Hungry in First Class Lounge
It's all change in the shiny First Class lounge
The Emirates Palace menu has gone and what remains is a set of dishes that don't make for an a la Carte experience
For example the last item on the menu is (drum roll)
Eggs Benedict
So no real starters main dessert etc. Though I managed to get an off menu chicken soup
Such a shame that this has happened. I turned up expecting to eat supper but am leaving thinking about dropping by Burger King en route to the aircraft

Thanks Stargard but yes the quantities were small
I has a soup and a main and was still hungry
There are no side dishes, they made some vegetables separately for me after some insistence and I bagged some fries from the sliders option
And no, no desserts
Compared to what was there only two days ago...

tons of options. And if you ask nicely they will even prepare dishes which are not on the menu. Had a fantastic steak, my wife great scallops with some pol roger 2004 champagne.
in terms of food certainly one of the best lounges out there.
