What about Varsity hot dogs? It would be a good way to encourage mask wearing

Eesh! I was trying to stay away from anything Varsity-related! That could end badly for both the clubs themselves and subsequent flights...

At ORD right now, great selection of food - both Italian beef and polish sausage as well as a cold selection of sandwiches and salads. Modified, manned bar in the back room.

I’m impressed

Unknown. I had a very tight connection, which basically gave me just enough time to ride the shuttle to the south stop, pop my head in the front door long enough to see they were open, but unfortunately not long enough to actually enter in and grab refreshments.

I associate BBQ with Texas, Alabama (Dreamland), Mississippi (MEM airport), NC, maybe KS but not Atlanta or Georgia.

OTOH chicken and waffles would be great for breakfast/brunch.

While I understand that, don't underestimate the quality of BBQ that can be found in/around Atlanta.

Don't know if this was mentioned or not yet, but ATL B had hot food again yesterday. Jerk chicken and mac and cheese from a self-serve buffet. Back to the "not refilling it fast enough because ATL B is a zoo" complaints I guess.

It does look like there is some construction in creating a new buffet line in the club though.

I concur That's like comparing tacos to lasagna. NC bbq is different than KC or TX BBQ or even some in AZ/NM. People should not be comparing like they are the same food, sauce, smoking technique, wood.

I saw the jerk chicken + pasta as well, in E Sky Club yesterday

MIA's food was above average when I was there back in February so I imagine it'll be good for your visit too.

Yeah, DFW hasn't seen any improvement. It's the worst in the morning.
