AUSTRALIA. Airport F&B specialist ARE has partnered with Michelin-star chef Bruno Loubet to open a restaurant at Brisbane Airport’s Domestic Terminal. Named Seeds by Bruno Loubet, it aims to promote healthy eating.
Located in the Qantas Terminal Food Court on Level 2 at the airport, Seeds is offering fresh, natural and sustainable food including poke bowls, fruit salads, smoothies, juices and coffee.
The food is presented under the direction of Loubet, who has combined tastes and textures with the aim of providing an “incredible culinary experience”, Brisbane Airport said.
Loubet, who resides in Queensland, made his name working in UK restaurants (winning a number of Times Restaurant of the Year awards) and was the winner of the Young Chef of the Year award back in 1985. He is passionate on issues of sustainability, and is currently having a cooking school built in the Gold Coast hinterland.
Brisbane Airport Corporation General Manager, Airline and Retail Management Andrew Brodie said:“Consumers are much more conscious of their diet than they were a decade ago and they expect and deserve to have the best F&B offerings available to them at the airport.
“Seeds delivers an exciting menu that complements what is currently on offer in our Domestic Terminal, and by using locally-sourced produce from suppliers with a track record of sustainability, they are ensuring customers have the tastiest and freshest meals possible.”
