[QUOTE=jeffrocowboy;30136990]Manila Lounge Terminal 2 (international) - I don't feel it's a filthy hole, but it is very rundown and not beftitting of a 4* airline. The food was limited (the hot dish was bangus (fish) and rice) - I had a hot dog instead out in the terminal proper. One of the things I can get my head around in the Philippines is there handling of food, its left to sit around, often lukewarm to cold./QUOTE]
I would imagine that being 4 stars is more of a paid marketing initiative to Skytrax if anything
Also, food left out like so is quite common and widespread around South East Asia for some reasons. It isn't very appealing, though some people just like the fact of having unlimited access to 'free' food.
I've always had the theory that they keep it lukewarm to prevent people from eating too much
