name and the lounge in the same sentence in any official releases since 2012.

Gluggy rice is code for risotto at our place....

Yes a celebrity chef isnt required to make a ham sandwich, roast beef roll or eggs and bacon i suppose

An international qantas business lounge cannot be compared to a domestic lounge.

Lucky enough to be treated to beef sausages and scrambled eggs in SYD this morning.

Was in CBR lounge around 4pm yesterday, had some rice salad dish and that was the highlight.

I'm starting to think that this new menu is in a lounge i'm not entitled to?

My wife who is Red but flies with me a lot even mentioned the lounge really needs to improve.

Dinner in SYD tonight is DIY pork Burritos! They taste awesome. Keep it up Virgin. EDIT: The sausage rolls just got brought around #winning
