They refreshed the food again a week or so ago. I feel like it's slightly higher quality, but YMMV.

For those not in the know, Rick Bayless would only open an airport restaurant if he could manage bringing in the food himself, and didn't have to go through the existing options, hence, it's of much higher quality.
