When remove packets of them by the handful, it really will not surprise me if crisps-in-bowls become necessary.

Thanks for the photo, I'm in AMS at least once a month and I have never seen that spread before! I have seen everything in those photographs except the salads and grapes. I wonder what time you visit if those items are out each time you visit? I always take the morning or early afternoon flights, I wonder if the additional items appear for the evening departures?

AMS Lounge Food & Bev Upgrade
Normally I avoid the AMS Lounge, however I pleasantly surprised when i visited today. There is a significant improvement in the food service with salads, various sandwiches, better soup and dips. The beverages have also changed with more wine and beer offerings. Wasn't able to get pictures as my phone had died. I am sure someone else will. The serving area is now a bit crowed but the a vast improvement on before.

Was there yesterday afternoon and agree it is materially better. A couscous salad, quinoa salad, hummous, crudites, leaf salad, some (primary school packed lunch) sandwiches, better cheese, crisps. And they still have the dutch pepperami. I didn't notice the better drinks, although the delicious chocolate drink is no more...Either way, one can now have a reasonable (and surprisingly healthy) pre-flight nosh.

I’m not an AMS regular but due there next in September so am pleased to hear of these improvements.
Can recall a very lengthy thread a while back (linked below) when - in common with several others - I was critical of the lounge’s F & B offering at the time.
Seriously - Is this a premium offering?
