Indeed, I will happily take a Singapore Sling and some Asian Cuisine over the worn offerings in a crowded afternoon United Club anyday.
I would offer a counter to LHR T2 UC being closer to Polaris lounge than domestic UCs. Yes, there are mediocre ones, but the newer domestic UCs, such as those at EWR and ORD, are good examples.
