Airport food

Like saying eating a cow is vegetarian because a cow eats grass.

I keep telling my wife that I’ve had a good portion of veggies for lunch… concentrated. I suppose thats what they feed pigs before they end up as steaks, right?

Incidently, I’ve recently rediscovered salad. There was a good portion of cabbage with cheese and croutons which accompanied a bunch of lamb chops in Crete. Yummy!

But coming back to airport food: Incidently one of the best lamb shanks with mashed potatoes I ever had was served in the transit area of Terminal 1 at LHR…

Years on, nothing has changed

But Sandown is busy as hell, almost entirely with pilots flying there, eating, and flying back… Clearly this project is doomed to fail

I have been at Arcadia Municipal Airport (X06), I would rank their food as healthier, except pancakes that you get for free when you buy full fuel at 2.5$/Gal

To be fair, Sandown is still a good example of nice and well managed grass root GA airfield: improved their grass runway, has fuel, NO PPR, NO closing hours, OK to camp under the wing, good to fly/walk around IoW…will skip the food though

Bembridge & LeeSolent have tarmacs & nearby beach that Mrs seems to like !

Doesn’t Sandown have a nearby beach too ?

I’m okay with the food :)

Surely more hassle than Bembridge for a quick walk to the beach, but on taxis Sandown airport managed to get few local taxis almost based on their airport…

YUM ! That looks great !!

Thanks Ibra. I note the taxis (to visit osborne house:).

I still remember my free hot dog at Sporty’s 12 years ago . They offer them for lunch every saturday since 1980.

We need more food attraction to make pilots fly !

You just have to laugh at how fast the UK PPL population is getting heavier and heavier
