The bimonthly news publication for aviation professionals.
South Florida-based gourmet chef and caterer The Pickled Beet has launched its 2026 summer private aviation menu.
“Our summer private aviation menu is curated for the discerning traveller who values a luxurious inflight dining experience,” says chef Elizabeth Willard, founder and CEO. “I'm thrilled for passengers to experience the culinary artistry that our new chef, Jean Amengual Triebe, has brought to life.”
Every in-flight menu item is crafted sourcing only the freshest local organic ingredients, packaged and delivered to the aircraft right before take off. This allows passengers to enjoy a taste of what South Florida has to offer including fresh, wild caught fish, vibrant organic soups and salads, and bright citrus flavours.
The summer private aviation menu includes boarding canapes such as the Key West Shrimp Peruvian Ceviche with crispy cancha, sweet potato fondant and micro cilantro; appetisers such as the Florida Lobster Caesar featuring baby gem lettuce, sourdough croutons, aged Grana Padano and a zesty jalapeño dressing; and mouth-watering entrees including the Black Angus Short Rib a la Perigueux paired with buttermilk whipped potatoes, fire-roasted wild forest mushrooms and sauce Perigourdine and the Roasted Four Story Hill Farm Free-Range Chicken served with delicate chicken mousseline, grilled garden vegetables and an aromatic thyme-rosemary jus.
Passengers can also enjoy caviar service with premium royal beluga, ossetra and golden kaluga caviar served with traditional garnishes, buckwheat blinis, egg mimosa and creme fraiche. Dessert is not to be missed and features the South Miami Guava Cobbler Guava Crumble and more.
The entire summer private aviation menu is available via The Pickled Beet website.
Airports served by The Pickled Beet include: President Donald J Trump International, Miami International, Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International, Fort Lauderdale Executive, Miami Opa-Locka Executive, Miami Executive and North Perry.
