The OP's experience is not unusual. 15 minute check-in at the F area is almost normal in my experience. As stated by dsquared the OP was talking about buggy service from lounge to gate, I also was not offered this last time I flew TG F and had to walk right out to the end of C concourse. I was given the buggy from bottom of escalator to F lounge though.

Sorry to read that you didn't enjoy your flight, put it down to experience, next time, whoever you fly with in First, you will have a standard that has to be reached, albeit no that high in your estimations but a standard all the same. I just flew China and the only western person on board, I didn't know what I was eating, I laugh when you say you ordered a steak, wish I knew what mine was
none of the above excuses the poor meal service the OP received IMO.
As for Creole Spirit: you are amongst very few I am afraid.
