So arriving at PVG 30mins before flt not always possible - but anyways - an F lounge should be an F lounge - period - but of course this is China isn't it?
Whether or not the Moet is genuine is a subject of debate, but even if it is, Budweiser is the better option.
The shower requirement is something I respect. In your situation, you seemed to have no other choices apart from the lounge. At least you didn't have to spend 4 hours in PVG, which is par for the course these days.
