Agreed this one could go either way. But have you been to the TK lounge since they opened the new section downstairs?
The TK lounge still does boy impress me. It's just a biz class lounge on a little bit of steroids. Comes nothing close to a true F lounge. The only F lounges that justify a longer layover for me (layover, never re route) are LH (FRA) EK (DXB), SQ, QF (SYD), CX (HKG), QR (Doha). certainly no biz class lounge is worth it. TK or not
