Based on last seeing it back in January, none... One of the gents faucet was still faulty, temperature was still generally warm, no changes in seating whatsoever so whatever they did there could be behind the scenes like electrical or kitchen related...

Oh thank goodness. Two trips to the awful Pacific Club lounge was enough for me.

Flew out this morning. When I looked at the ceiling I noticed that they either changed position of the air-conditioning unit or replaced it entirely.

Overall though didn't notice any difference from the last time I was there.

Currently in the MNL Lounge. Yup, nothing visually noticeable have changed. Although the air conditioning seems a lot colder than the last time I was here.

I noticed the taste for the noodle soup got worst. They now offer Grilled Liempo (Pork Belly) with Java Rice which was a better option.

Flew out of MNL on Sunday and they are using those large air coolers at least at gate 114 to cool the place. Cold but think they haven't done much on the overall airconditioning of the terminal

I hardly go for the noodle or dimsum at the MNL lounge. Really pitiful quality compared to the ones in HKG or even SIN. TPE was pretty decent too.

When in MNL, I choose the Filipino breakfast offering or the French toast...

I can report that the MNL lounge is now very cool/cold.

Same here. The portable coolers are still there but they're just sitting unplugged and unused because the central air is more than adequate now.
