You mean where the Sake vats are? Im disappointed I missed it. I did quite like the ANA lounge in NRT. I probably ate 500 meatballs and took a 30 minute shower...
I pretty much had the whole place to myself... I was flying UA and everyone else was crammed into the UA lounge like sardines. It was next to the gate, I went there for 5 minutes before boarding... I couldn't help but wonder why they weren't in the ANA lounge.

The "modified" (different caterer, or caterer changing it up?) cheese and beef ravioli offering in the YYZ int'l MLL are absolutely disgusting.
Soggy. Bland. Disgusting.
I very much liked the previous version of these (larger ravioli size as well).

I know you fly a heck of a lot, why not just grab the right PP membership or grab the Plat AMEX to use the PP lounges? eg much better food. I mean, with that and priority taxi/limo, 15% off T1 parking and much more, you'd make it back in a heartbeat. Anyways, I fly a fraction of what you do and I still find tremendous value by going into the PP lounges instead of MLL's. Even domestically, it saves me the time to go up/down the elevator as I can take the escalator down from the PP lounge to the gates. I value even that time saved, and you'd save what I do times a million
Anyways, just an innocent suggestion!

Poor, starving, university student, teenage son loves YHZ MLL. I give him all my passes for when he flies home. Monday he snaffled the entire plate of sandwiches as they were removing them to throw them away. Hey - free food is free food - and the booze is free too!! What more could a student want?
Uh oh - I guess he is cheapening the product

Was in the Calgary MLL last night, felt like I was begging for scraps... The bartenders were busy chatting up a couple of pretty ladies, the rest of us schmugs can stand in line forever for a drink, they didnt care. Food wise, that bean dip, at least that what I thought it was was totally disgusting. Both soups were "out", the salads were "out" as well. I only had 20 min. in there so I don't know if they refilled it or not later, but I am really not liking the direction of where MLLs are heading.

Please note that a number of posts have been deleted due to unhelpful and unnecessary personal invective. While it the season to give it's goodwill and not snark that should be given so please refrain from personal comments.

I have found that the YYC MLL appears "beaten" up since they opened with the bar service. Sure the folks going to YMM can no longer chug back a 26er or wrap their lips around the beer tap for a good fill up, like pumping gas into your car. Still under construction so its still crowded the food is so picked over, long lines for a glass or drinks. It remains a very busy lounge with limited seating.

Here are a few more pics of the NH Lounge in HND.
A copy of the Noodle Bar "menu"
I absolutely love these chocolates
Unfortunately, so does everyone else. That empty tray on the left is where it "should" be
A few more pics of the food spread in the NH lounge. Not really that great of a selection, IMO. And, although it was around 08:20, plenty of booze was available, if you wanted it.
