Qantas Sydney International Business Class Lounge Food Review

What's a lounge without good food? The Qantas Sydney International Business Class lounge will not disappoint.

You will need a premium economy ticket or above to enter. Of course, if you are a Gold or above Qantas or One World frequent flyer that's your gold entry ticket too. And if you are a paying member for Qantas Club, entry won't be denied. For the rest of us cattle class people, there are other ways of gaining entry too like getting a voucher from Qantas platinum credit cards.

If you are here on a stop-over, this is a great place to get a free shower. The bathrooms are stocked with towels and very aromatic toiletries.



There free wifi, lots of place to charge up, however there no PC terminals. So BYO.

There is also not really anywhere to lay down as all chairs are single sofas. 

For the little ones, there is a free play area as well.

Now for the food...


The food at this lounge is quite international. There was fresh salads, in fact there were 7 different choices - ranging from Mediterranean salads, green salads to a more Italian fare.

For hot food, there was a rich and super creamy broccoli with blue cheese soup. And a huge range of bread rolls - white, rye, whole grain, multigrain, sourdough...

There was choice of Chinese dim sum - siumai (烧卖) and BBQ pork buns (叉烧包). Also, super fragrant jasmine rice with a chicken and vegetable stir fry.

There is a barista in house to brew your favorite espresso coffee. Top notch barista I must say. And there was a very good range of gelato too!


There is also a self serve bar with a good range of Australian and major international beers and liqueurs. The bar is also stocked with a good range of Australian red, white and bubbles.

Especially if you are riding cattle class, I strongly suggest to fill up before the flight. The food we had on our flight was borderline inedible!

Hi guys! It's day 6 of our COVID-19 stay-at-home plan. I've decided to resurrect my blog by sharing our meals with you guys. Tonight on the menu is my version of a Kimchi Pork Stew. It's super easy to make and you don't have to follow the vegetable recommendations strictly here. You can use whatever veggies you like. So here's it! It's best served with rice. Ingredients 200g Pork - Best cuts are belly if not shoulder or leg is fine. 1 tablespoon Oil 1 cup Kimchi 1 tablespoon Korean spicy red pepper paste (Gochujang) 3 cups water Your choice of mushrooms and vegetables. 1 packet of spicy Korean instant noodles 300g Medium tofu sliced (Optional) Spring onion to garnish Marinade Mixture 2 tablespoon of wine - Chinese cooking wine, Mirin/ cooking sake, or sherry 1 tablespoon of soy sauce 1 teaspoon of black pepper Method 1) Cut pork into thin slices.

COVID-19 Stay at Home Day 7: Crispy Rice Cakes Recipe

Hey guys! Just sharing a quick analogy about numbers and COVID-19 and why you should avoid the disease before I post my recipe of the day. Imagine you have a packet of M&Ms with 100 little chocolates in it. Now you're being told between 2-6 pieces in that packet has cyanide in it, and there are a few that will give you violent diahorrea what would you do?  1) Throw the whole packet away 2) Eat it cause I won't die from diahorrea 3) Eat it cause what's the risk of dying, it's just 2-6%?! 4) Eat it and share it with all your friends and family and even your doggy! Personally, the most logical answer for me is to throw the whole packet away. It's the same reason why I'm staying at home to help stop the spread of COVID-19. I guess it's really food for thought! That said, here's my recipe for today! I've had some leftover rice from last night and NO WAY, not wasting any rice as it's super hard to find rice out there. I've turn my lef

RRRIIINNNNNNGGGGG!!!!! The fire alarm went off in large apartment block nearby. Residents started evacuating the building. It was a very interesting sight watching hundreds of people trying to practice social distancing while being evacuated! In the news, a nursing home was evacuated due to a fire as well. Social distancing was very challenging in that situation too. While during this challenging times, social distancing is so important. It also helps to reduces risk of the spread of disease in situations of emergency when social distancing is a challenge. Staying at home is vital. I've been practicing this question whenever I want to go out. Can I do what I want to do outside from my home? Shopping. Mostly can be done online. Exercising. Challenging, but not impossible to do at home. Getting sunshine and fresh air. The balcony is an amazing place to be! Work. Yep, I'm fortunate to be set up at my desk. Play. Defintely have more than enough online games to pl
