Oftentimes at airports, if you've passed through security with a rumble in your tummy, you're in for a gustatory letdown. That is, unless you're at SFO's Terminal 2. As almost a year's worth of fortunate flyers now know, this shiny portal to 30,000 feet houses some of the finest fare of any hanger in the cosmos. This Weekly's foodie tip? Take a trip!
Before stowing your belongings in any overhead bins, stop by Napa Farms Market. "Missed flights and long delays aren't half as bad" when Carlie C's got access to Kara's Cupcakes, Acme Bread, and more. "What else could you ask for?" Perhaps the Tyler Florence Rotisserie, which is also inside. Cherylynn N gushes, "The porchetta sandwich is rich, fat, and juicy... the crackling skin adds an intense crunch. Mouthwatering!" Down the bend, Anna A goes loco for Andalé: "I ordered a delicious plate of huevos rancheros, as well as the Mayan burrito. Unlike most depressing food at airports, this was absolutely bright and varied."
Jet-setting gourmands, veer your rollaway bags toward Vino Volo. Rachel R reports, "I had a delicious prosciutto sandwich with brie and fig jam for only $6!" Those more health conscious should check out The Plant for fresh, organic vegetable juices, Blue Bottle coffee, or light bites like the wheat-wrapped breakfast burrito or house-made beet and lentil veggie burger. Mike G yelps, "Why can't every airport in the country, nay the world, have one of these!?" Steps away, treat your sweet tooth to something sugary at Natalie's. Lola S suggests, "It's the perfect place to get your in-flight snack, and you can use your candy as toppings for the Pinkberry fro-yo next door!"
Craving a cocktail with your comestibles? Look no farther than Lark Creek Grill. Dishing out American cuisine with a twist, they've got everything from sustainable seafood to a chipotle pulled pork sandwich. "They also have the best ginger beer ever, so go to town on some Dark 'n' Stormies!" affirms Mike V. Finally, find signature adult drinks like the Love and Haight (chili-infused tequila with blood orange juice, lime, and honey) alongside fancy foodstuffs at Cat Cora. Tinna H gives her seal of approval: "Lobster mac 'n' cheese with chunks of cold-water lobster and Gruyère? It gives me reason to take a few extra hours off work to get to the airport way too early for my next flight!"
