Morning – There were various Croissants, Muffins, pastries, Fresh fruit, coffee, hot water, cranberry juice, orange juice, milk, variety of cereals (sugar and healthy), bagels with cream cheese or butter.

Afternoon – Tea sandwiches, fresh fruit plus the drinks that are available at all hours (Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite and Water), snacks (Pretzels and Snack Mix), Crustable sandwiches.

Evening – Fresh Vegetables, Hot appetizer (Crab Cakes, small calzones, porgies), various cheeses with crackers and bread, drinks (see above), Bud or bud light, wine of the red and white varieties.

Story time – Cookies and Milk

Later evening – Cordials, Beer and Wine, Variety of desserts (Lemon Tartlets, cheese cake, chocolate things etc.)

I am probably forgetting something but that gives you an idea. We ate most of our meals there and would grab things here and there in the parks occasionally. I would say the quality was pretty good if not better than most of the food in the parks. It was nice to sit and relax and have a beer or a glass of wine in a mostly quiet atmosphere. We would load up on water bottles every morning and reload in the afternoon.
If you pay for the concierge level it makes sense to use the lounge as much as possible or there really isn’t much sense in paying the premium for the other perks. Don’t get me wrong, it was great the way they treat you at that level and being able to get DVD’s for the kids was nice, but those alone are not worth the extra cost. We have kids 6 and 9, so we would come back to the hotel a couple times to relax and recharge. If we had older kids who wanted to spend the entire time in the park, I probably wouldn’t do the concierge level unless they were old enough to send off on their own.

Hope that helps.

PDuckX, Thank you so much! That's exactly the type of updated information I was looking for.

In case you haven't seen it yet, the following thread has pictures of some of the concierge food selections:

And the thread below (in progress) contains direct links by date to DLR food reviews (since the full dining review thread is now over 130 pages long). So far the index thread has links for concierge at DLH and GCH; there may be info on the PPH concierge in the original dining review thread, but they just haven't been added to the index thread yet.
