Dan lounges TLV
A friend recently guested me into the Dan+ lounge (next to the synagogue, meant exclusively for BA business and silver and gold fliers, and a few others) and was surprised at what it was like, and can only say that I prefer the regular Dan lounges in B and C concourses. It has hard floor which makes it noisier, and connecting the 2 small rooms is a narrow corridor.
I don't understand what the + is about.
I prefer the regular spacious Dan lounges, with carpet, and more "lounge-like" atmosphere.

I wouldn't say they are bad, because for kosher-only eaters, they are one of the few lounges in the world which serve kosher food, which puts them high up on my preference list than a lot of other lounges. I was just comparing the different dan lounges.

Well it was meant to be exclusive for BA travellers, and while it was, it was a haven compared the regular Dan lounge which except for perhaps a couple of hours a day is an absolute zoo.
I haven't been in there for a whole however (been using the KDL) so if it is now just as busy as the regular Dan lounge that would be a real shame.

Was in the Dan B this week and it has improved tremendously. If the TLV Elal lounge is a 10, then this rates an 8.5 (it was a 5 last year). So kudos on a vast improvement!

Do they serve the same food the whole day - rolls, salads, cakes and drinks, or do they bring meat and other hot food during afternoon and evening?

If you want meat or hot food, fly TK or LH.
