Earl of Sandwich, Boston, MA USA

I was on my way to Bonnaroo music festival and I knew having a solid meal before the trip commenced would start me off well. But at the domestic section of Terminal E that Southwest and AirTran fly out of? Hmmm… That wasn’t where I was expecting to find ample food choices. I had been […]

Au Bon Pain, Dallas Airport (DFW), TX USA

The ABP club was sitting there on its lonesome, sandwiched in between two burly looking meals. I would have never noticed it if I wasn’t on the hunt for it. Why do I subject myself to bad club sandwiches? I thought this both before and after purchasing this club sandwich. But Au Bon Pain had […]

Wolfgang Puck Express, Chicago O’Hare Airport, IL, USA

I stayed up all night for my flight to Boston from Beijing. I wanted to start adjusting to the time difference before I left China, and an all-nighter provides a great platform to do so. Check-in, have a beer on the way to security (you can BYOB in the airport) hit up the lounge for […]
