Didn't realise there were two "premium" check in areas. Went to one and commented to the agent on the desk that it looked different from last time
Agent told me I could use the Chelsea and was asking my opinions on it and how it compared to the other lounges.

Anyway, no issue getting in just now. Flying Transcon F if that makes a difference.

Seems to be Laurent Perrier champagne on offer, not that I'm too fussed.

Looked at some menus on the podium and there seems to one that is Kosher, another being afternoon tea. Can't say I've seen those mentioned before.




Burger and steak frites

Added: popped back later after lounge hopping and "are you travelling internationally or connecting to F?" at the front desk. Different experience from earlier.

As last time I was in here, a few weeks ago, sitting near the bar makes you invisible. Not been approached by any staff as of yet, but it's cooler this end as a positive. A couple of staff did eventually approach a couple of others, so it's obviously me!

1 staff member by the entrance; 2 behind the bar; at least 3 and the sports jacketed "manager" near the dining area.

Good 20+ people dining at present.
Some woman has just got a glass of LPGS from a bottle under the bar, so there is some. Possibly the Ruinart, not that I know the bottle, but it's being brought out for some.
