but yes, if you are hungry, the average club will do little to whet your appetite!
My day will start at about 05:30 with a drive to ATL from SAV, then the flight to ORD, and that will likely be my first opportunity for something substantial to eat, and I don't arrive in ATW till late evening, so as much as I would of course rather sit in a gleaming sparkling clean anything, if a restaurant is needed to consume something more than a lounge cuppa soup and snack bat, then a restaurant it will be, for the time it takes to eat.

But, of course, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I respect your choice of seating location and dining preferences
