SUPER helpful! I like the appetizer choices that you were served over NYE. However, they all seem bite-sized / canape-sized / cocktail-party sized as opposed to appetizer-sized. Is my impression from the pics correct? Is my impression that the AKL evening offerings are more substantial? I think I even saw soups in your AKL pictures.
We may still stick with Poly, but would need to make some additional dining plans for the evening.
I would say the current state of lounge offerings is definitely on the “small plate” scale of things. It’s meant to be a taste, not much more. They have been more meal’ish in the past but less so these days. Although I’m OK with that - the quality/preparation/flavor is also much better (in my opinion) so it’s a trade-off. Years ago it was sticky wings and meatballs, it’s a bit more foodie/small plate now. Whether that’s better or not is very subjective!
