I recently had a few flights over the pond on AC instead of UA. Had a layover in YUL and found that MLL amazing. One of the best food offerings I‘ve seen in a regular Star Gold lounge in a long time. Even an on-site cook that prepared fresh Asian noodle dishes. On the way back I transited through YYZ and found that MLL (intl) to be way less special. Both stays were during regular dinner hours (between 6 and 8 pm). Why has their main hub a worse lounge? Or was I simply too stupid to see the good stuff?

Would someone mind summing up the meal service times at YVR DOM, YVR TB, and YYC? Including weekends?
I know most of these details are buried in the thread, but a bunch of searching, scrolling, and googling has only turned up limited and dated info.
Asking for a friend.

It actually seems to me like it would be tremendously useful to have a wiki with a quick summary of what's available and when at all of the various MLLs, since it requires a massive amount of digging to find anything specific in this thread. I don't spend a lot of time in MLLs these days (I've probably spent at least 10x more time in the YYC Aspire TB lounge in the past year than in all MLLs combined), but I'll do what I can to contribute...

Thanks for starting the wiki. I accepted your challenge
and added as much info as I have based on photos from others as well as my own visits.I've also noted which posts have photos of food from various meal times.
Perhaps others here can get a photo of the sign that has the hours of operation for each MLL and more details of food offerings.

This would have been a great project for @yyznomad in 2017, he probably would have had it pretty much built out in a couple of days.

I added some comments on YYZ Dom and YYC and turned the photo references in to links so no need to scroll.

Having said that, there are several threads in this forum that really should have a wiki so that the same stuff doesn't get rehashed every 18 posts or whatever.

Currently in the YYZ Domestic......
Hash browns are cold
Scrambled eggs are warmish
The sausages scare me, but there is some great banana porn on display near the coffee machine

Are the bananas of the over-ripe variety? These are nasty and only suitable for baking or making bananes flambées. Oh hey, you have everything you need in a MLL to make a banane flambée - some spiced rum, a bit of sugar, a square of butter and a banana. You only need to find an open flame!
