US. Tastes on the Fly has introduced a Starbird quick-service chicken restaurant at San Francisco International Airport’s (SFO) new Harvey Milk Terminal 1, which opened earlier this month.
The terminal, which is being developed in phases, is named after California’s first openly gay elected public official, who was assassinated in 1978.
The restaurant features chicken in sandwiches, salads and tacos. Its menu also includes breakfast sandwiches and grab-and-go items.
Tastes on the Fly CEO Michael Levine said: “We are delighted to bring Starbird, the premium quick-service chicken restaurant, and a local Bay Area favourite, to the Harvey A Milk Terminal. Their core values align with our values and those of the San Francisco Airport.”
According to Tastes on the Fly, the airport location will follow the same operational standards as other Starbird restaurants. Starbird has a ‘positively delicious chicken’ tagline. Its chickens are raised locally and sustainably farmed; bread is fresh baked and vegetables are cut and pickled in-house.
Starbird CEO and Founder Arron Noveshen commented: “We are thrilled to work with Tastes on the Fly to expand Starbird into SFO and to continue to be a part of the Bay Area community. We are committed to making Starbird a perfect fit for travellers looking for a high-quality, on-the-go meal.”
Tastes on the Fly operates 25 restaurants in four US airports. The company underlines its commitment to bringing local culinary icons to the airport environment. As reported, Tastes on the Fly’s Antonio Alicea, of Stephanie’s at Boston Logan International Airport, claimed the F&B Team Member of the Year award at this year’s Airport Food & Beverage (FAB) Awards.
