To be fair, I didn't eat every time. It was generally the breakfasts that were lukewarm. And there'd always be issues - forgotten toast, forgotten brown sauce (should be mandatory for any fry up) and disappearing staff when wanting a coffee top up.

And it wouldn't happen with Emirates. The F lounges at DXB (CCR equivalent) have full service restaurants with a great variety (Poké bowls, sushi, curries, noodles, burgers etc.). Food is always cooked to order and piping hot. And you don't have to wander around trying to find somebody to serve you...
