As for the food off of the menu - dire. Don't know why people rave about the Gnocchi. Awful. Just fried pieces of cheese. Reminds me of something from McD's.
Delays sometimes have advantages!

I was in the T3 Flounge for about 5 hours yesterday due to my original flight being cancelled. I did actually start by sampling the gnocchi, and I agree that it's not as good as I was led to believe. Also, the chicken curry was not spicy at all, in fact it was rather tasteless. So I'm glad they had the salmon as I got stuck into that towards the end of my visit.

The Flounge in T3 is much better than in T5.
