The food is brought in from the regular kitchen area for the food for purchase (door to the right of the bar) so the distance is short from kitchen to room.
Basically they took the smoking room, repainted and put in new carpet (to get rid of smoke odor), new pictures and then just set up some serving tables and the 10 tables for 2. Much of the food is like what you can buy at the AC - salad, sandwiches, humus, etc. It is a nice touch - but not what you call a full service lounge - really just a private room with free drink and food (as sold in the AC).
Very friendly staff.
