I sent the desired travel itin for our 2015 long hol to the missus this afternoon. Explained we'll be spending 4 hours in the QR Al Mourjan lounge in DOH and gave her the lounge review http://www.ausbt.com.au/photos-qatar...lounge-in-doha . Her feedback was - "why no food photo???"
Probable problem for me only due to my utter dependence on Asia Miles for long haul travel, but I do not enjoy being the sashimi entree (high JL YQ).

The JL onboard catering is the best of any oneworld carrier. I can't say that about their F lounge at NRT though. Beef curry, some sort of cream soup, pickles, etc. It's always the same.

need to post sometime...but with 2 Pax on a 744 in F SFO-HKG earlier this year, I had the opportunity to sample and enjoy a large portion of the menu. Oh and for the Haven, I've ordered several things off the menu before when they looked good. The portion sizes aren't that large.

Just dropped by the haven. Portions of tge main was tiny. If you can only order 1 then its normal to feel hungry after. I got served 2 pcs of beef cheek - probably the amount of meat fda would hv recommended... 50grams?

The challenge for me was to stay up given the very long day, I was conscious of both b-kpf "I wake up to the announcement coming from the flight deck, telling us we’ll be arriving at Toronto Pearson about 30 minutes from now. DRAT! I SLEPT THROUGH IT ALL??!!" and Derek Low's "I’d slept for 6 hours, or $6,000 worth of the flight", so:

Reminds of the time when I flew HKG-MEL on CX F (yes it was a long time ago), and I dozed off to sleep right after take off. I heard the 'clink, clink' of silverware on plates, but was really comatosed to it all. Then suddenly, I heard a 'Mr Betsy, time to wake up.. we're landing soon.'
I missed both supper and breakfast !
