Wellington domestic lounge
The hot breakfast is removed about 945am.
From memory the dinner comes out at 5pm
I think the hot soup is there for the whole day.

I would think they should have some sort of schedule around when hot food comes out. Maybe ask at your most used lounges, and make a note in your phone? Then it can help you plan whether you eat before you go to the airport or something in future.
If I don’t see something I like in the lounge then I just walk out and go get something from the other shops at the airport.

There used to be a little sign in the main lounges with the timesbby the did. To be honest I haven't seen it for a while but might just not notice it.
