Mahalo and thank you so much for your detailed answers - am very grateful.

What I had meant to ask is whether there was an appetizer served separately from a salad - sorry for confusion.

I'll probably just pay to get the 1 day pass to the Lounge - I'll be connecting from Dallas.

Hope you enjoyed your vacation.

Now that I think about it, they serve a small piece of cake with the pre-arrival snack prior to landing in Honolulu.

Sorry for confusion re: "at the gate" - I meant on the plane while the plane is still parked at gate in MSP.
