That 'other' first class lounge is The Pier First, and while that's not yet reopened it's slated to be back later this month...

July Beverage & Food Menu - The Wing F (further cuts!)
Photos enclosed of the beverages and food for lunch & dinner. Massive how many options were removed and the champagne also downgraded to what they serve in Business Class (bye bye Deutz Brut Blanc de Blancs/Cuvee William Deutz)
Note: I visit this lounge multiple times a month for the 3-4 years so this is not coming from a pre vs post-covid perspective. Sorry for the large photos :-(

Is CX the Wing First Class moving to a "Hong Kong style cafe" model?
Not one single seafood dish - no fish/no shrimp/no seafood... Everything just screams cheap.
CX can't even afford to serve a beef burger now!
Now you wonder why most CX loyal customers are upset! Long haul business class flights are HK$90,000-100,000 this summer to US/Canada. This is an example of "pay more but less values"! As Covid is receding from people's minds, this kind of BS cutback will backfire on CX spectacularly!
I am going straight to Centurion lounge when I fly CX and Oneworld carriers next time from Hong Kong!

The dessert leaves a lot to be desired though, had some ice cream and then to the Qantas Lounge for cheesecake.

By the way, djsflynn , do you happen to know when CX plans to reopen the lower level (and shower rooms) of The Wing J? Thanks a lot!
