I saw a few people didn’t stick to a single choice. Are people actively encouraged to order more than one starter or entree? I can see myself being unable to decide and this will probably be a rare-in-a-lifetime experience for me.
You can order as much as you want and try many different things. Lower your expectations though, its not anything worth getting super hyped about, and this is from who loves FFD. 3 weeks ago in 4 passes, 2 at each FFD, I ate19 different items and would never pay for any of them ever if it was something available to buy at a restaurant.. Great booze though. The parm crisp on the chicory salad was the only thing I enjoyed. I had Scott get me 4 extra of them, they were quite good.

When you actually enter the FL lounge then on your right in 20 feet or so is the desk where you can sign in for a shower and get a key. Unlike JFK where they are unlocked and you just take a shower here you have to sign in and get a key.
Dont get too excited, the showers at MIA are a joke. The water cant get hot. Its set at 115 if i had to guess when any hotel will set their water heater to 135. I have mine at 150 at my house for the absolute max. 135 is fine but 115 is a freaking joke. They wont fix it either. I passed though 2 x in a week about 3 weeks ago and they called the engineer who said the setting was satisfactory and then when I came the 2nd time they confirmed that they cant change it. Very nice gal at the desk who agreed it wasnt hot.
