A few pics I took earlier today.

The unassuming entrance to the lounge from the departure hall, next to the Cafe Crown. On the left is the dedicated passport control point for the lounge. They are considering some changes to the layout.



The section below has some great desert offerings.



At the far left end is the entrance/exit to the airside departure hall.



8 Macs at this workstation. There are also some Sony notebooks for use across the lounge. A meeting room is also available.



As mentioned earlier the drink selection is quite impressive. The soft drink selection includes Organic Apple Juice, Eker Ayran, Sour Cherry among many other. There is also homemade mint and non-mint lemonade.



The barbecue that was announced is actually a grill where Do&Co chefs prepare kofte (meatballs). They also prepare pide (kind of Turkish Pizza) slices.



The library section has some great books and albums on Turkey and Turkish history. A cultural feast.

At present the whole lounge operation is at a very high standard. I am hopeful it will remain a well run operation as the lounge will be run by Do&Co.

The following link by TK Media Relations includes some extra pics:
