Gordon Ramsay Serves Deluxe Airport Food

Filed under: Wings


Would you go to the airport just to eat at a restaurant? Airport food has been steadily getting better over the last few years with more and more middle-range restaurants working their way into airports but Gordon Ramsay Plane Food at Heathrow Airport seems a step beyond that. The Telegraph sent Jasper Gerard to check out the fare at the restaurant in the swanky new Terminal 5 in a review as heavy in plane metaphors as you might expect a review about an airport restaurant to be.

Gordon Ramsay Plane Food offers take-away food and promises to serve food fast for those who have to make a flight. It doesn't look like an airport restaurant with it's large windows and restrained decor. Gerrard seems pleased with the meal but raises the question that is on my mind too, who would get to the airport early enough to have a fine dining experience before boarding? Certainly it's unlikely that many will wade through the ridiculous security lines to eat in another Ramsay restaurant unless they have a flight but kudos to Ramsay for at least attempting to add a little elegance back to the world of flying.
