- A woman with two men ? None of the three watching the game on TV ? The cup of coffee likely to be cold be the time the man has finished eating ? The luggage on the far right not having a name tag ? It can't be the man being barefoot : he had had a shower and was careful not to placing them in unclean socks and shoes ;)
The stuff which had been melted on the macaroni was not cheese to start with, but so-called American cheese, a gastronomic oxymoron :)
Thanks for sharing !
The fact that the woman is barefoot and displaying her feet with complete disregard in an exclusive environment is bothersome. Her continuing to do so when the man is eating in front of her shows a lack of courtesy and the sight is less than appetizing. Let alone get into a debate whether her feet are offensive to one's olfactory sense. I can't understand how the man can continue to eat under this setting. I wonder if the U.S. is the only country where the supreme and God giving right of the individual trumps out everything and everyone else. What a stark contrast to other places like Japan where the welfare of the community or society takes precedence over the individual.

- At least the lobster was not a by-product of fish. :P When in Rome do as the Romans they say.
Thank you for your comments Marathon.
I disagree : it was the same since a long time ago. The only difference is that the electronics have replaced the TV
50 usd entrance fee is a bit expensive in my opinion
Is Dean fearing a famous chef ?
There are a few things wrong with this scene.
The TV and maybe the bare feet ? ;)
the beef filet with lobster macaroni
Interesting meal for once, except the melted cheese as you said, but anyway it wasn't well executed with this overcooked meat
The ice cream looks good
See you soon
- It could be but you need to factor in how much you get in return. The key is your perception of value. If you feel satisfied with your purchase, then the amount paid was worth every cent. In my case I was able to get a relaxing shower, eat decently and have a new experience under my belt, so I was happy.

- In some circles he is. Do you think many people would know who Serge Gainsbourg is in that lounge? ;)

- Maybe it is all in the mind of the viewer. :P What would have Magritte said about this scene? Ceci n'est pas une pipe

- I agree. On other versions that I have seen, this beef is served with a pesto sauce on top. I then becomes an Italian-American dish, don't you think? ;) Maybe a touch of foie gras will add refinement and it would truly be worthy of a F class meal.
I don't see any pretzel in the sundae.
- In this case it was mixed inside the ice cream. I took a bite and was perplexed for a second.
Merci Gilbert.
Thank you so much for that comment! It validates all of my opinions of most mainline American food. Perhaps they should have deep-fried the lobster macaroni...?
- Glad to be of help.
Perhaps they should have deep-fried the lobster macaroni...?
- And also serve fried chocolate bars as dessert to complete the ensemble. ;)
Thank you Lsmick3 for stopping and commenting.
Perhaps more shower booths are needed.
I thought you were a Platinum member. That's why I was surprised to read that you paid to get in.
There are a few things wrong with this scene.--> if the guy in a suit likes the smelly feet whilst he's eating, I don't see where is the problem. It adds some taste to the meal (LOL)
I chose the beef filet with lobster macaroni--> I would have prefered lobster with macaroni, but hey, it's a US airline.
I don't see any pretzel in the sundae.
Thank you Adan.
- I think AA's Admiral clubs were part of the benefits and every since they pulled out, AMEX decided to give more value to its card members by creating their own lounges. This became a welcome development since it had forced U.S. airlines to rethink their offerings and update their lounges. Nothing like competition to set the bar higher.

- I'm PLT inside, not outside. ;)

- Maybe you are right, there were other places to sit. To each his own. :P

Thank you Bernard.
The Centurion Lounge has excellent food offerings, but the $50 entry fee is a little steep IMO especially considering how crowded it is inside (not really an escape from the masses). That said, when you need a shower, you need a shower no matter the cost! The abundance of L'Occitane products is nice.

- You should have offered to massage those feet...
How can a cleaning crew miss this?
- Same observation on a DL flight. A wrapper was right in front of my seat in plain sight. Unacceptable since the plane was on the ground in DTW for 2+ hours between flights.
Finally a meal worthy of F...or so I thought.
- At first glance, that looks a pretty generous portion. I think that is a standard beef portion (size of a fist), we just get used to American-sized portions. The lobster pasta is a nice accompaniment. The starter looks good, but the salad looks long-haul Y (if you take away the bacon).
PS - You got the fancy pink tug^^
- Paying the $50 fee is less painful here than at AA or UA clubs. I guess everything is relative. L'Occitane products were available in sample size at the SFO AMEX lounge. I guess at DFW they are more cost effective.

- What I should have done is offer to take a picture of them for Foot Fetish Illustrated. :P
The starter looks good, but the salad looks long-haul Y (if you take away the bacon).
- The starter and the salad are kind of repetitive. Why not mix them together and call it an appetizer salad.
You got the fancy pink tug^^ ???
Thank you Michael for your comments as usual.
- Very true indeed, the value is much greater here than any other domestic lounge I've seen.
The starter and the salad are kind of repetitive. Why not mix them together and call it an appetizer salad.
- Well, this problem could be easily solved by serving proteins-based appetizers too ;)
You got the fancy pink tug^^ ???
- In the picture of your plane from the jetbridge, there is a pink tug for pushback!
- Oh yes...I was pushed by a pink Texan tug. Who would have thought?

-I'll add the man-bun to the list.
This AMEX lounge seemed a bit busier and more crowded than the SFO one which is the only one that I can compare it to.
-I was going to comment that it looked like a light crowd by DFW standards. That lounge gets so crowded it's unusable.
One must understand that Americans love gooey things and this is exemplified by melted cheese in savory things or melted chocolate and caramel in sweets.
-So true, LOL! How we can take something as beautiful and alive as cheese and reduce it to that is shameful. But we have other good qualities...
Thank you again and happy flying.
Yes, the man-bun is an eyesore in my humble opinion, but to each his own. ;)
I was going to comment that it looked like a light crowd by DFW standards. That lounge gets so crowded it's unusable.
- That defeats the purpose of the lounge, which is supposed to be an oasis of tranquility.
But we have other good qualities...
- There are always two sides to a coin. ;)
